In the name of grain XX century. In the name of grain The nationalization of the Nizhny Novgorod plant of the Dobrovykh and Nabgolts partnership took place in 1918. And a completely different story began ... Recently, the Soviet period has been modestly passed over in silence. Just like the Soviet chroniclers were silent about the pre-revolutionary successes of the plant, focusing the story on its revolutionary glory. If we move away from this principle of "denial of negation", then in the Soviet period one can see many significant achievements and discoveries that determined the fate of the enterprise today. Among them are management principles and decisions, which are regaining relevance at a new stage in the development of management and corporate culture of the company. The first "red director" In 1918, the management of the plant passed from the old administration into the hands of a specially created workers' collegium. The transition situation was quite dramatic. However, the work of the plant was not interrupted, and the "portfolio of orders" and the cash desk of the enterprise were not lost. This, probably, was a considerable merit of the young specialist of the plant Efim Mironovich Berkh and his financial literacy. In early February 1918, the factory committee, which consisted of Bolshevik workers, informed the administration about the establishment of workers' control at the enterprise. An alarming dispatch flew to Moscow, to the owners. In response, the Moscow shareholders referred to the lack of new orders and ordered the plant to close, stop production, and disband the workers. Berch, a non-party clerk, sympathized with the Bolsheviks. From 1916 he served in a volunteer factory in the humble position of an assistant accountant. It was Berch who helped the workers to understand the true financial situation of the company. The sabotage of the former owners failed. After conferring for several days, the shareholders left the office, demonstratively slamming the powerful oak doors. But such departure of the former managers did not produce the desired psychological effect, and, contrary to their expectations, did not paralyze the plant. The plant management was headed by a board of three employees with the rights and duties of plant directors, approved by the Economic Council. The clerk Berch became a member of this board, and in 1920 he became the head of the nationalized plant. The new director was then 27 years old. His managerial abilities were appreciated, and since 1921 E.M.Berkh continued his career in the Soviet banking and economic system, moving to work in Moscow. The first director died at the age of 95 with the status of a personal pensioner. A lot of responsibilities, sometimes the most difficult, fell on the new plant management. It was necessary to re-create the apparatus for receiving orders and marketing products, to find working capital. The demand for milling machines fell sharply due to poor harvests; the plant was cut off from the rich grain regions by the Civil War. The young republic most of all needed not sieves and wakes, but weapons. And the plant annually dressed 20 ships in armor for the Volga military flotilla. The new directorate, in extraordinary circumstances of devastation and food crisis, had to quickly rebuild production, get money and fuel. Considerable help in this was provided by the former turner of the plant, M.A.Vorobyov, who moved to work in the Nizhny Novgorod State Economic Council. This "professional revolutionary" has never broken ties with the company. Even during the life of Mikhail Alexandrovich, in 1926, on the initiative of the workers, the plant was named after M. Vorobyov. The tasks of the five-year plans In the years of the first five-year plans, the plant. M. Vorobyova works hard at building socialism. On the instructions of the country, the volume of production of mill and elevator equipment was doubled. The production of improved units was mastered, modern equipment was put into production, which previously had to be imported from abroad. Moreover, the products of the plant. Vorobyov has been entering the foreign market since 1935. Iran, followed by other countries, showed interest in Soviet equipment. This placed an additional responsibility on the plant for quality assurance. A new life was gradually improving, a new attitude to work was born, imbued with the enthusiasm for building a bright future. The Stakhanov movement took over the plant already in 1935, right after the news of the Donbass miner's record. A year later, all links of production had already joined the socialist competition. The desire for record labor productivity pushed for the optimization of many processes, including the organization of production lines. ... Once in the entire history of the plant, the production of profile products - mill and elevator machines was interrupted here. These were four years of the Great Patriotic War. The plant workers went to the front as volunteers, the plant itself was mobilized to work in the rear. The military feat was followed by labor. In the shortest possible time in the first post-war years, it was necessary to restore all technical documentation and rebuild production for the production of peaceful products. And then there was Celina. And the plant to them. M. Vorobyov began "creating the material and technical base of communism" - this was the task of the coming decades. From 1955 to 1963, the plant took part in a gigantic "battle for bread" that unfolded on the virgin lands of the Soviet Union. The experience of virgin lands and direct acquaintance with grain production "on the ground" turned out to be very important for the specialists of the plant. A thorough knowledge of