Approaches to the Formation of the Powers Register for Federal Executive Bodies

Abstract

The government effectiveness increase remains a challengeable task in the current management research and practice agenda for the last decade. At the same time experts rather often propose as a solution tool for this task a formalized and complete description of federal executive authorities’ activity.
The goal of this paper is the development of the automated federal authorities’ powers registry conception as a means to describe executive authorities’ activity. The registry implementation will help to realize the transfer to a new order of resource support for government authorities’ activity.
In this paper we demonstrate the conception of legal regulation for the Registry (doing changes in President’s Order of March 9, 2004 № 314 «About a System and Structure of Federal Executive Authorities») and means of its update. The authors propose to manage the Registry in the format of government information system. The links between the Registry and other relevant government information systems are outlined
as well. We describe possible attributes in the Registry. We design a mechanism for relationship establishment by means of the Registry between federal authorities’ powers and their provision process with personnel and fi nancial resources (including necessary changes in budgetary process).
