The Ministry of Digital Development will give companies another year to adapt industrial software for Russian OS
On October 10, 2024, it became known that the Ministry of Digital Development of the Russian Federation was postponing the entry into force of the requirement to ensure mandatory compatibility of industrial software from the register of Russian software with two domestic operating systems. The delay will concern the PLM products (control systems of life cycle of a product), CAE (systems of the engineering analysis), CAM (systems of the automated production), SPDM (control systems of data and processes of the engineering analysis) and so forth.
According to the Vedomosti newspaper, it was originally planned that for all products from the register of Russian software, the mandatory requirement for compatibility with domestic OSs will be unified and will enter into force in 2024. In accordance with the new schedule, the Ministry of Digital Development postpones the deadline for fulfilling this requirement to the third quarter of 2025, and for "heavy" software - to 2026. For certain classes of software, a delay will apply "depending on the degree of readiness of products."
As of October 2024, the register of Russian software contains 898 solutions in the Industrial Software category, of which only half are compatible with two Russian OS. For comparison, about 60-90% of application software is compatible with domestic operating systems. There are difficulties with the transfer of "heavy" software to Russian operating systems, which is due to the specifics of the use of these products in critical processes, such as the creation of 3D models and modeling of complex technological processes. Adaptation requires program code refinement and comprehensive testing.
It is noted that Rosatom, Gazprom Neft, Rostec and other enterprises that are members of the Association of the Largest Software Consumers are interested in the postponement. Engineering products such as process control systems and simulation tools take time to adapt to new conditions.[1]
Russian Prime Minister Mishustin instructed to ensure the transition of 80% of Russian enterprises to domestic software
On July 6, 2024, the chairman Government of the Russian Federation Mikhail Mishustin gave a number of instructions as part of the digital transformation of the economy and industry. One of the most important areas of work is ensuring independence Russia from foreign solutions.
In particular, we are talking about the introduction of domestic software. Mishustin noted that by 2030, 80% of all enterprises in the country should switch to Russian software. First of all, this applies to resource and production management systems. Such large-scale tasks require coordinated actions of business and the state.
The government plans to implement a number of measures aimed at supporting the industry. The federal investment tax deduction will help reduce the costs of enterprises and companies when implementing complex projects for the implementation of Russian software and software and hardware systems. It is entrusted to work a possibility of its introduction to the Ministry of Digital Development and the Ministry of Finance. In addition, it is planned to introduce grant support for especially significant projects of enterprises for the pilot implementation of Russian software solutions.
The Ministry of Digital Development was instructed to provide preferential lending to enterprises and companies for the purchase of modern Russian software, as well as the construction of data processing centers for the provision of commercial services.
For state corporations and companies with state participation, the timing of the transition to domestic software has been established. Thus, Russian operating systems, office applications, antivirus programs and systems virtualizations should be used from January 1, 2025 database management systems , and () - DBMS from January 1, 2026.
 | The timing of the final transition of companies to domestic software largely depends on the size of the digital infrastructure used and the amount of data to be migrated, taking into account the transition to domestic solutions, a representative of the Ministry of Digital Development told Vedomosti .[2] |  |
Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin: Industry investments in Russian software reached 4 trillion rubles in 4 years
The volume of investments of the Russian industry in the domestic software in 4 years reached 4 trillion. rubles The chairman Governments of the Russian Federation Mikhail Mishustin cited such figures on May 21, 2024.
According to him, investments in the development of IT infrastruktury during this time increased by a third to 1.5 trillion rubles, the cost of introducing software products - 2.5 times (the prime minister did not give absolute volumes).
| | Business is well aware of the importance of applying innovation in its activities. This is especially true for power, mining, construction, transport, production. Their investments in IT solutions are growing much faster than in the economy as a whole. Good results in the manufacturing industry, - said the Prime Minister. | |
He cited data according to which in 2023 only 6% of industrial enterprises reduced their IT budgets, and the rest of the organizations either kept spending at the same level or significantly increased. Mishustin put as an example manufacturers of petroleum products, machinery and equipment, among which, according to the prime minister, every third in 2023 at least left the IT budget at the level of the previous year. The same was done by every fourth enterprise for the production of electronic, optical and metal products, as well as every fifth - in the metallurgical industry, the head of Government noted.
