This article is devoted to the need to use modern digital technologies in the work of municipal and government employees. In the article, the authors emphasize that the modern innovative structure of the science cities of the Russian Federation is aimed at creating unique scientific and technical  products, therefore, in order to strengthen Russia’s position on the world stage, it is important  to develop these municipalities and introduce new breakthrough information technologies into them.   Using the example of the first science city of the Russian Federation, Obninsk, the paper analyzes  the process of interaction between ministries, the city Administration and enterprises of the scientific and industrial complex during the preparation and submission of annual reports to confirm the status.  The authors note that today the data collection process in municipalities is imperfect and requires changes. The authors of the article propose to develop and implement a new information portal «Science Cities of the Russian Federation» for operational communication of federal, regional, local authorities and NPC enterprises. This system will be as secure and user-friendly as possible, all data in it will be protected  by a special electronic signature key.

Thanks to the portal, it will be possible to coordinate documents and make decisions as soon as possible, improve the quality of services provided, efficiency, efficiency, and it will also ensure transparency of the work of employees at all levels of government. This system will help attract new taxpayers to the science cities of  the Russian Federation and ensure the attraction of private investment, which will be aimed at creating and modernizing the existing scientific, industrial, social and residential infrastructure in municipalities.
