The replacement of software and equipment should not be fragmented, when companies look for domestic solutions only due to the lack of imported analogues and alone, experts believe. The industry is grateful to the state for legislative support in reorienting itself to national products, but asks to form a clearer action plan and ensure government content writing service procurement. At the same time, personnel for the new IT economy are better in regions where large industrial enterprises operate. This opinion was expressed by participants in the conference "Industry 4.0: Facing New Challenges".
ON YOUR RAILS
About 90% of the equipment in the IT infrastructure of the T Plus Group is foreign, Igor Yakimov, head of the company's IT Strategy and Development Center, said at a conference. He believes that about 7 billion rubles will be needed to completely replace imported systems with domestic ones.

- We are not ready to do this at once. Fortunately, the company has a serious backup of channels using solutions from Russian manufacturers.
Deputy Head of the Center for Industry Digital Technologies of the Rosatom State Corporation Alexander Rassomagin confirmed:
To quickly change the existing IT landscape, the entire network needs to be redesigned
This will result in tenfold costs, and investors are not always prepared to bear such expenses.
There are a large number of cloud programs on the market. If a company is unable to close a technology line now, it can temporarily use a virtual infrastructure solution, noted Alexander Chernyshev, Head of Work with Government and Local Authorities at Webinar Group, in his speech.
Import substitution in the Russian Federation is proceeding at a good pace, Axoft analysts are confident. In a study published in March 2023, they reported that:
37% of Russian companies plan to replace foreign equipment;
57% of developers note the need of customers for an accelerated transition to domestic software.
Business has niches where it can develop. In the field of digital communications, it is mastering a 70 percent share of foreign video conferencing systems (VKS), which operated on the domestic market until 2022, said Alexander Chernyshev. Russian VKS solutions occupied only a third of the market.
Significantly increased equipment delivery times are preventing businesses from quickly transferring their IT infrastructure to domestic solutions
According to Konstantin Khromushkin, Deputy CEO for Innovative Development and Digital Transformation at 1520 Group, the average delivery time previously ranged from 8 to 16 weeks, but has now increased to almost 40.
In addition to the fact that equipment is sometimes not supplied, some of it does not always meet the stated specifications, emphasized Alexander Rassomagin.
