The article reveals a new approach and justifies the system of indicators for a comprehensive assessment of the socio-economic efficiency of the use of infocommuni-cation technologies in public administration organizations, taking into account the many manifestations of the effect and consequences based on the application of the integrated expert method. Application and further development of ICT in public administration is creating new opportunities for solving national and regional problems. At the same time, the share of electronic control processes entails not only positive but also negative effects for both government workers and the population, which is to solve their problems takes a direct interaction with the public through ICT system. Integral-expert method consists in obtaining quantitative assessments of efficiency through expert evaluation of its parameters for a set of private indicators of economic and social efficiency, reflecting the positive and negative consequences of the application of ICT. To solve the problem of integrated measurement of the effectiveness of the use of ICT in the public administration of the authors, private indicators were analyzed and systematized, on the basis of which a questionnaire of an expert survey of users of ICT in public administration was developed. The integral-expert method served as a basis for constructing a model for assessing the current and possible state, taking into account many factors, effects and consequences in connection with the formation of an information society based on the results of an expert survey. Approbation of the proposed methodology for assessing the effectiveness of the use of ICT in the public administration system was carried out on the basis of a survey of specialists from government bodies (Ministry of Communications of Russia, RCC) and production organizations (PJSC MGTS, PJSC Baltic Leasing). The obtained results made it possible not only to evaluate in quantitative terms the effectiveness of the use of ICT in public administration in the current and prospective periods, but also to identify the reasons for the insufficient level of efficiency in the use of ICT in the public administration system.

The sector of information and communication technologies (ICT) occupies a central position today in the innovative development of key areas of the society's life, such as state and municipal management, business in the production of goods and services, education, medicine, etc. In modem conditions for the person the degree of distribution of ICT and quality of granting of services in an electronic kind which with arrival of "an information age" associate with the most valuable for it - time economy have special value. Various forms of commercial and state institutional structures are also an integral and priority part of their strategic development, which also place public and commercial services in electronic form. Thus, the introduction and application of ICT in the public administration of the Russian Federation requires a systematic analysis and methodological justification of its parameters [2].
To assess the development of the infocommunication sector around the world and its impact on the formation of the information society, international organizations collect and analyze statistical data on the following multi-component indices: the development of the ^-Government Development Index (EGDI); Readiness for the network society (Networked Readiness Index, NRI); Development of ICT (ICT Development Index, IDI) [3,4]. The Partnership for Measuring ICT Indicators, which includes 10 international and regional organizations (OECD, Eurostat, ITU, UNCTAD, UNESCO, ECLAC, ESCAP, ESCWA, F.CA and the World Bank) is key to the development of statistical standards in this field. The list of key indicators of ICT consists of 53 indicators in six areas of the information society formation.
State Russian statistics for the development of infocommunication infrastructure, the use of ICT and the movement towards the information society are built on the international system of indicators and the principles of international cooperation and the exchange of statistical data with international organizations [3, 4]. The system of indicators of the information society statistics in the Russian Federation includes six groups of indicators covering the ICT sector, ICT infrastructure, content and media sectors, the use of ICT in national economy organizations, households and the population, as well as international comparisons around the world [3].
The application and further development of ICT in the public administration system creates new opportunities for solving national and regional problems. At the same time, the electrification of management processes entails not only positive but also negative effects for both state employees and the population, which, in order to resolve its issues, interacts directly with the state system with the help of ICT,
In this regard, the task of a comprehensive measurement of the effectiveness of ICT application in the public administration system involves the use of methods and methods that most fully reflect all the positive and negative aspects of electronic governance and would allow assessing the current and possible state in view of the multitude of factors, effects and Consequences in connection with the formation of the information society. This approach is the method of expert interview, integral resultant and cost effectiveness indicators, which are based on a system of generalized and particular indicators of economic, social and political effectiveness.
The conducted researches in the field of ICT application showed that the solution of this problem is at the intersection of such sciences as qualimetry, expert technologies and methods of constructing complex indicators [1,5, 8]. The methodical apparatus of the integral evaluation of the socio-economic efficiency of ICT application and the development of infocommunications developed in accordance with [7, 8] in connection with the formation of the information society is based on the application of an integrated expert method.
When developing an integrated system of integrated expert assessment of the effectiveness of ICT application in the public administration system, it is important to study the influencing factors and select key particular performance indicators {Figure 1),
On the one hand, ICTs initiate structural transformations in the public administration system that can lead to a synergistic effect of additional innovations; on the other hand, it is necessary to take into account the increasing risks of cyber attacks on the information state system and the problems of ensuring the sustainable operation and security of the public system.
Therefore, in order to create a secure, harmonious and effective electronic interaction between public authorities and the public, systematic monitoring of the results of implemented ICTs in the public system is required, making decisions on how to further effectively interact, and preventing virtual and real threats, protecting against unauthorized access to public Resources and information [2].
The integral-expert method consists in obtaining quantitative assessments of efficiency by means of expert evaluation of its parameters on a set of partial indicators of economic and social efficiency that reflect the positive and negative consequences of ICT use and serves as the basis for constructing a system of indicators of the effectiveness of ICT application in the public administration system [2, 6, 7 ] (Figure 2).
The application of expert survey methods includes four major procedures:
substantiation of private performance indicators reflecting the most significant economic and social indicators of the positive and negative effects of ICT in the public administration system;
* establishing the importance (weight) of private economic and social indicators that reflect the positive and negative effects of ICT in the public administration system;
the construction of the integrated indicator model on the basis of generalizing indicators that reflect the positive and negative effects of ICT application in the public administration system, in quantitative terms;
assessment of the state and potential of the effectiveness of ICT application in the public administration system for the long term.
To determine the practical acceptability of the proposed methodology for assessing the effectiveness of ICT application in the public administration, we conducted a survey of specialists from government bodies (Ministry of Communications of Russia, RCC) and production organizations (PJSC MGTS, PJSC Baltic Leasing).

