The article points out the problem of quality of interaction between the customer and the supplier of goods, works or services in the sphere of state and municipal public procurement procedures of Russian Federation. One of the manifestations of the problem is the high percentage of contract termination between procurement participants (approximately 20 % of the number of contracts concluded). The objective of the study was to suggest potential directions for improving the quality of interaction between procurement participants, against the background of considering the legal grounds for contracts termination. Based on the results of the study, the author identified the problem of lack of technics in the procurement control process, which reduce consequences of the uncertainty external environment impact and fair risk responsibility sharing of non-performing contract liabilities between the procurement participants.

The relevance of the study is due to the tasks that the President of the Russian Federation set for federal, regional and municipal authorities to grow the national and regional economy, increase its competitiveness and the effectiveness of public administration. Improving public administration and increasing its efficiency requires the development of a modern management methodology based on the introduction of a project approach. The purpose of the study is to develop practical recommendations aimed at improving the processes of project activities at the state level. The objectives of the study included reviewing the role of project activities, practices of implementing project management in the regions, identifying problems in the implementation of regional projects and programs and determining ways to solve them. The article uses graphical and tabular methods of data visualization, statistical and general scientific research methods. As a result of the study, the practice of implementing project management was analyzed in detail on the example of four regions of the Russian Federation, which were among the first to introduce the project approach and showed high practical results of project management. A special place in the study is occupied by the algorithm developed for executive authorities for the transition to a project-oriented management system, which increases the flexibility of the management structure, allows you to create an infrastructure for project activities, determine the design competencies of specialists and increase project maturity.

The COVID-19 crisis has accelerated separate megatrends and transformations not only in the social sphere, but also in the digital one in the public administration system. Information exchange, electronic participation and two-way communication using digital platforms allowed public authorities and business structures to respond promptly to the crisis in the short term. The urgency of the issues to be solved determined the adoption of measures not only in the short term prospect, but also indicated the need to develop them for the medium and long term period. The aim of the study was to analyse and systematise the set of measures taken by public authorities in different countries, in the mobilisation and crisis management of COVID-19. An important aspect of the study seems to be the identification of directions for digitalisation and further state and municipal digital services modernisation. The analysis of the measures taken by public authorities in different countries has highlighted that the policy of accelerating the digitalization of public administration and the public services provision in regions, cities and rural areas had helped to solve the social and economic problems. The regional and local measures versatility in different countries on digitalization in the medium term prospect makes it possible to form common approaches for using this experience in order to further modernize state and municipal digital services.

The article examines the existing political and economic trends: democratic and authoritarian forms of government. An attempt is made to describe the essential content of the values of democracy, as well as their implementation in the economic sphere. All this justifies the role of e-technologies only as a quantitative factor in the development of democracy. It is shown that the form of government is primarily based on personal value choice, which leads to effective or ineffective socio-political equilibrium states. It is shown that the construction of supporting democratic institutions does not implement the principles of power: service and hierarchy. Therefore, the transition to a new qualitative state is possible through education, awareness of the principles of power, their free acceptance, but cannot be carried out artificially, through a system of institutions introduced from the outside.

The article defines the criteria for the effectiveness of social management of an industrial enterprise. Some methodological approaches used in evaluating the effectiveness of social management are considered. The authors propose a methodology for determining the effectiveness of social management of an enterprise, which is based on the use of certain conditional calculated indicators and can be applied in the conditions of digitalization of the economy, and also involves implementation in several stages. The effectiveness of social management, according to the authors, must be assessed based on the results of the implementation of the social development plan developed for each enterprise. The authors recommend taking this approach to assessing the effectiveness of social management as one of the examples of the search for specific ways to create objective prerequisites and a methodological basis for studying a systematic approach to organizing work.

The impact that the digital transformation in manufacturing has on businesses, suppliers and other third parties has increased significantly now. Digital transformation in manufacturing means improving traditional manufacturing processes with the help of digital technologies. The goal of digital transformation is to increase production efficiency and reduce costs, improve the quality of goods and services produced, and quickly adapt to changes in the global market. The state of industrial production is constantly changing due to the instability of global, economic and political decisions, so the adoption and expansion of digital solutions based on Industry 4.0, the Internet of things, machine learning and other technologies of the future is accelerating. With the help of these technologies, industrial companies are trying to change approaches and find new ways to solve problems. As practice shows, mining and metallurgical companies lag behind other industries in the field of digital transformation, although they have great potential. This lag behind mainly due to the risks associated with the transformation and development of new digital production technologies, while it is possible to adhere to traditional and proven methods of work.

