Aleksei Posokhov started his career with scientific research before becoming a senior financial and commercial manager for multiple global development projects. The academic research experience of Posokhov at international conferences established his reputation as a specialist who links scientific investigation to real-world implementation.
Multiple respected academic journals and conferences have published his scientific work. The Intelligence Plus journal published his research about innovation project evaluation methods, which studied risk assessment and entropy analysis, and import substitution as performance measurement tools. The International Youth Scientific Conference (“Generation of the Future”) hosted his presentation about how construction industry activities through infrastructure development create economic growth for nations.
Other research highlights include his analysis of algorithmic and high-frequency trading presented at an international scientific-practical conference, where he detailed the evolving models of stock market operations. He also authored work on problems of equipment supply for the construction industry in the context of import substitution, emphasizing how innovation policies could transform Russia’s production capacity. Beyond Russia, Posokhov’s international outlook was evident at the Global Conference on Business, Economy, Management, and Tourism in Rome, where he presented a comparative analysis of infrastructure development in the UK, Brazil, and Russia.
The key factor that sets Posokhov apart from other researchers is his capability to publish research findings as well as his ability to use this research approach for solving practical problems. The Lakhta Center project in St. Petersburg served as a demonstration of his skills because it included a 400,000-square-meter development with Europe’s tallest skyscraper reaching 462 meters.
The commercial and procurement management at Lakhta required Posokhov to lead the tendering process and handle procurement and post-contract management for essential work packages, including steel structures and façades, on-site utilities, façade lighting, and internal engineering systems. The FIDIC-based contract structure with the general contractor required him to lead negotiations about change requests and performance time extension claims.
The scientific method he used in his research proved essential for his work in procurement planning and tender reporting. Posokhov used his academic research standards to create data-based recommendations that provided Gazprom Neft with clear decision-making information. His team executed more than 60 work packages worth $1.6 billion USD during his tenure. The company awarded him a commendation for being the top employee of the quarter.
His career success stems from his ability to unite scientific methods with practical applications, according to his colleagues. A senior manager observed that Aleksei maintains a unified approach between his research activities and his work execution. His research-based methodology guides his work in procurement and financial planning and contract development at the same level he used in his academic publications.
The scientific foundation of his work continues to guide Posokhov in his present international giga-project contributions. His work demonstrates how research-based methods create innovative solutions and project stability for massive undertakings.
