Impact of the decision on transport systems’ reliability in emergency situations

In the study, the authors focused on determination of reliability indicators of the transport systems, which currently constitute the Polish Armed Forces’ equipment. The methods of research of car fleets composed of distinct types of vehicles are presented. The algorithms of reliability indicators’ determination addressed in the study can serve to analyze other set of transportation means used in rescue, seasonal transport and specialized transportation assignments, as well as to determine the security level of any mission conducted. The appearance of information technology allowed transferring the paper-based registration system of operational occurrences into an integrated information system. It enables to follow the history of transportation fleets including single pieces of the equipment. The knowledge of reliability of particular types of the vehicles allows for proper planning of missions within the framework of possessed transport assets capacity. The study presents the method of achieving the intended objective to increase the effectiveness of management of motor vehicles fleet used intermittently. The algorithm for the selection of a vehicle or a group of vehicles for execution of tasks, developed on the basis of analytical procedures, envisages the assignment of mobile assets, complication and complexity of their structures, the level of modernity, operational history and branch regulations. Determined reliability indicators for particular groups of vehicles can be implemented into the Multilevel Information System.
