Ukrpol Publishing House launches the second stage of digital transformation together with IT-Enterprise
Ukrpol Publishing House, in cooperation with SK Industries, has launched the second stage of the company’s comprehensive digital transformation. The IT-Enterprise ERP platform serves as the foundation of the modern production management system.
Within the project, the company is fully replacing its existing IT solutions, conducting an audit, and transforming key business processes. The initiative covers operational automation, robotisation of production areas, integration of digital systems with manufacturing equipment, and the transition to electronic document management.
The project is expected to enable warehouse inventory optimisation of up to 25%, increase production capacity utilisation by up to 30%, and equip the management team with modern tools for further development.
“Ukrpol Publishing House is a company with a strong history, a powerful team, and significant achievements built by people who have developed this business over many years. SK Industries’ goal in this project is to strengthen the enterprise with effective tools and expertise to support further growth and unlock even greater potential. We selected the IT-Enterprise ERP platform as the foundation because we see their team as a reliable partner for implementing large-scale digital transformation projects, and we also see potential for its use across other manufacturing companies within our group and the wider market,” said Yurii Svirskyi, Founder and CEO of SK Industries.
“Our goal is to provide clients with modern Industry 4.0 technology solutions and build digital, transparent processes that help Ukrainian manufacturers become even more efficient. Our cooperation with SK Industries and Ukrpol Publishing House is a long-term partnership. We highly value the trust placed in our digital solutions,” said Oleh Shcherbatenko, Co-founder and CEO of IT-Enterprise.
According to the company, in 2021 Ukrpol processed more than 900 tonnes of cardboard per month for packaging food, pharmaceutical, household, and cosmetic products in Ukraine and Europe. Following the start of the full-scale invasion, production volumes declined to approximately 700 tonnes. The recovery of nearly 20% of lost volumes, along with further scaling, is being achieved through a comprehensive automation and digital transformation project.
A key outcome of the transformation is the creation of a unified management and analytics environment that provides leadership with full business transparency and enables a data-driven model for operational and strategic decision-making in real time.
The company states that the implemented digital transformation model creates a foundation for scaling modern approaches and adapting them to the specific needs of other industry players. The project is positioned as one of the first examples of a full-cycle digital transformation implementation for printing enterprises in Ukraine.
Ukrainian product IT company IT-Enterprise has been operating for more than 35 years and supports the digital transformation of the country’s largest real-sector companies. Its clients include Interpipe, Ferrexpo, Nibulon, Ukrposhta, Ukrnafta, Ukrzaliznytsia, and others. Since the first days of the full-scale war, the IT-Enterprise team, together with public authorities, has rapidly implemented projects critical for Ukraine, including humanitarian aid accounting, the restoration of procurement processes, and business relocation. Co-founder and CEO Oleh Shcherbatenko is a consistent advocate of Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0 approaches and technologies.
