Abstract

Strategic interoperability is crucial for the BRICS mission, i.e., establishing an equitable and sustainable economic system to accelerate the development of member countries, reduce their dependence on Western economies, and strengthen their influence on the global community. In the era of global digitalization, any cooperation is based on information and communication technologies, where interoperability provides a seamless integration of information systems. The article investigates the interoperability of BRICS standards and its strategizing. The methodology relied on Professor V.L. Kvint’s general theory of strategy and methodology of strategizing, as well as on Professor A.Ya. Oleinikov’s methodology of interoperability. After proving the necessity of combining the efforts of specialists from the BRICS countries, the authors developed a conceptual scheme for harmonizing the international, regional, and national methods and standards of interoperability. It involves a scheme for a strategic monitoring system, an OTSW analysis, strategic opportunities for the interoperability, and strategic initiatives. Strategized interoperability ensures the technological independence of the BRICS countries as unified standards facilitate solving the key strategic management tasks within the BRICS mission framework.
