Abstract

Goal. The main purpose of the study is to develop a theoretical model that would help manage the complexity in the tourism industry.
Tasks. This article attempts to conduct a theoretical analysis of the criticality factors characterizing the supply chain in the tourism sector. To achieve this goal, a descriptive analysis of the tourism industry, its nature, main participants and components that have the greatest impact on it was carried out.
Methodology. The authors used such research methods as statistical analysis, observation, generalization, description and graphical modeling.
Results. The article aims to explore possible interconnections in tourism supply chains as a way to reduce the complexity of the tourism industry and better manage it.
Conclusions. The article provides the basis for a future empirical study that will explore the strengths and critical aspects characterizing the various levels of the supply chain in tourism. This document is a preliminary stage of research aimed at a deeper analysis of the phenomena occurring during the integration of participants in the tourism supply chain within a single project aimed at stimulating the development of tourism in the region.
