The implementation of the strategy led to the fact that at the end of 2014 revenue amounted to 600 million rubles, and at the end of 2015 this figure reached 1.9 billion rubles. Such results were achieved due to an increase in the share of coverage of the internal corporate market, including in trade and procurement activities, which made it possible to save up to 15% of the IT budgets of internal corporate customers, since RT-Inform was able to consolidate IT needs and receive significant price preferences due to "economies of scale," the company explained.

As a result of its work in 2016, RT-Inform's revenue amounted to 2.5 billion rubles. As of the end of 2017, more than 3 billion rubles were contracted. Thus, during the work of Kamil Gazizov as CEO of RT-Inform, the company's revenue increased 75 times.

In 2017-2025, it is possible to obtain savings of up to 40% (depending on the type of purchase) by standardizing the nomenclature, combining the same type of procurement, consolidating expertise and, as a result, obtaining special conditions from suppliers for planned volumes. Until 2025, thanks to the work of RT-INFORM, the accumulated savings from purchases in absolute terms may amount to 22 billion rubles.

The head of RT-INFORM stressed that using the positive experience of the central office of Rostec, the company assumes a gradual transition to a service model for enterprises of the State Corporation.
