The relevance of a subject of a research is caused by the fact that since the beginning of spread of new COVID-19 coronavirus infection, the condition of world economy considerably changed. The International Monetary Fund stated that spread of new coronavirus infection of COVID-19 provoked the most large-scale crisis in world economy since the Great depression (https://www.interfax.ru/business/703400 ). The analysis of world practice of use of technology of outsourcing showed that outsourcing develops and transformed in connection with active development of modern technologies and the fast-changing situation in Russia and the world in general. In the present article results of the analysis of current state of enterprise structures are given in Russia taking into account the current situation caused by distribution by new coronavirus infection of COVID-19. The carried-out analysis allowed to estimate influence of spread of new coronavirus infection (COVID-2019) on enterprise structures. During the research the problem which enterprise structures at adaptation of the business to the current conditions faced was revealed. Businessmen found out that they have no sufficient level of skills and experience for personnel management of enterprise structures at a remote format of work that affects efficiency of activity of enterprise structures in general, and in a row a case leads to its general decrease. Insufficient level of readiness of enterprise structures for transition to a remote format is able to afford to compensate outsourcing use. The mechanism of optimization of activity for adaptation of enterprise structures to the current situation in Russia—transfer of separate non-core business processes on outsourcing is offered. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
