DEVELOPMENT OF DIGITAL ECONOMY TECHNOLOGIES AS A DIRECTION FOR INCREASING THE LEVEL OF ECONOMIC SECURITY OF RUSSIA IN THE FIELD OF PUBLIC PROCUREMENTS

Abstract

. In the context of a sharp decline in the country’s budget revenues and an increase in its expenses, it is very important to organize the effective use of available resources, including financial ones. Therefore, it is very important to organize a system for regulating the use of budget funds through the system of organizing public procurement. Many enterprises consider this sector of activity economically profitable for themselves, since public procurement is associated with the provision of quality services in the healthcare sector, the agricultural sector and the social sphere, is a motivator of innovative development, a lever to combat environmental pollution, and also provides a factor in sustainable development. Starting in 2020, government procurement was transferred to electronic format. In a study conducted by the Institute of State and Municipal Management of the National Research University Higher School of Economics, which was published on December 20, 2021, an anonymous survey revealed that most representatives of business structures participating in public procurement encounter corruption during the competitive procedures. Based on the results of the analysis, it was revealed that open competition in electronic form and procurement from a single supplier (performer, contractor) are the most susceptible to corruption. And the best from the point of view of anti-corruption is an electronic auction, since it takes place in real time, which creates public control over the auction. As a result of the research, directions for openness and accessibility of information on public procurement for all interested parties, automation of the process of selecting a winner in a limited time without the influence of the customer with the participation of artificial intelligence were proposed. This will help increase the level of economic security of Russia in the field of public procurement.
