Andrei Kobyakov: Major modernization work at Orsha district enterprises will unfold in 2018
Andrei Kobyakov visited key industrial enterprises of the Orsha district to assess the implementation of the head of state's instructions for their development. "It is impossible to say that the enterprises have surged forward yet, unfortunately. But it is important that they have determined their prospects and see them. In the vast majority of cases, investment projects already have well-developed sources of funding. The main scope of work related to modernization, the introduction of new technologies, and the acquisition of modern equipment will unfold in 2018 and will be partially completed in 2019. There are serious calculations regarding markets and sales channels," the Prime Minister emphasized.
The Head of Government noted that he was impressed by the enterprise managers. "It is evident that they know what needs to be done," Andrei Kobyakov noted. "Since spring, the personnel potential of the director corps has been significantly strengthened. Replacements have occurred, and I see that the managers deeply understand production, know the technologies, and see the prospects."
Giving an overall assessment of what he saw, Andrei Kobyakov added that "a foundation has been laid to make the Orsha district exemplary, which will be a benchmark for others." However, a great deal of work awaits everyone. "The problems existing at the enterprises are very deep. They cannot be solved in a day, a month, or even a year," he summarized.
