The paper presents a conceptual framework, and a system of indicators designed to monitor and evaluate the current state and development potential of domestic digital products manufacturing for sector transformation. The framework incorporates metrics that assess the scale, competitiveness, and growth potential of manufacturing processes. The indicators are categorized into two groups, enabling evaluation of both specialized and universal digital product manufacturing. A methodology for computing an integral index is proposed to allow comparative analysis across different sectors. Furthermore, the study provides results from a pilot ranking of domestic digital product manufacturing for sectoral transformation, utilizing available statistical data.
Using a Eurostat methodology adapted to the specifics of federal statistical observation, an assessment and comparative analysis were carried out of the level of digital skills among employees in various sectors and the employed population of Russia. To study digital skills, a combined microdata set was created based on the 2024 Labor Force Survey and the Population Survey on the Use of Digital Technologies (these surveys are conducted jointly, but Rosstat publishes the results separately). All obtained indicators are examined in comparison with the corresponding indicators of EU countries, Turkey, and several non-EU European countries.
The paper proposes a conceptual approach to interpreting the stages and processes of digital development, enabling the operationalization of this concept. Based on this approach, an original comprehensive model of digital development has been developed. Its key feature is the interpretation of digital development as an innovation process, aligned with the international innovation monitoring standards defined in the Oslo Manual. Digital development is conceptualized as a “two-phase” innovation process influenced by factors from both internal and external environments. The first phase involves digital product innovations (production and market launch of new ICT goods and services), while the second phase entails digital process innovations based on the adoption of these products in various sectors, leading to the transformation of business processes. The model also accounts for systemic changes, such as the emergence of multisided digital platforms and industry-specific information systems. The proposed approach systematizes methods from various disciplines (ranging from innovation modeling to digital maturity assessment) and serves as an effective management tool at the corporate, industry, and national levels.
A conceptual framework and a system of indicators for monitoring and evaluation digital technology penetration in various sectors are presented. The framework includes indicators assessing digital adoption for internal organizational processes and external counterparty engagement. A method for computing a composite index to enable comparative evaluation across different sectors is proposed. The findings from a pilot application of the methodology, featuring calculated indicators and indices for 2022, are provided.
A conceptual framework and indicators have been developed for monitoring the financing of sectoral digital development as a factor in the use of digital technologies to transform spheres of activity. The conceptual framework for monitoring identifies three main components: (1) financing of sectoral digital development, (2) financing of digital jobs, (3) financing as a factor in digital development. A pilot calculation of indicators for Russia for 2022 was made, as well as an integral indicator for 8 spheres of activity, a sectoral rating was built based on the integral indicator of financing of digital development.
