Subject The article deals with the problems and peculiarities of formation of regional target programs at the present time. The subject of the research is the program-target planning system in the regions of the Russian Federation.
     Objectives The purpose of the article is a review of the evaluation of the effectiveness of program planning in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation using the experience of the Tyumen region.
     Results The authors have analyzed the impact of the changes made in the budget code of the Russian Federation concerning the mandatory transition of regions to State programs on the regional program and budget process. The authors found that the formation of new-type programs (State and municipal) requires serious changes in regions target planning and improving the quality of regional programming. The authors developed a technique to evaluate the effectiveness of programs at all stages of the product life cycle, from creation to implementation monitoring. The authors applied the methodology to assess the effectiveness of long-term target programs of the Tyumen region for 2012-2013 and 2014-2015 timeframe.
     Conclusions and Relevance The analysis of the programs and the results of the assessment confirmed the need to establish new mechanisms of the system program management. These mechanisms should include strengthening of goal-setting and an integrated approach to programs and activities, taking into account the targets, resources, timelines and performers. Also, updating and making adjustments in program documents are necessary as deviations from the projected targets arise. In addition, the mechanisms should contain criteria of increase of program manageability and regular assessment of the effectiveness and contribution to the development of the economy. And finally, new mechanisms for program management should strengthen the responsibility of officials for ineffective programs.
