Allocation of ₽0,5 billion for the development of completely new software
The Federal Treasury of Russia in December 2024 announced the allocation of ₽513,6 million for the development of new software for the state information system "Torga." The decision was made after the Unified Register of Russian Programs did not find suitable software with the necessary functional characteristics.
According to CNews, the winner of the electronic auction, announced on October 24, 2024, was LT LLC. Yevgeny Yevtushenko, deputy director of the PKU Center for Ensuring the Activities of the Treasury of Russia, confirmed that the contractor will have to independently develop and finalize the application software.
The new version of GIS "Torgi" will support the simultaneous operation of up to 35 thousand users in personal accounts and process up to 900 web page views per second. The system is designed to store data on 640,000 new trades per year with a total volume of 145 TB.
In the updated version, it will be possible to conclude electronic transactions for the sale of state property using the State Key application for individuals. Users will be able to search for trading objects on an interactive map and view additional materials, including videos of real estate objects.
Development will be conducted in two stages with the end of the first stage until June 30, 2025 and the completion of all work by December 10, 2025. The project will also create a mobile application for the purchase of movable property worth up to ₽10 thousand.
The system will receive advanced analytical tools for property copyright holders, including trading monitoring and transaction execution control functions. This should increase budget revenues from the lease and sale of state property.
Representatives of the LT company noted that the existing Russian solutions, such as the New Information Services Electronic Platform, the SBiS Web System and WEB-Torgi-KS, do not meet the unique requirements of[1]software
The Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation transferred the sale of confiscated property to the GIS "Torga"
From September 1, 2024, the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation transferred sales of property confiscated in favor of the state to the Torgi GIS platform. The goal of the initiative is to increase the transparency of the process.
The new procedure for implementation is established only for movable property turned into state ownership, detained goods, material evidence and seized items worth up to 10 thousand rubles. In accordance with the new rules for the acquisition of property in GIS "Torga" it is necessary: to register as a bidder; select the necessary lot and accept the public offer; pay for the purchased item immediately or within 10 days after the acceptance of the offer; sign a certificate of acceptance and transfer of property. The rules provide for automatic price reduction at each stage in the absence of submitted proposals.
On electronic platforms, the stages of submitting applications and subsequent price proposals during trading will remain - by analogy with the state order. However, according to the Kommersant newspaper, market participants express fears that this is only the beginning of the process of transferring all state property trading to the Torgi GIS. It is said, in particular, that the new functionality of the system will allow the Ministry of Finance to gradually transfer to it the process of privatization sales of state-owned facilities. The department, however, says that there are no plans to independently sell state property.
Deputy Chairman of Delovaya Rossiya Anton Danilov-Danilyan believes that the state justifiably seeks to control the process of selling state property. However, according to him, the transfer of sales to one platform, that is, a radical change in the market, will require long-term adaptation, which means it will lead to financial losses. And this can result in a decrease in the quality of services. Grigory Nachinkin, head of the privatization department of the Russian Auction House (RAD), sees no reason to strengthen control over the sale of state property, calling the process absolutely transparent for the state and buyers.[2]
2021: Treasury will transfer all types of bidding for the sale of state property to electronic format
On September 9, 2021, it became known about a new digitalization project of the Federal Treasury (FC). The agency will build an ecosystem of relations in the sale of federal and municipal property.
According to Kommersant, FC plans to bring into a single circuit all data on sales of state property - from planning such transactions to the process of implementation and analyzing real revenues from them to the budget. To do this, in 2022, the Treasury will transfer torgi.gov.ru more than 40 types of trading to its own platform, and in 2023 it is expected to introduce electronic activation of transactions by analogy with the field of public procurement.
Earlier, the functions of the operator of the trading platform were performed by the Ministry of Economic Development, while the de facto platform was only a showcase for posting information about the bidding, while sometimes such information could be unreliable, the newspaper notes.
It is assumed that from 2022 all trading will be carried out in electronic form using the new GIS "Torgi," while the platform will be integrated with electronic platforms already operating under the law on public procurement. At the same time, GIS Torga will be integrated with the IT systems of the Federal Property Management Agency, Rosreestr, as well as regional property accounting systems for identifying objects and their value. FC plans to accumulate information on state property sales throughout their cycle - from planning (for this, structured privatization plans will be loaded into the system, while document scans are attached) to concluding transactions in electronic format.
In September 2021, the Federal Treasury noted that while the process of automation of sales is complicated by the fragmentation of the regulatory framework (bidding is carried out on 50 regulatory acts). According to the deputy head of the treasury Anna Katamadze, in two or three years it is planned to create a digital environment with analytics, with an understanding of how much it costs, whether a competitive environment has been created and how effective the procedures are.[3]
