Practical Experience in Organizational and Managerial Activities in Projects for the Re-Profiling of Urban Areas on the Example of Moscow
Construction in modern Russia isa strategically important industry, since it is the driver of economic development, reviving the huge industrial potential and supporting a huge number of industries related to construction work. In 2019, 80.3 million square meters of housing were commissioned in Russia - this is 5 % more than in 2018, but slightly less than the peak values of 2014 and 2015, when the volume of commissioning was close to 85 million square meters. The share of the ten key regions in terms of new construction in 2019 was 44.7 %, which is 0.8 % higher than in 2018. At the same time, the pandemic has had a negative impact on the industry, effectively freezing it in the second quarter of 2020. The government program introduced in June 2020 to finance preferential mortgages in the Russian Federation, in fact, allowed the industry to survive during the worst crisis of recent years, while providing significant support to the development of many other segments of the Russian economy [1]. Despite the positive statistics, there were also negative factors that negatively affect the development of construction, which led to the bankruptcy of a huge number of companies and millions of square meters of unfinished housing. For the most part, the bankruptcy of construction companies is associated with an insufficiently effective investment policy, a lack of resources for the implementation of developed projects, as well as negative aspects in the application of management methods for these projects. Often, developers have to implement social infrastructure facilities, which complicates their financial stability even more significantly. Especially project management has become popular in the conditions of re-profiling of urban areas, when entire areas with full infrastructure are being built on the site of industrial huts or dilapidated buildings. In these conditions, the question arises of working out measures to improve the management mechanism of projects for the re-profiling of territories, which will allow bringing the activities of construction companies to a new level of their development.
