In 2023, the number of dashboards developed by specialists to support the activities of the Government of the Russian Federation exceeded 1,000 pieces. Based on the analysis of normative legal regulation on the example of the Government of the Russian Federation, the author concludes that at the moment the legislation lacks a system of legal norms that allow assessing the effectiveness of the creation of digital products in the system of public administration of the Russian Federation.

The research used general scientific methods: dialectical method, methods of formal logic, analytical method. As a solution to the problem, the author proposed to form a unified digital system in all regions of the Russian Federation, to approve a system of criteria for assessing the effectiveness of digital products in public administration and, based on the criteria proposed by the author, to evaluate the existing digital products in the regions and federal executive authorities of the Russian Federation. Thus, the author proposes to distinguish 3 categories of evaluation: economic, social and managerial. Economic evaluation is proposed to be carried out on the basis of saved funds and man-hours due to the creation of digital products. Social evaluation based on the criteria of accessibility and speed of services for citizens and the level of trust in the authorities. Managerial evaluation based on the criteria of eliminating duplicate powers and increasing the percentage of transition to digital data exchange.

The presented evaluation system, in the author's opinion, allows us to determine the necessity of using digital solutions at the stage of designing a solution to a problem.
