Formation of an Industrial Sector Strategy Using the Ex-Ample of Machine Tool Production

The events occurring in the Russian economy after the start of the Special Military Operation have aggravated the task of accelerated and comprehensive industrial development of the country. In this regard, the presented article examines approaches to the formation of strategies for industrial sectors, management tools used by the state for these purposes, and their application in the context of sanctions pressure. At the same time, development priorities are shifting from integration into the global division of labor to work focused on own resources, inclusion in local markets, cooperation with friendly countries. As part of solving the designated problem, theoretical views on the formation of industry strategies, existing regulatory documents, and the practice of the work carried out are considered, which made it possible to record the generalized structure of the industry strategy, the composition of its main components (functional strategies), and the sequence of key actions for preparation. The practical part of the work considers measures to develop the machine tool industry, which has been in a deplorable state in recent years. The current steps for its development are reflected from the formation of the industry strategy in 2020, even before the start of the SVO, up to new initiatives reflected in the national project "Means of Production and Automation", prepared in 2024 and aimed at accelerated development. It is noted that the priorities should be not only and not so much the restoration of the lagging production base, re-equipment and modernization of production, expansion of competencies and personnel training, but also at the same time a significant strengthening of the technological and innovative level of developments. From this angle, the key areas of additional support for industry, the tools used by the state for these purposes are studied. In conclusion, possible pain points for further development are recorded and measures to mitigate them are proposed.
