Russia to create a "Digital Gosplan" based on the Soviet version of the Internet

Russian scientists propose creating a system that will allow monitoring the implementation of strategic documents and state orders in real time. According to the idea of scientists from leading universities in the country, the "digital Gosplan" will unite the existing internal information systems of the Federal Tax Service, the Federal Customs Service, the Treasury, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, and the Ministry of Digital Development. It is also proposed to integrate GAS "Management", GAS "Electronic Budget", EIS, "Gostech", GISP, AIS "Tax-3" and EAIS TO into the "digital Gosplan". The most interesting thing is that the "digital Gosplan" even has a prototype, and it is from Soviet times!

It is proposed to take as a basis the idea of Academician Viktor Glushkov. Back in the 60s, he tried to create OGAS - a National Automated System for accounting and processing information, which was a Soviet version of the Internet - a computer network linking data collection and processing centers in all regions of the country. Interestingly, then officials opposed OGAS, because the system could expose them in distorting statistics. Now, domestic scientists propose to give a new life to the ideas of the academician.

The pilot project of the "digital Gosplan" is planned to be launched this year with priority import substitution industries - radio electronics and automotive. Then it will be scaled to the petrochemical industry, agriculture, transport and medicine. According to scientists, with the help of the project, economic management will become more efficient.
