Changes to foreign trade conditions also bring about changes to the main transport routes and directions. Lithuanian transport companies must perfect their ability to adapt in a shifting environment, to predict and readjust to the possible changes in the flow of goods, and expand the capability to build a new foundation and appliance of transportation technologies. To support this, a questionnaire researching transport must be made. This article covers an analysis of planning and conducting the research and the data processing methodology used to determine the main directions of the flow of goods of Lithuanian transport companies, as well as criteria concerning competitiveness among the companies.
