Abstract: The issues and tools of improving the effectiveness of production system management, especially in the context of a growing dynamics of the technological process, are among the most important in the theory and practice of management. Identification of the development vector and priorities is possible only upon evaluation of the object’s current state. Determination of the new approaches of a complex development of the evaluated so­cial and economic object requires improving the mechanisms of assessment of its condition. The author justifies the relevance of introducing a new “production entropy†concept and suggest the evaluation matrix of measuring the depth of entropy trends in the production functions, management processes, organizational systems under study. The evaluation matrix model covers a variety of options in the three-dimensional space forming a vertical metric scale “negentropy – entropy†. The three-dimensional matrix (M3D) model which pos­sesses the features of the constructive organization in the system space of interrelations of functions and purposeful processes was considered as the reference sample of the production system. For the most effective solution of the tasks set the author uses graphic modeling of conceptual objects as the means of formalizing the “visual design†. Graphic and mathematical modeling has made it possible to coordinate production processes and functions, create the form and the mathematical model of the production function within a single system en­vironment. Controlling the production entropy will ensure timely identification of the risks of plunging production systems into a state of process disorder and functional chaos, and, accordingly, take measures to minimize them.
