Today, sanatorium and resort institutions are undergoing a difficult period, in particular due to the spread of “Covid19” infection. It is assumed that against the backdrop of the crisis, domestic tourism will develop more, respectively, tourists will prefer to book tickets themselves, studying information on Internet resources. In this case, it is impossible to increase the efficiency of the enterprise and increase the demand for services without the use of innovative IT technologies to sanatoriums. The study showed that the activity of most sanatoriums on international online sites is very weak, as well as many of them do not conduct news feeds on official sites, ignore social networks as an effective mechanism for their promotion, as a result of which circumstances arise when the services provided by sanatoriums do not meet the expectations of vacationers. It should be recognized that the level of service in the sanatorium requires an increase, accordingly, it is necessary to carry out activities to position and qualitatively improve work on online services. The acquisition of competitive advantages and the preservation of loyalty of guests is the key functions of positioning and promoting sanatorium and resort institutions, which in turn will contribute to the management of the sustainable development of the territory of the Republic of Bashkortostan.

The paper provides a specific statistical evidence of uneven development of the service sector in the region, including a faster growth in the average monthly wage in some areas of the service sector. In particular, there is a relatively lower level of demand for jobs among service workers, workers in housing and utilities, trade and related activities (5.3% of total demand) whereas for those professions there is an above-average wage growth in comparison to the whole economy. Thus, the average monthly wage in the hotel and restaurant sector in January-May 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 was 134.1%, which is almost 23%> higher than the average salary increase for the whole economy. Particular attention is paid to the spatial organization of catering in Makhachkala. As a result of cartographic data placement of objects and their subsequent analysis identified are 6 specific territorial zones of the urban environment in which the great bulk of catering is concentrated.

The objective of this paper is to explain how the elements of a conceptual model based on KIBS (Knowledge Intensive Business Services) can be applied in an integrated way to assess the innovative capacity of firms in the service sector. The building of the model is based on a bibliometric analysis of the central theme KIBS, in the databases Scopus and ISI Web of Knowledge (Web of Science). We propose a conceptual model, which brings together several dimensions that have not yet been tested in economic sectors. These dimensions are: KIBS, knowledge creation, knowledge transfer, innovation and innovative capacity. The research presents interesting features from the scientific papers analyzed, highlighting gaps that gave origin to the proposed model.
