Abstract
The article discusses the issues of improving measures to optimize the process of modernizing the Trans-Siberian Railway using digital economy technologies. The digital economy provides for the implementation of a number of measures that stimulate the introduction of information and telecommunication technologies in most of the economic sectors of Russia. In the new interpretation, three components of the “Digital Economy” methodology are noted: information infrastructure of e-business, network e-business, e-commerce. All of these components are also part of the Digital Railroad Bratskoe. The railway is the backbone of the entire transport complex of the Russian Federation and is of great socioeconomic, political and defense importance. Compared to other modes of transport, railway transport is determined not only by the large value of the main economic indicators, but also by the volume of transportation work performed, both in freight and passenger traffic. The technological and economic effects from the development and implementation of digitalization projects for both freight and passenger transportation have been determined. A comparative analysis of the used services based on digital technologies was carried out for the predicted economic effect. The project “Digital Railway” was analyzed, in particular, one of the pilot projects “Digital Depot”, implemented on the basis of the service locomotive depot SLD Bratskoye. The effectiveness of this measure is difficult to fully assess due to the relatively short implementation period. The first data for calculating the technical and economic efficiency are analyzed; a forecast for the future is presented.
Highlights
Issues related to the prospects for the development of the digital economy and affecting the interests of both economic entities and ordinary people are becoming more and more relevant
The Digital Railroad Model of the Russian Railways Company is a special matrix of service blocks in which certain categories of automated solutions are placed in conjunction with aspects of the digital model of a business project
Having analyzed the Digital Depot project, which really corresponds to the concept of the Russian Railways company, as well as Transmashholding JSC regarding digital initiatives, in particular, Digital Railway, Smart Locomotive, which made it possible to make a choice regarding the Vikhorevka Vostochno- Siberian Traction Directorate, where AC electric locomotives "Ermak" were delivered [5]
Summary
Issues related to the prospects for the development of the digital economy and affecting the interests of both economic entities and ordinary people are becoming more and more relevant. We can talk about the active development of digital technologies with the continuation of this process in the near future, as a result of which these trends cannot be ignored for many areas. It is difficult to imagine a person's life without digital technologies that contribute to increasing the competitiveness of the transport industry, improving interaction with customers, taking into account their needs in order to understand what proposal should be developed, and approve new services based on them for demand. The fundamental factor for mastering the achievements of digitalization in accordance with the Long-term development program of the Russian Railways company is considered as the possibility of creating a truly unified information space for freight transportation and logistics in order to increase the profitability of the entire freight market, logistics business in particular, without unforeseen costs arise [1].
