Modern cities are social and economic organisations whose objective is to cater for the needs of its users. The practices they employ in doing so are, however, a far cry from those used by businesses. A city would subject its economics to social and environmental conditions and thus elects the social objectives as prevalent. Urban logistics ties in perfectly with that, subscribing to social logistics each time when those objectives are achieved by shaping flows of materials and people. Logistics comes to the fore here, by facilitating deployment of correct, from viewpoint of shaping material flows, measures aimed at equal opportunities for elderly and disabled. Specific requirements, with which urban spaces should be compliant to honour the needs of seniors and disabled, were described in the paper.

Modern cities are very impressive with their diversified and wide-open spaces - both public and private. Navigating through them, especially by those with mobility impairments, should be equally as important as exquisite land developments. Otherwise, the disabled are left unable to access that refined infrastructure. In order to address that cities are undertaking tangible measures aimed at increasing mobility of disabled city dwellers.

Senior-friendly urban information system - case study Increasing urban population, ageing and growing importance of the elderly - those are three independent trends which are currently observed in urban areas. Place of a senior person within society is changing. Overlapping with above trends is inefficient city management as a consequence of growing and denser city population in big agglomerations. It is a common practice that seniors are perceived as second-class citizens. This is reflected by city politics which overlooks measures facilitating day-to-day existence of the elderly in urban space to the benefit of younger generations. City council is allocated a predetermined budget to cater for needs of various age groups. Those resources should be split in a just way, equally between all citizen groups. The evidence the city governing body is doing just that is assurance of mobility to all groups - including seniors. Bearing in mind their health, fitness, access to infrastructure should be facilitated by customising urban information systems to fit perception of the elderly. This way city management shapes city space, thus providing the space in question with new functions, enabling new bahaviours within the framework of the space that has been available so far. Creating a new system of urban information is therefore a management related problem that has to be dealt with taking city related factors into consideration. Decision makers have to solve a conflict that is observed between different groups of interest.

The application of supply chain analysis to the evaluation of the effectiveness of social service organizations The identification and analysis of value chains is a way to find the sources of an organization’s in-/efficiency, and an opportunity to explore how an organization is managed. Having in mind that an “organization network” is a form similar, in its functioning, to a separate organization, one may, using the value chain concept, investigate the management of local activity programmes, as of the networks they are. The researched partnerships introduced a management innovation, in that the social service provision organizations were brought together to form one chain. The researched organizations providing social services have introduced innovations in management that are supposed to unite organizations providing social services in a single chain. This kind of approach allows to obtain additional benefits, including the joint management of subjects composing the chain. In practice, it is also connected with sharing benefits between the participants in the chain, as well as replacing the elements of competition and suspicion with cooperation and trust. Delivering value to the beneficiary, under the provision of social services, is important not only from the point of view of humanity, but also in order to maximize the use of resources, usually insufficient to meet all the needs. The presented studies of supply chains of social services in Silesia showed, that some features of these newly created areas being subject of joint management, still crave for numerous improvements. What may help is logistics, in particular business logistics, having years of experience in the area of observation and active participation in the chain management. However, unconditional adaptation of these experiences is not possible due to the fact that developed methods are based on cost and maintenance compromises, which are insensitive to human needs when the service cost for the chain is not sufficiently profitable. Therefore, it is necessary to implement different methods of managing these chains, principles of which are described in the social logistics. The authors are convinced that combination of the efforts of the organizers of social services and experienced logistics professionals can bring a double benefit. In practical terms it may help to improve the delivery of services with no deterioration of their quality, and to increase the range of services (quantitative or qualitative) based on specific resources. In the epistemological dimension it may enable to develop rules to adapt the theory of logistics for the socially significant needs. Therefore, this paper can be considered as the beginning of the discussion in this regard.

Zastosowanie analizy łańcucha dostaw dla oceny efektywności organizacji dostarczających usługi społeczne Określenie i analiza łańcucha wartości to sposób na poszukiwanie źródeł sprawności i niesprawności przedsiębiorstwa, możliwość zbadania sposobu zarządzania. Pamiętając, że „sieć organizacji” jest formą zbliżoną w sposobie funkcjonowanie do jednostkowej organizacji możemy za pomocą łańcucha wartości zbadać sposób zarządzania w sieci jaką jest program aktywności lokalnej. W analizowanych organizacjach dostarczających usługi społeczne wprowadzono innowacje w zarządzaniu polegającą na łączeniu organizacji dostarczających usługi społeczne w jeden łańcuch.

The efficient delivery of social services is important not only for the functioning of the community, but also for the improvement of practice to provide these services. Striving for perfection can have its source in many areas of functioning, including the sphere of business. Hence the search for opportunities for improvement at the source of logistics, in particular social logistics. Managing supply chains underpinning modern logistics, provides a much more sophisticated ways to improve flow of elements, except that for the purposes described in this article the range of adjustment tools and/or strategies to meet the needs of delivery of social services needs to be considered. Identification and analysis of the value chain is a way to search for sources of both efficiency and inefficiency of an organization and serves as an opportunity to explore how it should be managed. Bearing in mind that "network organization" is a form similar to the functioning of the individual organizations, we can use the value chain in order to examine the management of the network, which in fact are public and social partnerships. These organizations providing social services have introduced innovations in management that are supposed to unite organizations providing social services in a single chain. Such a connection can be the starting point in the application of the logistic approach both in the organization of social service delivery, as well as to evaluate the effectiveness of providing services to beneficiaries. An attempt to adapt logistics experience in this area opens up a new field of research and gives an opportunity to change how to configure resources for social service delivery.

Miasto jest środowiskiem życia ludzi, dobrowolnie wybierających konkretną przestrzeń jako miejsce spełnienia społecznego, politycznego i środowiskowego, oferując w zamian swoją solidarność z innymi użytkownikami dla dobra powszechnego. Polskie społeczeństwo jest coraz starsze, jednocześnie wydłuża się długość życia. Nie bez znaczenia jest wpływ starzenia się społeczeństwa na jakościową stronę funkcjonowania ludzi starszych w miastach. Czynnikami egzogenicznymi są obecnie występujące warunki społeczne, gospodarcze, zdrowotne i kulturowe. Istotną cechą wpływającą na percepcję jakości życia seniorów jest stopień ich mobilności. Natura problemu mobilności ma wysoce interdyscyplinarny charakter. Celem artykułu jest zaakcentowanie szczególnej sytuacji ludzi starszych w przestrzeni miejskiej w perspektywie mobilnościowej.
