Process manufacturing is the branch of manufacturing that is associated with
formulas and manufacturing recipes, and can be contrasted with discrete
manufacturing, which is concerned with bills of material and routing.
Discrete manufacturing varies from Process Manufacturing. In discrete
manufacturing, the manufacturing floor works off orders to build something.
Examples include toys, medical equipment, computers, cars. The resulting
products are easily identifiable. In process manufacturing, the products are
undifferentiated, for example oil, natural gas and salt. Discrete manufacturing is
often characterized by individual or separate unit production. Units can be
produced in low volume with very high complexity or high volumes of low
complexity. Low volume/high complexity production results in the need for an
extremely flexible manufacturing system that can improve quality and time-to-
market speed while cutting costs. High volume/low complexity production puts
high premiums on inventory controls, lead times and reducing or limiting materials
costs and waste.
Industries, we work with:
• Automobile production
• Aerospace
• Carriage building and rail
• Metal
• Manufacture of plastic products
• Shipbuilding

Company News
Russian Consulting and Engineering company Intenta Blew up the
Market of Manufacturing IT solutions based on the Results of 2012
Minsk (Belarus, CIS) – Nizhny Novgorod (Russia), January 5th
, 2013 - Russian
consulting and engineering company Intenta (within SITEK Group), an integrator
of Manufacturing IT software, announces an increased sales impact by 2.5 times
from 2011 to 2012 year. Marketing emphasis was on selling which was a real
breakthrough among IT companies that offer integration services and
manufacturing automation software products in Russia and Eastern Europe. This
testifies the receipt of the first position in the rating of «The most efficient Russian
and Eastern European integrators of Manufacturing IT» during the last two years.
Intenta is a part of SITEK Group of companies, an Engineering partner and
Competence Center of SIEMENS AG since the late 90's and SIEMENS MES-
systems` Competence Center in the CIS since 2008. Alexander Kosyanenko,
Director of Intenta and the Head of MES department in SITEK Group of
companies, noted that the financial indicators of the company showed growth and
would strive to reach 10 million Euro of annual turnover in 2014.
According to the recent market research of Manufacturing Execution System
(MES) Market – Global Forecast and Analysis (2011-2016): (Process and Discrete
Manufacturing Industries) - published by MarketandMarkets, the MES market was
estimated to be worth $4.7 billion in 2011 and to reach $8.9 billion by 2016 at a
CAGR of 13.6% from 2011 to 2016. In APAC, China and India are considered to
be the growth engines for the MES market. They are also carving a niche for
themselves across the globe. Major MES developers are Invensys (U.K.), iBASEt
(U.S.), Apriso (U.S.), Operator System (Denmark), Werum (Germany), SAP AG
(Germany), Oracle (U.S.), etc. System integrators also offer MES, either by
developing in-house or by procuring from MES developers. The major system
integrators are Siemens AG (Germany), ABB (Switzerland), Rockwell (U.S.), GE
Corporation (U.S.), Emerson Process Management (U.S.), Honeywell (U.S.),
Omron (Japan).
The MES market is changing its phase from introduction to growth. Though MES
was introduced in 1990, it took many years to launch it for commercial purposes.
The features such as the increasing awareness about the benefits of MES and other
Manufacturing IT, high productivity at reduced cost, and overall improvement in
the process capability of the manufacturing unit increased the acceptability of MES
6. 5
among the customers. MES market is expected to have a sustainable growth for
more than five years. Manufacturing units have shifted to China and India to get
the benefit of flower labor wages but these days labor cost in increasing, so there is
a huge need for a system to tackle this problem. Thus, the demand for the MES
system is very high in these countries to change the operations from manual to
system oriented.
A similar trend is observed in Russia and CIS countries. The following features
of the Russian and Central and Eastern Europe industries can be traced:
• Change in manufacturing mindset
• The need for transparency in the management of industrial processes
• Maintenance of high-volume production/ manufacturing
• Outburst in the computerization of industrial processes
• A new approach to the question of profitability
Alexander Kosyanenko, Director of Intenta, said: «If we see that a pool of
interesting engineering projects have already been created in certain areas of
Russia and the CIS and it certainly requires constant presence of our experts there
(and back office support) then we would certainly reflect on the opening of
representative offices. Now Perm (Russia) is the territory where we gained a
sufficient pool of projects as well as a number of regions in the Central Federal
District of Russia. Expansion of product line strongly depends on the needs of
customers. For example, with one of our main partners and vendors, SIEMENS
AG, we are negotiating about the possibility of inclusion of software in the field of
automation of Power engineering systems in our product portfolio».

About Khrunichev Research and Production Space Center (KRPSC or,
equivalently, KhSC)
was set up by Presidential Decree dated June 7, 1993, on the basis of the
Khrunichev Plant and the Salyut Design Bureau, the then largest enterprises in the
Russian space industry. The goal was to retain, to enhance and to develop further
the space industry’s S&T potential, to make the industry more efficient in the new
economical environment, and to enter the world space market.
In accordance with the space industry development strategy and subject to the
Federal Goal-oriented Program ‘Defense Industry Restructuring and Growth in
2002 – 2006’ approved by the Government of the Russian Federation’s Regulation
713 dated October 11, 2001 it was decided to create, on the basis of the KRPSC, a
major integrated business in the area of developing and manufacturing heavy-lift
launchers. This integration was primarily aimed at safeguarding the Khrunichev
Space Center’s existing manufacturing and S&T potential and to ensure fulfilling
all governmental orders set forth in the Federal Space Program.
On February 3, 2007 President Vladimir Putin signed Presidential Decree on the
Khrunichev Research and Production Space Center, a Federal State Unitary
Enterprise.
It took nine months for the Khrunichev Space Center to implement, under the
guidance of the Federal Space Agency and the Federal Agency for Managing the
Federal Assets, the Presidential Edict, which provided for the restructuring of the
then existing entity by the affiliation of four other federal state unitary enterprises.
General Director issued executive orders establishing the following KRPSC’s
affiliations:
− Polyot Production Corporation,
− Dlina Moscow Hardware Kitting Company, and
− Voronezh Mechanical Plant,
on December 29, 2007 and
− the Isayev Chemical Engineering Design Bureau
All above procedures complied with (a) Presidential Decree 127 on the Khrunichev
Research and Production Space Center, a Federal State Unitary Enterprise, dated
February 3, 2007, (b) Governmental Regulation 185-r dated February 19, 2007,
and (c) the duly registered Charter of the Khrunichev Research and Production
Space Center, a Federal State Unitary Enterprise.
