The improvement of urban systems based on the active use of information technologies, which is necessary to achieve these goals, requires specialists with appropriate qualifications. This article uses a methodological approach to the study of human resource development from the perspective of two-way communication between producers and consumers of an innovative product. The educational, structural-industry and information technology aspects of development are considered. The results of the analysis are presented, and the methods of partnership cooperation between higher educational institutions and representatives of the business community in the construction and housing and utilities sectors are identified. The experience in the field of training and retraining specialists in construction specialties with elements of student research has been synthesized. The prospects for improving the system of personnel training in the field of housing and communal services are identified. A SWOT analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of urban modernization has been carried out. Among the weaknesses, the failure of highly qualified specialists was revealed. Among the threats is the absence of a legislative and methodological framework in many areas of housing and communal services reforming. In the annex to the concept of “smart cities”, Rohmer’s model is considered, confirming the primary role of human resources in reforming and further operating the urban infrastructure. It is shown that the success of the initiative of a smart city depends on personnel, processes and technologies.
Efficiency in the use of energy resources is a priority for the “smart cities” trajectory of sustainable development. This is an essential condition for improving the economic, social and environmental well-being of citizens in general. The importance of life systems orientation to the consumer as an effective user is emphasized. The factors of sustainable development of technologies were identified: updating and modernization of fixed assets in the fuel and energy complex and other sectors of the economy, social and industrial infrastructure on a new technological and energy-efficient basis; provision of forecasting, full accounting and regulation of energy resources consumption, as well as reduction of their losses. The directions of increasing the energy systems efficiency in various sectors are generalized. The necessity of developing human resources through digital skills training was emphasized.
Today, robots are actively being introduced in all sectors of the economy from the production of industrial goods to the service sector. The leader in this area is China, it is ahead of the United States and Europe. Russian industrialists are quite conservative in technological updates. It was emphasized that robotics and automation, combined with the cybernation, mark a radical turning point in society. The importance of industrial automation in solving technical, technological, socio-economic and environmental problems is shown. Models of economic growth in industry, in particular P. Romer, confirm that the rate of economic growth is directly dependent on the amount of technological innovations. The negative aspects of automation, which consist in a sharp reduction in employment, are also emphasized, but long-term forecasts, on the contrary, indicate its increase, but a change in the structure of professions.
Regional development determines the development of society as a whole, taking into account the peculiarities of its potential. Human potential in its various aspects is characterized as the basis for development, including socioeconomic. This article proposed a methodological approach to the formation and development of human potential, based on the dual nature of this category. Human potential is positioned as the ultimate goal and as a means of achieving the goals of socioeconomic development. A meaningful distinction has been made between the characteristics of human potential and human capital, taking into account their categorical essence and the essence of their related categories. The features of the position of human potential in the region strategic development in terms of its formation and implementation are determined. The dual character is revealed in the essence of the studied category in the application to the education system. The features of the relationship of human potential and innovative socioeconomic development of the region are investigated. The results of the analysis of completed and running investment projects in the Voronezh region are presented. The fundamental research, technological development and production interaction model has been improved taking into account the characteristics of the human potential of the region as an example of the Voronezh region. The directions of the human potential formation and realization of the Voronezh region are methodologically grounded taking into account its development strategy.
