Renat Lashin, Executive Director of the Association of Software Developers "Domestic Software", believes that all requirements for the transition of critical information infrastructure to domestic software will be mostly met. "First of all, this concerns the software sector. However, some difficulties may arise with the usa mobile number database transition to domestic hardware platforms. Currently, the platforms of industrial competence centers (ICC) and development competence centers (DCC) are creating missing solutions and refining existing ones. Literally in one to three years, these products will begin to be actively implemented by large customers. In general, delaying and postponing the transition of critical information infrastructure to Russian software is unacceptable, as this will entail additional risks of information security and loss of access control to solutions and the data stored in them, which organizations will continue to use," he commented.

at the Polylog agency and developer of Polycode, reported that key industry GIS are considered critical information infrastructure objects. "Since 2025, it is prohibited to use foreign components in them, so the owners of these systems simply have no choice: they will have to switch to Russian software anyway. Two years is a period during which you can do a lot, especially if you consider that import substitution processes in government agencies began long before 2022," she believes. "Namely, in 2015, with the release of RF PP 1236, which prohibited the admission of foreign software for state and municipal needs. It is more difficult with state-owned companies, because they initially had fewer requirements for the transition to domestic software. The key barrier can be bureaucracy, complex interdepartmental approvals, etc. This is especially true for purchases under 44-FZ and 223-FZ. Practice shows that the customer spends a lot of time on forming and coordinating requirements, planning events, bringing funding, launching and conducting competitive procedures. Sometimes more than on the development itself. Thus, from the initiative to the release can go years. To achieve success, it is extremely important to work together, because many customers in various industries often have overlapping import substitution tasks. Yes, you will probably have to reinvent the wheel from scratch somewhere. But it is important not to do this in parallel in ten different ways, but to exchange experiences and jointly solve similar problems. Just the other day, Advisor to the Minister of Digital Development Alan Salbiev commented on the work of the ICC, which is designed to ensure the creation of analogues of the most significant foreign software for industry. He noted that one of the difficulties in the work of the ICC is precisely the lack of inter-industry and interdisciplinary connections."
