Application of a functional management assessment model in conjunction with MVP and GAP analysis to improve quality management of the federal project «Building a network of modern campuses»

DOI: 10.33917/mic-2.121.2025.90-100

This article examines the organizational and economic aspects of applying the functional management assessment model in conjunction with MVP and GAP analysis to improve quality management of the federal project «Building a network of modern Campuses» in modern conditions. The communication profile of the federal project management methodology was built using a functional management assessment model.

The paper shows that GAP analysis makes it possible to identify discrepancies between the current level of quality of the educational infrastructure and the required level of quality defined by the goals of the federal project. The analysis allows you to identify key areas that require improvements, such as technical equipment, safety, accessibility for people with disabilities, shows that GAP analysis makes it possible to identify discrepancies between the current level of quality of the educational infrastructure and the required level of quality defined by the goals of the federal project. The analysis allows you to identify key areas that require improvements, such as technical equipment, safety, accessibility for people with disabilities, etc. Based on the results of the annals on the results of the analysis of the MVP model of the Mediaplan Information System, the authors came to the conclusion that the necessary quality control principles are embedded in the system and cannot be circumvented, which allows us to reduce the distance between the expectations of the target audience and stakeholders of the project and reality, and in emergency cases promptly implement changes «on the ground».

Study on the spatial effect of high-quality development of China’s energy industry on economic growth. Part 1

DOI: 10.33917/mic-2.121.2025.106-110

The energy system is a complex multi-dimensional and multi-criteria optimization system, and the energy development levels in different regions and at different stages of development are different. The Development and Reform Commission of China and the Energy Administration in the «Strategy for Energy Production and Revolution (2016–2030)» proposed that China’s inter-regional energy transformation should be based on security and focus on high-quality development, so as to promote the spatial effect of energy development on economic growth. This paper selects data from 30 provinces in China from 2000 to 2022, and uses Moran’s index and spatial Durbin’s error model to study the impact and spatial effect of China’s energy industry development on economic growth.

State and prospects of scientific and technical co-operation and development of the EAEU

DOI: 10.33917/mic-2.121.2025.14-23

Globalisation, accompanied by the industrial leadership of «developed countries», is being replaced by regionalisation, which is built on conditions of equality and cooperation in common interests. The EU and the Eurasian Economic Union are illustrative examples of the international organisation of regional economic integration. In the context of changes in the architecture of the global technological system, the EAEU faces the task of deepening scientific and technical co-operation. On the agenda is the issue of reducing the level of import dependence in a number of types of finished products, the solution to these issues is associated with the involvement of research base: Eurasian technology platforms, the work of which is aimed at consolidating the scientific potential of the EAEU countries on the way to achieving technological sovereignty. The article analyses the organisation of scientific and technical cooperation in the EU in order to use this experience to solve problems and justify the prospects of scientific and technical cooperation and industrial cooperation within the EAEU.

System of sources of intellectual property rights as a key tool for protecting intellectual property and stimulating innovation and the development of the global economy

DOI: 10.33917/mic-2.121.2025.24-39

This article examines the methodological aspects of the formation of a system of sources of intellectual property (IP) law as a key tool for protecting intellectual property and stimulating innovation in modern conditions.

It is determined that the practice of the economic judicial Board of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation in trademark protection cases should be improved, including with regard to formal requirements for the preparation and consideration of court cases. It is shown that in modern legal practice, trademarks are considered only as legal instruments with which copyright holders have the right to prevent the production and sale of identical or confusingly similar products by opponents. The use of existing means to protect the interests of copyright holders within the framework of the “fuzzy” concept of trademarks allows all business entities and authorities to take a fresh look at trademarks: not only as a legal instrument, but also as an organizational and economic instrument. Intellectual property, as an intangible asset with commercial value, like any object of copyright ownership, can be seriously affected by the actions of third parties. Such damage must be compensated by the copyright holder in court. Thus, violators may be held civilly or criminally liable for the illegal use of such trademarks or service marks. The trademark owner has the right to demand compensation for damages and has the right to publish the court’s decision in the mass media. It should also be noted that trademarks and service marks are a means of personalizing goods and their manufacturers. Trademarks and service marks have different concepts, functions, and types. The legislation of the Russian Federation provides for civil or criminal liability for illegal use. It is shown that the system of sources of intellectual property rights is complex and multilevel.
