Digitalization of operational activities in aircraft manufacturing company

The need for the Russian aircraft industry to enter a new stage of information technology development, including the features of digital technological solutions that must be considered to increase the Russian civil aircraft industry competitiveness in global markets, has been defined. When implementing projects in the aviation industry, there is significant government support, as it ensures the technological sovereignty of the state and allows the importsubstituting technologies generation. The Russian aviation industry has extensive experience in implementing digital technology solutions to ensure flight safety. Thus, the main Russian civilian airliners, such as Superjet 100 and MS-21, were designed and developed using a digital information and computing complex. The data on countries that use the most advanced technologies in designing and manufacturing jet and turboprop aircraft have been systematized. The role of digitalization as a global economic trend has been revealed, the main digital technologies used in the operational activities of the aircraft industry using Russian software products have been identified and systematized. The conducted research allowed concluding that aircraft construction is a leading industry both in Russia and globally in digital technological solutions implementation. The conclusion has been made about the importance of creating digital clusters and integrated digital platforms in the aircraft industry, which, as part of operational processes aggregation for producing and operating aircraft, bring together participants and business partners of these structures in order to increase the efficiency of their activities.
