A Systematic Approach to the Management of a Construction Complex under the Conditions of Digitalization

Abstract

The study of industry digitalization in Russia is relevant and promising in accordance with global trends and the main strategic documents of the Russian Federation in the context of increasing productivity, reducing costs, and increasing efficiency. The purpose of this study is to describe a systematic approach to managing a construction complex under the conditions of the digitalization of the economy from the micro level (the level of organizations) to the level of municipalities and regions. The article describes the process of transition to digitalization at the micro level in a construction complex and also analyzes the options for digitizing investment and construction projects at the micro level. It also describes the structural integration of a construction complex from the micro level to the level of the municipality/region through information services and through formed proposals for the formation of a management system for such construction complexes in municipalities and regions of Russia under the conditions of the digitalization of the economy. Based on the conducted analysis and the formed proposals, problems regarding the management of a construction complex of a municipality/region under the conditions of the digital economy are identified, namely: (1) a lack of developed standards for regulating the digital modeling of buildings; (2) a low level of employee ownership of software complexes that form building information modeling at the micro level; (3) the need for the continuous professional development of employees; and (4) the poor integration of some software products. In the future, based on the results of this study, it will be possible to form the structure of an information system for managing urban development and the space of municipalities, as well as a strategic approach to managing these digital processes at the municipal and regional levels in the regions of Russia.
