Annotation: The paper considers the aspects and parameters that make up the content of the technical level of interoperability, analyzes studies related to the issues of information systems technical interoperability in terms of defining and substantiating the systems readiness parameters to interact with each other. The analysis revealed insufficient development of the scientific and methodological apparatus when assessing the systems readiness level for interaction with each other at the current stage of research. The paper shows that the systems readiness level for interaction depends on a set of objects and systems readiness parameters to interact with each other. It was revealed that such parameters include both internal parameters characterizing the objects and subsystems readiness levels within a specific system, and external parameters determining the readiness of two (or more) systems to interact. For each of the parameters under consideration, levels of this readiness are introduced and described - from level 0 ("unprepared") to level 4 ("adaptive"). The paper proposes a methodology for assessing the systems readiness level to interact with each other, taking into account the internal and external objects and systems readiness parameters to interact. The systems readiness level for interaction with each other was assessed using the example of two information systems - the Bonch.RID system (developed by The Bonch-Bruevich St Petersburg State University of Telecommunications) and the service of the Federal Institute of Industrial Property (FIPS) "Filing an application for an invention, utility model, trademark". A conclusion was made about the readiness of these information systems for interaction. Directions for further research are proposed for the purpose of applying the obtained and developing new elements of the scientific and methodological apparatus that ensure an increase in the quality of interoperability at the technical level during the interaction of various subsystems of information systems and their components at the semantic and organizational levels. It seems relevant to use the elements of the proposed methodology when assessing the technical interoperability level by other parameters, including the parameters of compatibility of network protocols, interfaces and quality of service requirements.
