The problem lies in searching for the most effective tools, sources of knowledge, and solutions that contribute to improving ecological well-being, including through the adoption of nature-like technologies. The research aim is to substantiate the role of digital engineering in ensuring sustainable development and to identify priority directions for the development of production systems in the context of Russian realities. Research methods: systems analysis, formalization, comparison, statistical analysis, mathematical modeling were employed. Results: the influence of digital engineering on the sustainable development of production systems and the role of nature-like technologies are substantiated; the convergence of digitalization processes and the concept of sustainable development in the form of the \u00abdigital engineering\u2013nature-like technologies\u00bb dyad is revealed; patterns of development of Russian production systems in the \u00abdesign and engineering\u2013environmental aspects of sustainable development\u00bb plane are identified; and alternative models for managing the technological development of production systems with a focus on ecological well-being are developed. Scientific novelty of the research: based on multidimensional nonlinear analysis, the importance of the convergence of digital engineering and nature-like technologies is proven, and priority directions for the development of production systems that contribute to achieving sustainable development goals under the policy of import substitution and technological leadership implemented in Russia are identified. The formulated theoretical and methodological provisions advance the field of knowledge in industrial economics and sustainable development and are applicable within the planning and programming of activities for production systems at various levels.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/systems14020140","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,29]],"date-time":"2026-01-29T12:49:07Z","timestamp":1769690947000},"page":"140","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["System Analysis of Environmental Effects: A Case of Sustainable Development in the Russian Economy Based on Digital Engineering"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5875-1988","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Farida F.","family":"Galimulina","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Logistics and Management Department, Kazan National Research Technological University, 420015 Kazan, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1881-4630","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aleksei I.","family":"Shinkevich","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Logistics and Management Department, Kazan National Research Technological University, 420015 Kazan, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Naira V.","family":"Barsegyan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Logistics and Management Department, Kazan National Research Technological University, 420015 Kazan, Russia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"35","article-title":"Advanced Engineering School \u00abDigital engineering\u00bb: Engineering master\u2019s programs implemented jointly with industrial partners","volume":"1","author":"Borovkov","year":"2024","journal-title":"Prof. J.
