Order dated August 21, 2026, No. 2248-r

About 200 million rubles will be allocated from the Government’s reserve fund for the implementation of projects to increase labor productivity at industrial enterprises. An order to this effect has been signed.

With the allocated funds, it is planned to support no fewer than 40 projects that will be implemented at enterprises participating in the federal project “Labor Productivity” using digital solutions and best practices for improving planning efficiency. This concerns the development of production digitization processes and obtaining qualified expert assistance to eliminate inefficiencies in production processes.

The implementation of such projects will enable enterprises to achieve an annual labor productivity growth of at least five percent and ensure the reengineering of business processes based on lean manufacturing.

The issues of increasing labor productivity were devoted to strategic session, which was conducted by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin on June 30, 2026. The head of the cabinet noted that this should become one of the most effective instruments for economic growth.
