2024: Computers with foreign keyboards and mice will not be able to get into the register of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation
On April 8, 2024, it became known that the Ministry of Industry and Trade intends to change the rules for including automated workplaces (AWS) in the Register of Russian Radio Electronics. This list will not be able to include desktop computers equipped with monitors, keyboards and mice of foreign production.
According to CNews, the deputy head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade Vasily Shpak told about the innovations. AWS refers to a desktop PC (monitor and system unit or all-in-one solution) equipped with the minimum set of peripheral devices necessary for working with it - a keyboard and a mouse. Additionally, the system can be equipped with a printer, scanner, etc. As of the beginning of April 2024, the register of the Ministry of Industry and Trade contains many Russian AWS that are supplied with the Chinese periphery.
In accordance with the new rules, manufacturers of domestic AWS will not be able to include them in the register of the Ministry of Industry and Trade if foreign peripheral equipment is found in the solutions in the presence of domestic analogues. According to Shpak, suppliers of high-quality Russian peripheral equipment, in particular, keyboards, are present on the domestic market. Among domestic manufacturers of AWS and computer peripherals (monitors, keyboards, mice, etc.), companies such as F + tech-Marvel, Kraftway, Aquarius, Depo, ICL, IRU and Lightcom are named. At the same time, as noted, the products of Russian vendors remain unclaimed.
 | This [2024] year, we plan to make appropriate regulatory decisions - so that the Russian automated workplace is indeed the one that uses all possible technical solutions presented in the register, "says the deputy head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade.[1] |  |

The structure VK of LLC "" in VK Digital Technologies early July 2023 received a contract for the implementation of one of the stages of the project to transfer officials from to Telegram Russian communication services for 2.5 million. rub This was done as part of a large purchase to scale the automated workplace of a civil servant (AWS GS) to the regions, it follows from the procurement documents posted at the end of June on the Ministry of Digital Development portal, state procurements according to "." Sheets According to the terms of reference for the purchase, VK assumes the obligation to scale the number of accounts from 250 thousand to 600 thousand. This was announced on August 4, 2023 by the press service of the deputy. State Dumas RUSSIAN FEDERATION Anton Nemkin
PA WS includes a secure, messenger developed VK and combining correspondence, video calls, mail, calendar, cloudy storage and an "internal portal." Ministry of Digital Development He has been developing the system since the fall of 2021. Authorities have already begun to connect to the system: as a representative of the Deputy Prime Minister previously reported, Dmitry Chernyshenko 200 thousand users have already connected to the service as of August 2023. According to official, 250 to data governments thousand officials used the automated workplace of a civil servant in April 2023. Starting from 2024, the GS AWS will become a mandatory service for all civil servants.
According to the publication, according to the terms of reference for the purchase, for 2.5 million rubles. the contractor undertakes the provision of services to ensure round-the-clock technical support, administration and uninterrupted operation of software for communication services for authorities, state institutions and state extrabudgetary funds. The maximum purchase cost is 907.4 million rubles. As explained in the Ministry of Digital Development, we are talking about the so-called procurement with an indefinite volume - this approach to the case is used when it is impossible to immediately understand what amount of work or services will be required to get the desired result. "In this case, the customer determines two prices - the initial maximum contract price and the initial unit price."
| | There is little doubt that foreign platforms, like foreign vendors, are completely unfriendly in relation to ours. to the country Remaining accessible to our citizens, they often aim to collect shamelessly personal data Russians for further transfer to the use of Western special services and governments, "said Anton Nemkin. | |
| | That is why it is so important to translate our public sector, where a large amount of sensitive information is concentrated, from those platforms that can behave unpredictably, he added. | |
907.4 million rubles will be spent on replacing Telegram for officials in Russia
In June 2023, the Ministry of Digital Development of the Russian Federation launched a tender for the creation of a single solution for officials to replace foreign services and instant messengers, in particular Telegram. It is assumed that the new messenger will complement the automated workplace of a civil servant (AWS GS) in the regions.
According to Vedomosti, citing materials on the public procurement website, it is planned to spend 907.4 million rubles on the project for the period from October 1, 2023 to September 20, 2024. According to the publication, the GS AWS includes a secure messenger developed by VK and combining correspondence, video calls, mail, calendar, cloud storage and an "internal portal." The system was created on the basis of the corporate messenger VK Teams according to the tender of the Ministry of Digital Development, announced in the fall of 2021. In accordance with the requirements of the new purchase, the contractor will have to provide the necessary level of cryptographic protection of information when transferring information between users, as well as scale solutions to other departments. How many departments and users will collectively be able to switch to the PA AWS is not indicated in the documents.
By the end of June 2023, 32 Russian departments have already been connected to the GS AWS, a representative of the Ministry of Digital Development told the newspaper. The almost 1 billion rubles indicated in the purchase, according to him, will go to scale up the solution for connecting employees of regional departments and to ensure information security. It is assumed that the service will be provided to the authorities, state institutions subordinate to them and state extrabudgetary funds, the source said.
AWS GS should "wean off" officials to use foreign messengers such as Telegram, Discord, Viber, WhatsApp (owned by Meta, which is recognized as an extremist organization and banned in Russia), WeChat, Zoom and Microsoft Teams, explained the head of the digital solutions department of the agency "Polilog" Lyudmila Bogatyreva.[2]
2022: Govt instructs governors to switch from Telegram to VK messenger
On May 1, 2022, it became known about the order of the Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko for the transition of regional governors Telegram from to the Russian messenger - the developed VK automated workplace of a civil servant (AWS GS).
