Abstract

In the article, based on a continuous analysis of officially published data on production and economic activities of the Federal Penitentiary Service (FSIN), FSIN directorates for the subjects of the federation and correctional institutions, a comprehensive study of the current state of the production potential of the penitentiary system including its productive forces has been conducted. A number of key macro- and microeconomic problems were identified: low transparency of production and economic activities of the FSIN; underloading of existing production facilities; A low level of information for potential business partners about the production capabilities of the FSIN institutions; insufficient effectiveness of economic management in correctional colonies; difficulty in implementing business initiatives of convicts; insufficient level of nutrition of productive workers. A number of practical measures for development of production potential are proposed: introduction of periodic public reporting of correctional facilities on social and production aspects of their activity; continuous audit of available production resources and public distribution of its results; adoption of regulations for cooperation between entrepreneurs who organized production in correctional colonies, administration and convicts; creation of industrial penitentiary parks; assistance in realization of business ideas of convicts, activation of agricultural work in correctional colonies, conducting of marketing self-examination; the creation of a single online store of the Federal Penitentiary Service, the holding of centralized campaigns to promote products produced in correctional colonies.
