Abstract

The research delves into the regional problems of public administration of communications infrastructure. In the context of the digital industry, it serves as the crucial factor in accelerating the socio-economic development of Russia and its regions and promotes the integrity of the Russian Federation’s economic space. The methodological basis includes the studies of Russian and foreign scholars on problems in managing communications infrastructure, information and communications technologies, the RF digital economy in general and its regions in particular. The authors apply the methods of analysis and synthesis, mathematical statistics and economic positioning of regions. The research results demonstrate the state of the industry in Russian regions: abundance and application of fixed assets, which allows assessing if they are in a plentiful or limited supply; availability of communication services; development of information and communications technologies in the industry. The authors perform the positioning of the RF subjects in the coordination system: abundance of fixed assets in the communication industry, their application – availability of information and communications technologies in the communication industry – availability of communication. This makes it possible to establish the targets for improving the system’s management in a particular region. The paper identifies the restrictions hampering the development of communications infrastructure: territorial digital inequality; poor availability of communication services for remote territories; low level of scientific and technical progress, insufficient introduction of Internet services. The research proposes the public administration tools to neutralize these restrictions. The results can be used to develop an effective public system of communications infrastructure management at regional level amid digital transformation.