According to Kommersant, regional leaders were recommended to use exclusively Russian messengers within the "framework of official activities." The deputy prime minister's office told the publication that the service works in a browser and includes mail, a calendar, cloud storage and an internal portal.
The service is already used in state structures, by the end of 2023 the authorities plan to form a federal system on its basis and connect all civil servants to it, the newspaper was told. Ministry of Digital Development It is planned to replace not only Telegram messengers and, WhatsApp but also cloud, ON Google Docs services video conference Skype and, Zoom as well as postal service. Microsoft Exchange
Experts doubted that the demand would greatly change the situation. Governors use Telegram as a social network and use it for communication with voters, and not for internal correspondence, Yevgeny Minchenko, president of the Minchenko Consulting communications company, told the publication. He noted that Telegram by the beginning of June 2022 is on the rise, and a large transition of the audience to VKontakte from blocked Russia Instagram to (owned by Meta, which the court in Russia recognized as an extremist organization, its activities are prohibited) is not observed.
Officials will use the AWS developed for them, if this is attributed to issues of labor discipline, experts interviewed by the newspaper believe. The development of VK is unlikely to encourage them to completely abandon the messengers that they are used to using, they are sure.[3]
2021
A set of applications for the official's workplace for 450 million rubles will be developed by a subsidiary of VK
The automated workplace of a civil servant (WS HS) will be developed by the VK group. A knowledgeable source told TAdviser about this. According to him, Maylru Digital Technologies LLC (renamed VK Digital Technologies in 2021 as a result of rebranding) offered the most competitive price as part of the tender announced by the Ministry of Digital Development. Thus, the Russian IT holding, better known for its b2c services, will create a multifunctional communication application for officials.
According to data available on the official public procurement portal, six applications from Russian developers were submitted for the tender (the names of the companies were not published). Three of them did not reach the final stage: one was recalled by the company, two were not allowed by the commission. As a result, three Russian developers participated in the auction. The victory was won by Mail.Ru Digital Technologies, 43% of which belongs to Mail.Ru LLC, and 57% to Elena Bagudina, CEO of Мэйл.ру Group and Mail.Ru Digital Technologies. The winner played down, reducing the initial tender price by more than 37.7 million rubles, and proposed to develop a set of specialized highly secure communication services for 450.5 million rubles.
VK did not confirm the information, citing the fact that there is no data on the results of the tender on the public procurement portal yet. However, back in March 2020, Pavel Gontarev, Managing Director of Mail.Ru Digital Technologies, at the TAdviser IT Government Day conference, spoke about the group's interest in working with the public sector.
| | We see how elements of state information are developing: the state region, a data management system, a new version of SMEV and new super services. All this will develop, and it is very similar to what we do on the Internet. Therefore, it seems to us that we can give the state a lot of useful expertise. But we are still only looking for forms of reporting this examination to state structures. Somewhere we find, somewhere we see risks, and we think that the state is also interested in working with this kind of players, in the emergence of new competencies and new forms of interaction. I think that the success of this kind of national programs generally depends on whether we find these forms of interaction, [1] "Pavel Gontarev said at the conference | |
According to the press service of VK, now more than 400 employees work at Mayl.ru Digital Technologies. The company has developments included in the register of domestic software.
Konstantin Gurzov, Director of the Department for the Development of Cloud Services and Data Management of the Ministry of Digital Development, told TAdviser that the GS AWS system should be ready by the fall of 2022, and put into commercial operation in 2023.
| | We create GS AWS as a full-fledged communication environment for civil servants so that employees of departments can get away from mass messengers and use secure tools. Now we are considering the possibilities of expanding the functionality of the PA AWS. So, in 2021 it is planned to test the use of domestic text editors. If this option turns out to be in demand, then we will begin a dialogue with Russian office software developers, "a representative of the Ministry of Digital Development shared with TAdviser. | |
So far, the set of tools that will become the basis of communications of civil servants are only being formed. At the first stage, the programs that will be provided by the winner of the competition - "Mail.Ru Digital Technologies" will be used.
Creation of GIS for automation of civil servant's workplace
In June 2021, it became known about the creation Russia state in the information system "Automated workplace of a civil servant," which by this time is working in experimental mode. The start of industrial operation of the technology should take place before the end of 2023.
The need to create a new GIS is caused by the fact that civil servants of different departments use various, including not always protected, services in their work, for example, transmit information through instant messengers. In addition, the level of software of regional and federal state institutions is different. In order to optimize the work of employees and provide them with the necessary services, protect information, and also not depend on the programs of foreign manufacturers, it was decided to conduct an experiment with the system "Automated workplace of a civil servant."
This GIS includes a messenger for messaging and audio, video calls, a calendar for planning, mail, cloud storage. In addition, it allows you to set tasks for employees and track their implementation. The administrator is provided with advanced functionality for managing accounts and services. A news portal is also provided, information from which will be available to all employees.
The explanatory note to the draft government decree developed by the Ministry of Digital Development states that the development of this information system involves the introduction of a modern, reliable and scalable hardware and software complex that can modernize automated processes in the future. In accordance with the schedule developed by the Ministry of Digital Development, it is planned to connect up to five departments to the system by the end of 2021.[4]
