R&D performance system as a basis for monitoring research and technological development

The study develops and specifies the approach previously proposed by the authors to the creation of a system for the evaluation of the effectiveness of research and technological activities in the Russian Federation. This system would serve as a foundation for monitoring scientific and technological progress in Russia and its regions, as well as R&D subjects and other elements of the science and innovation sphere. The authors identify the potential of this system to ensure the protection of the Russia’s domestic research and technological sector against unauthorized transfer of R&D results to foreign countries. It would also ensure compliance with secrecy and confidentiality regulations and provide additional opportunities for efficient public management of R&D sphere based on R&D performance data. The purpose of this study is to explore the potential use of the data provided by the system in addressing the most significant challenges facing the domestic science and technology sector in terms of safety and security, as well as protection against various threats. Additionally, we aim to contribute to the scientific, technological, and socio-economic development of Russia through the use of this system. In our analysis, we have applied principles from science and technology theories and strategies for scientific and technological advancement in Russia. We have also used verbal modeling approaches to analyze the potential impact of the system on the sector. Furthermore, we discuss potential additional measures that could be taken to enhance the effectiveness of the system, such as involving different stakeholders in the research and development process to ensure a more comprehensive approach.