On the advisability of including private indicators in the model of an integrated assessment of the effectiveness of ICT application in the public administration (points) and their importance (weight) in the context of generalizing indicators (in%).
The consolidated results of the integrated assessment of the effectiveness of ICT application in the public administration system are given in Table 2.
Integral gain efficiency ICTs calculated as the quotient of the effective integral index ICT to the cost effectiveness of the integral indicator: Keff= Pint.rez/Pint.zatr = 2.35 /2.1 = 1.12 re I. u.
The results indicate a fairly high level of efficiency of the use of ICT in public administration in 2016 - 1.12 and its potential growth in 2020. First of all, the positive economic effects will be caused by innovative development and deepening of ICT implementation in the control system (2 8 to 4.2 points), the growth state management efficiency (from 3.2 to 4.0 points), improve performance monitoring statistics (from 3.2 to 4.0 points) and simultaneous saving of material resources (with 3.0 to 2.8 points), hi the aspect of social efficiency w ill be observed a positive trend in the reduction of time for the delivery of public ser-
vices to the population (from 4.3 to 3.5 points), as well as the growth of the inte I lectua ligation of labor (from 3.2 to 4.0 points).

At the same time it requires an increase in the costs of information security governance (from 3.2 to 4.2 points) on the light against cyber terrorism (from 3.0 to 3.8 points), to create a national data bank on public services and a unified system of their provision at all levels (from 3.0 to 3.3 points), as well as addressing regional disparities in access of the population to the "Internet" (from 2.8 to 3.0 points).
Thus, the proposed method of socio-economic efficiency of the use of ICT in public administration not only provides a reasonable description of the process of public administration elec-tronization in the current and perspective period but also opens and specifies Ihe ways of increasing the efficiency of the use of ICT in public administration.

Aннотация
Раскрывается новый подход и обосновывается система показателей комплексной оценки социально-экономической эффективности применения инфокоммуникационных технологий в организациях государственного управления с учетом множества проявлений эффекта и последствий на основе применения интегрально-экспертного метода. Применение и дальнейшее развитие ИКТ в системе государственного управления создает новые возможности для решения национальных и региональных задач. При этом, электронизация процессов управления влечет за собой не только положительные, но и отрицательные эффекты как для государственных работников, так и населения, которое для решения своих вопросов вступает во прямое взаимодействие с государственной системой с помощью ИКТ. Интегрально-экспертный метод состоит в получении количественных оценок эффективности посредством экспертного оценивания ее параметров по совокупности частных показателей экономической и социальной эффективности, отражающих положительные и отрицательные последствия применения ИКТ. Для решения задачи комплексного измерения эффективности применения ИКТ в системе государственного управления авторами были проанализированы и систематизированы частные показатели, на основе которых была разработана анкета экспертного обследования пользователей ИКТ в сфере государственного управления. Интегрально-экспертный метод послужил основой построения модели оценки текущего и возможного состояния с учетом множества факторов, эффектов и последствий во взаимосвязи с формированием информационного общества на основе результатов экспертного опроса. Апробация предлагаемой методики оценки эффективности применения ИКТ в системе государственного управления была осуществлена на основе опроса специалистов органов государственной власти (Минкомсвязи России, РСС) и производственных организаций (ПАО "МГТС", ПАО "Балтийский лизинг"). Полученные результаты дали возможность не только оценить в количественном выражении эффективность применения ИКТ в государственном управлении в текущем и перспективном периодах, но и выявить причины недостаточного уровня эффективности применения ИКТ в системе государственного управления.
