KNRTU announced the winners of the qualifying stage of the "CASE-IN" championship

KNRTU hosted the qualifying stage of the Student League of the XII International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN" with the support of the presidential platform "Russia – the land of Opportunities". Future petrochemical industry specialists, builders and design engineers competed for tickets to the next stage of the championship.

"The new season of the championship is dedicated to the theme of Lean Manufacturing," the founder of the championship, co-chairman of the CASE-IN organizing committee, addressed the participants online in a welcoming speech Artem Korolev. "Today, this is one of the most urgent areas of economic development - improving efficiency, increasing labor productivity, eliminating losses, and implementing optimal solutions."

According to the Vice-rector for Academic Affairs of KNRTU, Professor Dilbar Sultanova It is doubly gratifying that this year "lean manufacturing" is mainstream in the "CASE-IN".

"KNRTU is the main vehicle for the introduction of lean manufacturing in universities in the Republic of Tatarstan," Dilbar Shamilevna noted. – We have successfully operated two laboratories – Lean Office and Production Stream. We also work closely with the regional center of competence in the field of lean manufacturing. Therefore, our task is to develop these skills in all graduates so that they can become leaders of changes in their fields."

On behalf of SIBUR, the participants in the Petrochemistry business have developed measures to improve the efficiency of the petrochemical company's business processes. The students' solutions are based on the tools of "lean manufacturing" - both well-known Lean technologies and new solutions proposed independently.

In the direction of "Project Engineering", projects of an Engineering Center for the creation of a polyolefin production facility were presented on behalf of JSC NIPIGAZ.

"The shortage of personnel in Russia today raises the question of modernizing production," said the head of the SIBUR training group Julia Kondrakova. – Lean manufacturing helps to make the company's work more efficient and economically profitable. That is why it is important for young professionals to participate in such competitions. I wish today's participants to believe in luck, show themselves and achieve their goals."