| | These are good examples. The most popular today are programs for managing business processes and production, - he added (his words are quoted by the press service of the Cabinet of Ministers). | |
According to Mishustin, by 2024 the most popular in industry are programs for managing business processes and production. In second place are digital design and modeling systems.[3]
The Ministry of Industry and Trade allocates 1.5 billion rubles for import substitution of industrial software
On April 22, 2024, it became known that the Ministry of Industry and Trade will allocate 1.5 billion rubles for import substitution of software in the industrial sector. The subsidy, in particular, is necessary for the expensive replacement of foreign software at processing enterprises.
According to the Vedomosti newspaper, the allocated funds will compensate for part of the costs of introducing the so-called heavy industrial and engineering software, as well as specialized software and hardware systems (PAC). The Ministry of Industry and Trade intends to support those import substitution projects that provide complex processes for the development and production of high-tech products.
The new initiative assumes that at least half of the necessary costs of Russian enterprises introducing domestic software will be covered at their own expense or through funds raised. The implementation of the financial support program begins in the summer of 2024 and will last until 2030. The amount of the subsidy for 2024 was approved by the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation.
A study by the Bank of Russia says that in the manufacturing industry, the adjustment of business processes to changing conditions turned out to be uneven among enterprises. The sanctions restrictions imposed in the current geopolitical situation affected a wide range of enterprises, and the companies had difficulties in organizing foreign trade relations and restructuring the supply chains of the necessary resources. Changes in external conditions for business with high import dependence and the problems that have formed in this regard lead to the emergence of risks that may affect the sustainable development of the industry. One of the key areas of import substitution in the industrial sector is the creation of PAC on the basis of Russian hardware and software components. The development of such systems is carried out by Roselectronics, MCST, Iksdata (a subsidiary of Astra Group, etc.).[4]
The Ministry of Industry and Trade creates a council for the development of industrial software
On March 14, 2024, the Ministry of Industry and Trade took the initiative to create a special council for the development of industrial software. It is assumed that such an organization will help industrial enterprises carry out import substitution in the field of software and switch from closed foreign platforms to open architectures.
According to the Vedomosti newspaper, it is proposed to form an intersectoral architectural council for the joint development of various IT solutions focused primarily on the chemical, metallurgical, oil and gas and petrochemical sectors. The Ministry of Industry and Trade notes that in the current geopolitical situation, the industrial industry requires such products as ERP (enterprise resource planning), MES (production process management systems), EAM (enterprise asset management), IBP (integrated business planning), WMS (warehouse management system) and CAE (engineering analysis systems).
| | Within the framework of the architectural council, it is possible to solve specific industry problems, conduct an intersectoral examination of projects aimed at developing/finalizing and implementing domestic solutions and building general requirements for software development, "says Vladimir Dozhdev, director of the digital technologies department of the Ministry of Industry and Trade. | |
According to him, the Ministry of Industry and Trade is ready to support the initiative, but the companies themselves must show it. As an example, Dozhdev cited an intersectoral working group organized to develop an automated process control system (APCS). It was formed by Eurochem and Severstal, and later Tatneft, Rostelecom, Alrosa, Sibur, Fosagro and others joined it. It is assumed that the new council, if created, will help in the development of products, including based on open source solutions.[5]

On December 1, 2023, it became known that the Russian railway engineering industry (ZHDM) is initiating a large-scale import substitution plan in the field of software. A total of more than 10 billion rubles will be spent on the transfer of IT systems from foreign products to domestic solutions. Read more here.
Mishustin: 200 particularly significant industrial software projects were selected with financing of 230 billion rubles
On November 7, 2023, Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, speaking at the strategic session "The Transition of the Russian Industry to the Domestic Digital System for Supporting the Full Life Cycle of Products," announced that the Russian Government had selected about 200 particularly significant projects for the development of industrial domestic software with a total financing of more than 230 billion rubles. According to the head of the Cabinet, most of this amount will come from private investments, and the amount of grants from the budget will exceed 25 billion rubles.
| | Developers, managers, representatives of the business community and the authorities act together so that enterprises have a popular and convenient software product, says Mishustin. - Russia should become one of the advanced countries, which will have a line of its own software in all classes. | |
One part of this big task, according to the chairman of the Russian government, is to create solutions to support the full life cycle of products that are necessary for the development of industrial production. Experts estimate the volume of this market at 56 billion rubles, Mikhail Mishustin said.
According to him, by November 2023, more than 88 thousand enterprises use solutions to support the full life cycle of products. Moreover, almost half of them already use components of domestic release, and in some domestic platforms have already been introduced, the head of the Cabinet emphasized.
He recalled that last year special competence centers were created in Russia, and now 34 industrial centers and 13 centers for the development of system-wide and application software operate in the country.
| | A number of industrial leaders are now actively engaged in individual elements of heavy-duty industrial software [the products by which highly complex facilities such as airplanes and nuclear power plants are designed]. As part of the activities of industrial competence centers, there are about 40 such projects with total funding of over 40 billion rubles, "Mishustin added.[6] | |
The government approved a roadmap for import substitution of software in the mining, metallurgical and space industries. Document
The Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation approved an industry plan of measures to replace by 2024 in the mining, metallurgical, rocket and space, defense, chemical industry and in the field of nuclear power 100% of the foreign software used by domestic software. The corresponding document was published on the official portal of legal acts in August 2023.
Among other things, the roadmap determines how much domestic software of different types (from text editors to information security systems, only about a hundred types) should be from the total number of software at the end of 2023 and 2024. The document concerns enterprises - state customers working on 223-FZ (with the exception of organizations with municipal participation).
According to the plan, by the end of 2024, the share of domestic cloud solutions used at significant facilities of critical information infrastructure will reach 100% against 50% in 2023. In addition, full import substitution is expected in such software segments as server and binding software, DBMS, virtualization, monitoring and management tools, as well as operating systems and containerization systems.
Import substitution in the field of software cannot but be welcomed, but it is important that the process is not formal, said Elena Avakyan, vice president of the Federal Chamber of Lawyers of the Russian Federation, adviser to the law firm Egorov, Puginsky, Afanasyev and Partners.
| | Like any person who considers digital sovereignty as an additional degree of freedom, I cannot but be impressed by the idea of import substitution in the IT field. At the same time, being a realist, I understand that just creating all your own without losing quality is extremely difficult. Unfortunately, many things in the field of IT declared as import-substituted are losing in consumer qualities to foreign counterparts that we have recently used, "she stressed. | |
According to the State Duma deputy, deputy chairman of the Duma committee on information policy, information technology and communications Anton Gorelkin, if Russia is going to pursue a truly independent international policy focused on pragmatism, benefit and benefit for its country, it is necessary to accelerate the development of the domestic software market, ensure maximum autonomy from foreign developments in the field of high technologies, preserve information sovereignty.
The parliamentarian noted that the use of foreign software and foreign equipment carries risks, since "the West uses its platforms, services and software as an element of pressure and information warfare."
| | Import substitution in the field of software is not a whim, but a necessity. In another way, it is impossible to maintain the independence, stability of the country, to ensure the safety of citizens and the state, the deputy believes. | |
Import substitution in the digital industry in Russia was started in 2014, when "it came to the realization that the sanctions of the United States and the European Union would go on increasing, which increased the risks associated with the use of foreign software both in business and in state organizations," Anton Gorelkin recalled.
| | It was then that the state seriously took up the solution of a significant issue, the development of a strategy in the field of import substitution of software began. And after the start of a special military operation, this topic received a new powerful impetus, - said the parliamentarian. | |
According to him, by 2023 Russia has its own analogues of software and services that are in no way inferior to foreign ones, and some even surpass them.

Chernyshenko: 216 projects of import substitution of software were selected, investments will amount to 183 billion rubles
On November 7, 2022, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko, during a meeting with Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin on the approval of projects for import substitution of software (software) in various industries and agriculture.
| | To date, 216 projects have been selected and approved in all sectors: in metallurgy, mechanical engineering, electric power, transport, construction, agriculture, housing and communal services and in many others. They cover all types of software that are necessary for the work of our modern enterprises, - said Chernyshenko, whose words on November 7, 2022 are quoted by the press service of the Cabinet. | |
According to him, of these 216 projects, 44 are the result of enlarged and intersectoral decisions, they will be applied by groups of companies. Thus, the United Aircraft Corporation and the United Engine Corporation have created a comprehensive project for managing production processes, Chernyshenko noted.
| | The industries themselves have united and, under the supervision of the heads of the digital transformation of all departments, together will develop these projects and invest in them, since business, we see, has undertaken very serious financial obligations to finance these works in the amount of over 155 billion rubles, the Deputy Prime Minister said. | |
According to him, this will not only satisfy the needs of industry customers, but also implements the export potential of domestic solutions. The first results of the projects are expected to be obtained in 2023 and 2024.
Chernyshenko added that the Ministry of Digital Development provides more than 28 billion rubles for the implementation of projects in the field of import substitution of software in industry.
| | With these funds, solutions will be created in all industries and economies. IT solutions will be implemented as soon as possible, - said the deputy chairman of the government.[7] | |
The Ministry of Industry and Trade asked industrial enterprises to stop using Zoom, Skype and WhatsApp
On October 19, 2022, it became known that the Ministry of Industry and Trade asked industrial enterprises to stop using Zoom, Skype and WhatsApp.
As Kommersant writes with reference to the corresponding letter of the department, its authors make it clear that such a measure is necessary to ensure the security of information that is not a state secret. It is proposed to replace foreign platforms with domestic products from those listed in the corresponding register. Domestic applications are recommended to be installed not only on computers, but also on smartphones, tablets and other gadgets.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade asked industrial enterprises to abandon the use of foreign instant messengers and video conferencing systems (VKS) in favor of Russian ones in connection with "the need to fulfill government requirements and strengthen information security measures."
TrueConfDevelopment Director Dmitry Odintsov believes that the principle of operation of Russian and foreign public messengers is "no different" and their use always coexists with specific risks.
{{quote 'Firstly, there is a possibility of interception data - information it passes through servers in, DPCs which are often not even located in our country, - the expert explains. - Secondly, due to sanctions, access may be limited - and this is critical for large companies whose employees are used to constantly communicating, sharing files and solving work issues in instant messengers and VKS services. }} Disconnecting the service, according to Odintsov, can make communication difficult and slow down even the most basic processes, especially for industrial enterprises.
By October 2022, there are several main players in the corporate video conferencing solutions market - IVA, TrueConf and Vinteo, said Stanislav Iodkovsky, CEO of IVA Technologies.[8]
VK requested 150 million rubles from the state to finalize and implement an analogue of Jive in the United Engine Corporation
As it became known to TAdviser, at the end of July 2022, VK Digital Technologies (VK CT) requested 150 million rubles for the import substitution of the American Jive knowledge management system, which is used to create corporate social networks and manage the tasks, projects and content of companies, in the United Engine Corporation (UEC) (more).

The government allocated 175 billion rubles for soft loans for the implementation of domestic IT solutions in industry
The Russian government allocates 175 billion rubles for soft loans for the implementation of domestic IT solutions in industry, which became known in early June 2022. The allocated funds will be received by banks as compensation for interest rates on preferential loans for industrial companies that introduce domestic software and hardware and software complexes.
Specific banks participating in the preferential program are not named. The same program of preferential loans for digital transformation with rates from 1% to 5% was provided for by government decree 2019 No. 1598, Vedomosti indicates. Participating banks include Sberbank, VTB, Promsvyazbank and others.
Irina Milova, head of the center for work with IT, telecom and pharmaceutical enterprises at PSB, said that the bank plans to participate in a new lending program at a rate of 1-5%, aimed at supporting domestic companies developing and introducing domestic software as part of import substitution.
{{quote 'The government has identified Russian digital solutions as a priority for state-owned manufacturing corporations and companies. The share of their costs for such purchases in the next 2-3 years should grow to 70% of all digitalization costs, - said Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin in early June 2022. }} He recalled that the deadlines for refusing to use foreign technologies at significant objects of critical information infrastructure have been established: by 2025, all foreign solutions and hardware and software complexes according to the plans should be decommissioned and replaced with Russian ones. The industrial sector in Russia ranks third in terms of the cost of introducing and using digital technologies after the IT and financial sectors, but only 23% of IT solutions used in the industry are domestic, said the Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation.[9]
Mishustin estimated at 25% the share of Russian software in the Russian industry
In early June 2022, Prime Minister RFMikhail Mishustin said that Russian software accounts for up to 25% of the software used in the Russian industry. Against the background of the departure of Western IT companies from the Russian Federation, domestic developers have every opportunity to fill the market, he said.
| | The share of domestic software products that are now involved in industrial enterprises is small. It does not exceed a quarter of all implemented technologies that perform key functions. This is product data management, dispatching, collecting information from machine tools and a number of others, the prime minister said at a conference on June 3, 2022. | |
He stressed that Russia will have to ensure the "digital maturity" of key industries, but at the same time it will have to work in new conditions, taking into account sanctions.
At the same time, Igor Bogachev, General Director of Tsifa Group of Zyfra, noted at the same conference that the withdrawal from the Russian market of foreign companies that provided software for industrial enterprises did not provoke an increase in prices for domestic software.
| | It seems to me that there is no price increase, because the market is competitive... Russian companies compete with each other in the same way, so the IT market moves exclusively with market drivers. Even if some company wanted to raise prices, others would not give them this, "Bogachev said (quoted by TASS). | |
He cited the example of the situation software mining for industry. According to him, about 30% of companies used foreign software, which is now leaving Russia, so these enterprises are trying to switch to Russian IT solutions. But this situation did not provoke a rise in price of the product, Bogachev emphasized.[10]
2021: Authorities approve roadmap for import substitution of Russian industry until 2024
On July 28, 2021, it became known that the authorities approved a roadmap, according to which 60% of the programs used by the Russian industry 2024 should be domestic. This applies, among other things, to the systems CRM and. ERP The developers ON are skeptical about this - in their opinion, in two and a half years it will not be easy to achieve such indicators, given the fact that in 2020 the level import substitution in this segment did not exceed 10%.
At the request of CNews about the goals pursued by the created roadmap, representatives of the Russian Ministry of Digital Development said that they include "the development of industrial software and stimulating its implementation at industrial enterprises (regardless of the share of state participation)."
Representatives of the apparatus of Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko told CNews that the New Production Technologies roadmap "offers the market a painless plan for switching to domestic software, which can replace foreign developments and make the enterprise independent of external solutions. "{{quote 'The Russian industry still has a leading role in the structure of GDP, this means that not only the profitability of individual structures depends on the performance of production, and the country's economic growth and the welfare of our citizens, they added. }}
The Roadmap is aimed primarily at large Russian business. The document names, among others, Almaz-Antey"" and "" as potential consumers of Russian industrial software. Roskosmos The list also contains the "" operator.Rostelecom
According to Vedomosti, the main goal of the approved roadmap is to increase the independence of domestic industry from foreign software. The document states that by 2024 the index of independence of this sector from foreign software should reach 60%. For comparison, at the end of 2020, this figure was only at the level of 10%.
This goal means that for the remaining two and a half years, domestic software developers will have to cover 60% of the needs of Russian industrial companies in the software they use. One of the sources of the publication cited as an example Russian factories and factories, which as of July 2021 have about 900 thousand jobs with Russian software. According to him, by 2024 there should be within 1.35 million across the country.
The representative of Rostec said that the competitive selection of projects for the development and implementation of Russian industrial software will begin in 2021. In his words, it will be held within the framework of the Russian Information Technology Development Fund.
Achieving the goals set in the prepared roadmap will not do without large-scale financial injections. According to the publication, the budget of all measures provided for by the document is at around 17.7 billion rubles, but only 8.7 billion rubles. of this amount will be allocated by the federal budget.
Another 9 billion rubles. will provide various extrabudgetary sources. For example, the authors of the road map Rostec and Rosatom will allocate 754 million rubles.
The money will be allocated for various needs, including for the training of specialists in the implementation and operation of Russian industrial software. Part of the funds, Vedomosti writes, will be aimed at "creating a landfill for testing solutions, creating a distributed network of testing laboratories for verification, validation and testing of industrial software[11].
