Contract for the development of an IT program in the amount of 19.5 million rubles. Rosoboronexport concluded with Getnet Consulting. In addition to her , Lanit, IBS and USP Complink also claimed to perform these works.
The first step in the development of the informatization program should be to assess the existing state of the corporate information system (CIS) of Rosoboronexport, a complex of software, computing, communication and engineering tools that form the technological infrastructure for the functioning of business applications and provide the company's employees with general corporate and applied IT services.
The existing CIS of Rosoboronexport includes 72 applied automated systems and subsystems that provide support for various business divisions of the company, the project documentation says. On the basis of the CIS, in particular, the functions of corporate management, marketing management, management of financial and operational production activities, management of the facilities of the production complex and the supply of the company are automated.
CIS systems are based in a geographically distributed data center consisting of two sites. The first of them is located in premises rented from Rostec, and the second is located on the territory of Rosoboronexport itself and performs the task of fault-tolerant remote storage of data.
After assessing the current state of the CIS, it is planned to develop the basic principles of its modernization, which should be framed in the form of a concept for the development of the company's IT infrastructure. The concept should take into account the principles of unification and reduction of diversity of IT platforms and complexes of engineering means (power supply, air conditioning, fire extinguishing, etc.) by forming a set of standard solutions, the project documentation says.
After that, the CIS management architecture will be designed and an investment program for its modernization will be developed. At the same time, for each IT project included in the investment program, the timing and cost of implementation should be estimated.
The Rosoboronexport informatization program will also describe the company's technical policy defining the main equipment and software vendors, as well as approaches to their selection, for the unification of technical solutions used in the CIS.

In particular, hundreds of thousands of dollars went to a businessman of Chinese origin , Yang Jin Tjong, who is called Sujito Ng in Indonesia. He was part of the entourage of the country's former president (Susilo Bambang Yudoyono) - a military man who was Minister of power and Minister of Politics, Law and Security. At the same time, Indonesia decided to buy Russian Su fighters and other military equipment.