The purpose of the article is to identify the tasks and problems of city transport systems in modern conditions. Urban transport should solve the following tasks: equal access to the population to vehicles, the possibility of planning the time of traveling inside the city, ensuring environmental safety from the use of vehicles, creating the conditions for the availability of transport services at their cost, security and comfort, as well as ensure transport services for the business subjects at minimal economic costs. In the process of applying analytical research methods, urgent problems of urban transport were identified and areas of solving these problems were proposed. Electric transport is really economically more profitable in large cities and in urban agglomerations with high population density, when there is no urgent need to move often over long distances. The total benefits from the transition to electric vehicles are largely higher than the costs. Due to the improvement of the environmental situation, not only the quality of life of the population increases, but the capitalization of all production and public facilities in the country is growing.

In order to make science-based decisions related to business security by the owners and management of the enterprise, the following tasks are solved in the article: the organisational structure of the economic security service of the enterprise, as well as the main functions of its divisions, are developed. The relevance of solving these problems is primarily due to the low efficiency of law enforcement agencies in protecting property rights and economic interests of domestic entrepreneurs. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the development of a basic, universal organisational structure of the economic security service of a modern enterprise. Starting from the goal of creating an economic security service, using a systematic and risk-oriented approach, its tasks have been collected, defined and comprehensively analyzed. Taking into account the increased complexity and confidentiality of tasks, based on the structural and functional approach, the functions of the economic security service of the enterprise were formulated, which were structured and distributed to specific departments. Elements of scientific novelty are also the recognition of the existence of intelligence units of the economic security service of enterprises operating in violation of the law, as well as an analysis of their functions in order to develop the organisational structure of counterintelligence units.

The article suggests model for predicting the level of money laundering on the basis of data from the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation on the state of economic crime in Russia since the beginning of 2011. Using a seasonally integrated autoregressive moving average (SARIMA) model, it compares different regression models for the research tasks (linear regression, logistic regression, autoregressive and SARIMA). The necessity of taking into account seasonal regularities in the structure of money laundering was underlined, and the SARIMA model with the lowest deviations from the actual values was chosen. The necessity of taking into account seasonal regularities in the structure of money laundering was underlined, and the SARIMA model with the lowest deviations from the actual values was chosen. The article presents the results of data analysis using the method of least squares, calculating the mean squared error (MSE). High accuracy of short-term forecasts was noted: the deviation from the actual number of cases is about three cases (with the average number of cases being 68 over the last 10 years). The forecasting model can be recommended for implementation in the analytical complexes of financial monitoring and supervisory authorities.

The purpose of this study is to study the possibilities of applying the turquoise type organization model in creative industries, where there is a need for constant staff development to achieve maximum results. When analyzing the turquoise organization model, a number of factors should be taken into account, on which it relies, and also choose from a number of them those that really have a significant impact on the formation of the turquoise approach in creative industries. At a certain stage, from a non-standard creative management model, one way or another, it is necessary to return to traditional management methods while maintaining the basic principles of the turquoise organization, which can be considered as a standard. The introduction of such tools into the creative team/process management system qualitatively improves the mechanism of managerial decision-making, and also allows it to be debugged through unidirectional actions of both managers and the entire creative team. To implement the task of standardization, a universal model of quantitative assessment of qualitative indicators was developed, taking into account the dynamics of their changes. At the same time, a model was built for selecting indicators for the formation of a set of personnel characteristics in order to benchmark them relative to the level of the same characteristics of the turquoise organization, taking into account the possibility of their transversal change over time.

The article explores the issue of the structural transformation of the contemporary American academic system, namely one of the main formats existing in it – universities and their functioning during the first months of the spread of coronavirus infection. The COVID-19 pandemic has had the vast and most comprehensive impact on the higher education systems of the first world countries, which was demonstrated in the article. It is worth noting that the actively current trends of digitalisation, computerisation and the general implementation of the advancements of the scientific and technological progress of the higher education system were overlapped by the new emergency conditions of the pandemic and the need to choose a different format of functioning in the current situation. The ongoing transformations and structural alterations are most visible in the United States of America, due to a number of factors – from the historical dynamism of the development of the American higher education system to its active role in the development and rollout of technological advancements. The American academic system is introduced and analysed in two main formats: public universities and private ones. Each group of the indicated universities has chosen its own strategy of functioning and implemented it in practice, resting on individual factors and conditions. Nevertheless, there is already a separation between these two large groups of American universities in the implementation of functioning strategies during the coronavirus pandemic. The analysis of factors, conditions, contexts and actions of universities from these groups allows us to understand not only the dynamics of the development of the American academic system at the moment but also will allow us to comprehend its future transformations and alterations.
