The head of “Izhmash”
Maxim Kuzyuk has joined “Izhmash”, when the company was suffering rather hard times. The entire Group at that time was uniting about one hundred different companies, part of them were in the process of bankruptcy and in the middle of liquidation procedures. The majority of the remaining 32 group companies had complicated multilevel management structures, repetitive functions, and extremely high overhead costs (7% were paid as salaries to the top managers only). The groups total liability in the beginning of 2011 was about 19 billion Rubles. The company was unable to pay salaries to its employees. Among other things, the problems included obsolete production facilities and the load level of modern equipment did not exceed 20%.
Being a head of one of the oldest defense enterprises in Russia, specializing in the production of various types of firearms (civil and military), M. V.

At the same time the new and reformed company must be organized in a way that would alleviate it from its former problems so the company could become not only efficient, but profitable as well.
In accordance with the approved reorganization plan, a new legal entity OJSC “Research, Development and Production Association “Izhmash” was created. This new entity became a 100% subsidiary of the parental State Corporation “Rostekhnologii”. In the first quarter of 2012 previous contracts, production facilities and the most qualified and skilled personnel were transferred to the new structure of the company. The goal is to complete the formation of the property complex by the end of 2012.
To perform these ambitious tasks, the enterprise began to take measures aimed at overcoming the crisis. As the general Director of the Scientific Production Complex (SPC) “Izhmash” Mr. Kuzyuk has determined the following activities as high priority:
