CONTRADICTIONS OF THE USE OF MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGY "OUTSOURCING" IN THE ARMED FORCES OF RUSSIAN FEDERATION

Abstract

The administrative reform introduced market-based management methods that have proven effective in the private sector of the Russian Federation's Armed Forces. This innovative method of public administration was considered to be outsourcing, which was supposed to help save financial resources and free management structures from their uncharacteristic functions. An analysis of the practice of outsourcing in the Russian army showed that instead of saving money, there was a multiple increase in the cost of services received on the market, and its use in the Armed Forces increased threats to national security. There is an urgent need to find out the reasons for this problem and ways of its’ solution.
