Abstract

The article analyzes the indicators of economic sectors on the example of mechanical engineering and construction. A comparison of reporting at a time when companies invested money in the technological development of organizations with ordinary activities was carried out. In mechanical engineering, Rostec companies and united corporations – aircraft and shipbuilding - were analyzed. In the construction sector, the authors analyzed the LSR, Setl Group and Etalon groups.
SWOT-, PEST-analysis and analysis of Porter’s five forces were carried out, BCG matrices were constructed. The author’s categorization of companies according to their behavior, depending on the focus on profitability or growth, is carried out. The features of companies depending on their age, belonging to the public sector are outlined. Based on the model constructed in the article, the development of a number of industries and trends in them are predicted. Clear criteria have been defined for combining the company’s features for implementation in the given industries. Assumptions are made about the specifics of the analyzed industries.
Comparative analysis has shown that in addition to industry specifics, the focus of companies on profitability and growth can vary according to a number of criteria given in the work.
