The study is based on an analysis of the role of digital transformation in ensuring energy security, as well as the current architecture of sectoral information systems. It was established that existing digital platforms in the energy sector are primarily focused on automating production and administrative processes, while comprehensive mobilization readiness assessment functions remain insufficiently developed.</p> <p>The study analyzes the activities of the Situational and Analytical Center of the Fuel and Energy Complex of the Republic Kazakhstan, as well as the digital infrastructure of key companies such as NC KazMunayGas JSC, NC QazaqGaz JSC, KEGOC JSC, and Samruk Energy JSC. In addition, international best practices in digitalization of energy security (IEA, UNECE) are reviewed. The empirical results based on a survey indicate a medium level of digitalization and managerial efficiency in the sector.</p> <p>As a result, a three-tier integrated digital platform for real-time monitoring of mobilization readiness is proposed. The model is based on Big Data, artificial intelligence, and predictive analytics. The study substantiates the need for a unified digital monitoring system and enhanced interagency data integration to enhance energy security.</p>energy securitymobilization readinessdigitalizationmonitoring systemdata-driven managementBig Dataartificial intelligencesituational centerenergy infrastructurecrisis managementэнергетикалық қауіпсіздікжұмылдыру дайындығыцифрландырумониторинг жүйесідеректерге негізделген басқаруBig Dataжасанды интеллектахуалдық орталықэнергетикалық инфрақұрылымдағдарыстық басқаруэнергетическая безопасностьмобилизационная готовностьцифровизациясистема мониторингауправление на основе данныхBig Dataискусственный интеллектситуационный центрэнергетическая инфраструктуракризисное управление1.sactek.kz [Internet].