2020: Rostec and Rosatom are the main integrators of import substitution of industrial software
At the end of July 2020, the Government of the Russian Federation chose Rostec and Rosatom as the main integrators in the import substitution of industrial software. According to the document signed by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, this agreement is aimed at "reducing the existing critical level of dependence of Russian organizations on the supply of foreign industrial software."
The government will develop and approve the project roadmap and create a competence center for the implementation of projects. Will finance the new road map from the budget of the federal draft "Digital Technologies" of the national project "Digital Economy".
By July 27, 2020, two road maps are ready - Quantum Computing (Rosatom) and Quantum Communications (Russian Railways). They were sent to the presidium of the Right Commission for Digital Development for approval, Pavel Khristenko, director for industry areas of the Digital Economy ANO, told ComNews.
According to him, other road maps are at different stages of readiness and are being approved. The roadmap "New Production Technologies" is being developed and coordinated by Rosatom and Rostec, then it will be considered at the Digital Industry working group at the Digital Economy site, he added.
In July, the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation held a meeting on import substitution of industrial software. According to Valentin Makarov, President of the Russoft Association, the possibility of expanding the register of domestic software through new sections of industrial software and involving private companies in solving the problem of import substitution in this area was discussed.
| | At the meeting, as it seemed to me, consent was found between Rostec and Rosatom on the one hand and private organized business on the other, "he said.[12] | |
2018: Denis Manturov: import substitution program demanded 600 billion rubles of investment since 2014
On April 18, 2018, a final meeting of the board of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia "On the main results of the activities of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation in 2017, goals and objectives for 2018" was held in Moscow. Presenting the results of activities over the past six years, the Minister of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation Denis Manturov noted that in the first years of the reporting period, the main emphasis was on creating fundamental foundations for the development of the industrial potential of our country. The adoption of the Federal Law "On Industrial Policy in the Russian Federation" and related regulations ensured uniform and understandable principles for the development of national industry.
Particular attention was paid to the active involvement of the regions in solving the problems of industrial development. For this, conditions have been created for the formation of an extensive industrial infrastructure in the constituent entities of the Federation. More than 4 times in comparison with 2012, the number of regional industrial parks has been increased. Today, 110 such sites operate in the country, on the territory of which more than 2.5 thousand Russian and foreign manufacturers have placed their capacities. "More than 3 thousand companies produce high-tech products in the perimeter of 45 industrial technology parks created," the Minister emphasized.
According to Denis Manturov, industrial clusters are being formed to develop cooperative ties between enterprises in various regions - 50 such entities already cover about 1800 enterprises with a total number of employees of over 700 thousand people.
"The main instrument of interregional partnership and equalization of sectoral balances should be the state information system" Industry. " Despite the fact that in pilot mode it began work only 2 years ago, now it accumulates almost the entire range of high-tech products that are already being produced or planned for production by our enterprises, "said the head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia.
Among the most significant tools for supporting industries, the speaker named the Industrial Development Fund (FRP) and special investment contracts (SPIC). The total budget of projects implemented using these mechanisms has exceeded the mark of half a trillion rubles.
"The mechanism of regional SPIKs made it possible to attract about 170 billion rubles to large industrial projects. As for small and medium-sized businesses, regional FRPs become the basis for stimulating their initiatives - they have already been formed by more than half of the subjects of the Federation, "Denis Manturov emphasized the attention of the participants in the board meeting.
The measures taken made it possible to quickly implement the task of accelerated import substitution. In total, since 2014, over 600 billion rubles have been invested in the creation of Russian analogues of foreign products, of which 120 billion are state funds. About 1,200 import substitution projects have been deployed throughout the country, a third of which have already reached the stage of serial production.
"To use all reserves of domestic demand, we have strengthened the fight against illegal trafficking in industrial products. A system of end-to-end traceability of goods is formed on the way from the manufacturer to the consumer. The key tool in this part is product labeling. In a number of industries, it is already used, and by 2024, on behalf of the Prime Minister, it should be extended to all major commodity groups, "the Minister said.
