Importance It is important to empirically study the absorption capability of State scientific and technical programs and their results, since such programs involve R&D and experimental work exposed to high risk and uncertainty of final results.
Objectives The research aims at smoothing malfunction of Russia's innovative system in diffusion of results of State scientific and technical programs. I also point out the malfunction of Russia's national innovative system in diffusion of results of State scientific and technical programs, and provide my ideas for alleviating it.
Methods The research draws upon a set of empirical methods: questionnaire, survey, and examination. As the methodological underpinning for the systems analysis of absorption capability of the results, I applied methods for verbal analysis of solutions and the multiset theory, principles of a systems approach, general scientific methods: classification and structural analysis, combination of logic and functional methods, identification of cause-and-effect relations.
Results I provide methodological recommendations for arranging and holding a comprehensive examination of results of special-purposes State scientific and technical programs and performed a systems analysis of their absorption capability using the method of group and multivariate decision making.
Conclusions and Relevance The article identifies some areas for further improvements since the implementation of the results will entail significant expenditures and require production and ancillary space, staff training and other aspects.

Keywords: systems analysis, national innovative system, malfunction, diffusion, scientific and technical results, actor, innovative system
