Differentiated Approach to the Strategic Planning of Industrial Development of the Regions of Russia

Purpose: the main objective of this article is to understand the need to formulate and then apply a single approach to strategic planning for industrial development of regions, which allows more rationally approaching strategic development planning, as separate regions and territories of the Russian Federation, and individual industries, taking into account their level of modern economic and social development, as well as their provision with various types of resources. To achieve this goal in the article it is necessary to solve the following tasks: to identify the features of management of industrial complexes in the region, to analyze the dynamics and unevenness of industrial development in key regions of Russia, to substantiate the objective necessity of targeted formation of recommendations on their industrial development. Methods: this article is written using a systematic, functional, comparative, structural, interdisciplinary approach, as well as macro and microeconomic analysis tools applied to the development of the regional industrial sector of the economy. Results: the article forms the idea of the expediency of applying a synthetic approach to the classification of Russian regions, which makes it possible to group the regions on the basis of quantitative indicators of social and economic development and qualitative indicators of institutional development, as well as long-term development factors of the region under consideration, taking into account the structure of the dominant industries. The presented dynamics of the development of the regions shows the unevenness of their functioning, which in turn justifies the necessity of applying a differentiated approach in the process of strategic planning for the development of the regional industries. Conclusions and Relevance: the materials outlined in the article show the multifaceted nature of the process of managing the development of the regional industry, which consists in the need to take into account the different, sometimes multidirectional tendencies and interests of participants in the economic process at all levels of management, and the lack of a unified approach to strategic planning. Within the framework of a unified approach to strategic planning for the development of the regional industries, an important element is the spread of the practice of applying the synthetic classification of regions. The application of a single approach to the classification of regions contributes to a more competent formation of industrial policies of individual regions of the country and territories of Russia, and also creates opportunities for targeted planning, including the activation of activities of individual industries and industrial enterprises.