Cleaning from counterfeiting is carried out in parallel with the creation of favorable conditions to improve the quality and competitiveness of products. For this, over six years, more than 8.5 thousand national standards harmonized with international standards have been updated and developed. A comprehensive export support infrastructure has been created. It includes 17 different subsidies, which have already yielded a tangible result in the form of growth in non-resource non-energy exports. The increase in the volume of external supplies occurs in all civilian sectors of the Russian industry without exception.
Assessing the situation with the development of domestic trade, the head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia said that this sector of the economy forms about 16% of GDP.
"We have fundamentally changed the approach to regulating this area, following the path of liberalization and maximum release of private initiative. An effective dialogue between suppliers and retail chains has been built. The interests of large retail, small retail and small producers have been conjugated. All this made it possible in six years to increase the number of retail facilities by 11%, and the provision of the population with retail space by more than 1.5 times. Initially, the soft regulation of online commerce made it possible to increase it at a faster pace. Since 2012, this segment has added over 80%, reaching 1.1 trillion rubles, "Denis Manturov emphasized.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia will continue to expand the delivery channels for goods from the manufacturer to the consumer. To date, a bill has been prepared aimed at the development of non-stationary and mobile trade, a full-fledged street retail is being formed in the regions.
Speaking at a meeting of the board, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin separately dwelled on the activities of the Ministry in the defense industry and aircraft industry. As a breakthrough direction, he named the program for the creation of a new Russian MS-21 aircraft. "This aircraft has a huge future, because it is the ancestor of a whole family of medium-haul aircraft," the speaker said. According to the Deputy Prime Minister, domestic aircraft manufacturers could never come to terms with the fact that the Russian sky is filled with American and European-made aircraft. Therefore, in addition to MS-21, short-haul and long-haul liners will be actively created. Dmitry Rogozin also noted that in the past years it was possible to restore the prestige of engineering and design work in the country, the work of people-creators.
2017: RANEPA: The dependence of Russian industry on imports exceeded 90%
The policy of replacing imports in Russian industry, proclaimed after a sharp deterioration in relations with the West in 2014, is on the verge of failure. The share of Russian enterprises that are not ready to abandon purchases of technologies and raw materials abroad during the sanctions war not only did not decrease, but even increased, the RANEPA reports in February Monitoring. [13] on[14]
Equipment is the worst, a series of surveys the academy has conducted over the past three years showed. If in 2015 the 30% of enterprises expressed their readiness to reduce or completely curtail purchases abroad of machines, machines and technological solutions, then by 2017 there were only 7% of them.
In terms of raw materials, the situation is not much better: three years ago, 22% of the surveyed managers spoke about an attempt to switch to domestic counterparts, and last year their share decreased to 8%.
Thus, the dependence of industry on imports increased to 92-93%. The main obstacle to refusing foreign purchases was and still is the absence of Russian analogues of any quality, says the head of the laboratory of market surveys at the Gaidar Institute.
Moreover, the severity of the problem is growing, it follows from the survey: if in 2015 the 62% of Russian enterprises recognized the impossibility of stopping purchases abroad due to the fact that Russia , in principle, the products they need are not produced, then in 2017 their share increased to 69%.
The number of top managers who would potentially be ready to replace imports, but are not satisfied with the quality of domestic analogues, increased from 35% to 37%.
Even at the peak of the collapse of oil and the ruble in 2015-16, the scale of import substitution planned by manufacturers has always been inferior in all categories of purchases (both equipment and raw materials) to the scale of the "import protection" planned by them, says Tsukhlo: the industry preferred (or was forced) to maintain the previous share of imports.
According to the FCS, in January-November 2017, purchases of machinery and equipment abroad jumped by 28%, and their share in the total volume of imports from non-CIS countries reached 51%.
The reason for such modest successes was, most likely, the import dependence of the Russian industry that had formed in previous years, says Tsukhlo: "By purchasing imported equipment, Russian enterprises are forced to switch to raw materials and materials that are not produced here, but are supplied by foreign manufacturers that usually offer comprehensive supplies and do not miss the opportunity to link the buyer to their products at all stages of its use."