the features of the operation of equipment in the most different climatic zones of the country was useful in further design developments. And even after the collapse of the Soviet Union, strong ties were maintained with partners from the former Soviet republics. Inventors, innovators The feat of labor of virgin lands gave the company also vast experience in the efficient organization of production and rational use of resources. Let us add that a complicating condition of this task in those years was imperfection of state planning and irregular supplies of consumables. The difficulties only spurred the team to develop the movement of innovators and inventors. All parts of the plant were involved in this creative process: foremen and machine operators made their proposals for improving technologies and designs, and engineers and technologists, putting on overalls, stood up to the machine to test their inventions and quickly begin their implementation in production. Employees are actively showing their initiative in the framework of NTO, OKB, VOIR, bureau of economic analysis. The maximum mechanization of manual work becomes one of the main goals of their invention. It is noteworthy that among the members of the NTO there were many workers with a high level of qualifications and deeply versed in modern technology. Education of the team The undoubted merit of the Soviet period is the professionally delivered work with the team. "Personnel is our most valuable asset" - this modern slogan expresses the true meaning of the personnel policy of the plant. M. Vorobyov. It is not for nothing that representatives of ten labor dynasties work at the plant today. In total, there have been more than a hundred of them since the beginning of the twentieth century! The work on educating personnel was facilitated then by the Museum of the revolutionary and labor glory of the plant, created on the initiative of the director in 1966, as well as by the shop wall newspapers and the large circulation "Machine Builder". Much effort has been invested in educational and cultural work. For the factory workers, meetings with interesting people and fascinating lectures were organized, which more than one Palace of Culture could envy. In the struggle for reconstruction Plant director P. E. Mokeev was the first to seek a decision from the ministry to reconstruct production. For 15 years, from 1958 to 1972. production output increased three and a half times, and its design capacity was significantly exceeded. By 1973, the plant had completely exhausted its resources. The entire load fell on the workshops built and equipped by the Joint Stock Company "Dobrovykh and Nabgolts". To fulfill the plan, I had to work in 3 shifts and spend the night at the factory. The fight against ministerial red tape for the reconstruction of production has developed sharply on the pages of the central press. On March 18, 1974, the newspaper Pravda published an article entitled "The Ministry and Reconstruction", in which scientists of the flour-grinding and elevator industry convincingly argued the need for urgent reforms. More than once, already in the 80s, the central newspaper returns to the sore point, equating the "unfinished" with the main construction projects of the country in terms of the scale of the problem. And it was only in line with the implementation of the Food Program that the reconstruction of the plant got off the ground. To the plant them. M. Vorobyov in this program was assigned a very important role, since the task was "to accelerate the technical re-equipment of the flour-grinding industry on the basis of its equipping with complete high-performance grinding equipment." The plans also included the construction of elevator capacities with a total capacity of 20 million tons. And the government, at last, "remembered" the need for reconstruction of the plant itself. Then the plant was headed by a new director - Vladimir Aleksandrovich Tkachenko. A builder by profession, he came to the post of director from the Plant of Reinforced Concrete Bridge Structures GAZ, and headed the plant. Vorobyov from 1978 to 1987 V. A. Tkachenko continued P. E. Mokeev's struggle for the reconstruction of the plant and achieved its implementation. … The enterprise is working hard to fulfill the production plans of the Food Program. At the same time, along the banks of the Oka, the walls of new spacious buildings rise, they are equipped with CNC lathes and modern pressing equipment. The new buildings of the plant were built by the hands of the workers themselves. Subbotniks made moving to comfortable and light workshops much closer. Together with the reconstruction, the working conditions at the enterprise are radically changing, and the productivity has increased accordingly. The result of this period is more than 5,000 units of new equipment, which are annually put into operation at mills, elevators and in grain farms of the country. If we evaluate this titanic work from the height of our time, then we can assume that it is its results that still ensure the food independence of entire cities and regions of our country. Almost all grain-baking factories, elevators and grain-receiving points of the USSR were equipped with the equipment of the plant named after V.I. M. Vorobyov. Commissioned back in the 60s and 80s, many facilities have not yet fully exhausted their resource. Their comprehensive modernization became the task of the next - market - period. The task for the plant under the name of OJSC "Melinvest". +7 (831) 277-66-11 About company Products Active objects Representative offices Contacts Videos and articles Preferential purchase of equipment Request a call Website development and promotion Burbon.ru
