Features of Russian industrial enterprises functioning, in the terms of instability of the 
external environment in crisis and post-crisis periods, reveal the necessity of correctly 
forecasting, changes in detailed system of company’s perspectives, development ways and aims, 
mechanisms of there realization.
According to a conservative variant of the General Plan of the railway system development 
the freight turnover growth provides up to 2.555 trillion ton-kilometers to 2020 (+ 16.3% in 
2013), in 2025 up to 2.795 trillion ton-km (+ 27.3% in 2013).
Shipment forecast amount in 2020 will be 1.44 million tons (+ 16.4%), in 2025 -1579 million 
tons (+ 27.7%).
The most freight capacity increasing trend predicts at Far East ports, in the North-Western 
and Southern regions of Russia. Mostly loaded by 2025 will be sectors of Trans-Siberian line, 
overload expects in the Baikal-Amur line.
As expect to 2025, the leaders in shipment will remains the railway transport: the West 
Siberian, Sverdlovski and South-Ural, October, Moscow. Mainly shipment growth expects at the 
Far East (almost 2 times), the Privoljski (1,5 times), the Sverdlovski and the Trans-Baikal railways.
In freight structure domestic traffic will prevail, at the same time faster growth of export and 
transit shipment traffics are prognosed.
Based on the freight shipments prognosed growth, attaining the state and economy needs 
in freight traffic, requires the development of industrial infrastructure, implantation of 
innovations, obtaining high-quality and safe products and services, increasing the efficiency of 
wagon building companies in generally.
2. Methods
The research results obtained by using methods of system and logical analysis, consolidation 
of management approaches and solutions, methods of scientific classification, comparison 
and generalization of objects, factorial approach, economic and mathematical methods for the 
analysis of research issues.
Economic preconditions of wagon building industry development in the period of railroad 
reform were considered.
The main target of wagon building companies’ activity is a product’s quality parameter. 
Currently applies the next quality indicators system of wagon manufacturing and repair:
–  an indicator of failure-free operation – a numerical parameter, that indicates the proportion 
of products that had no failures for a given operating time or lifetime limit, expressed as a 
percentage (the main indicator);
–  the failure line parameter – the relative parameter, that characterizes in the period 
under consideration the ratio of products failure to the total number of products (secondary 
indicator);
–  the MTBF (mean time between failures) – parameter, characterizing the ratio of the total 
operating time of products to the number of failures during this operating time, in kilometers 
(secondary indicator).
The accidents rate in the wagon fleet remains high. The general are poorly carried current 
repair, errors in the preparation of the rolling stock to the current repair, alloy parts breaking in 
guarantee period.
Since 2011, the total number of failures in wagon fleet increases. During the period from 
2011 to 2014 the average number of violations increased by 22.8%.
Increasing quality of wagon building enterprises products directly related with implantation 
of innovations, improvement in technological manufacture processes and structure’s features 
of the product, that creates an aim not only for companies in the industry, but generally for all 
rail transport sphere, as a strategic purpose of the Transport Strategy of the country.

CONTEMPORARY PROBLEMS OF SOCIAL WORK
The development strategy of the rolling stock manufacturers currently focused on 
implementation of innovative technologies to production processes and releasing of innovative 
products and services. Companies’ sale profits are used for technical re-equipment of production 
facilities, to administrative management system modernization, to improve products quality, 
expanding products line also including innovation activity.
Updates in manufacturers’ strategic programs of past few years are detailed below.
In May 2013, the “Strategy of development of the integrated structure of JSC “Uralvagonzavod”” 
for the period till 2020 was approved, according to which the main strategic objectives are:
  – attain a necessity level of clear profit,
  – increase a part of research and development costs,
  – increase a part of innovative products sales in total sales,
  – increase the rate of production profitability.
Next actions are scheduled in the program of activities: optimizing the organizational 
and legal structure of the corporation, establishment a management company, integration 
of effective corporate management system, internal control, risk management, access to new 
markets.
In 2015 was developed and approved the structure of a united treasury in JSC “Uralvagonzavod”, 
its subsidiaries and affiliates, that implies management centralization of the company’s financial 
flows, minimizes the financial risks and operational costs, as well as maximize the profit from 
investment actions with available financial resources. A function of the system includes:
–  the system of banking partnership, providing optimization of the structure of bank accounts,
–  the operational planning and financial flows optimization, including the financial support 
planning complex and internal resource planning developing, the available funds invests,
–  controlling, as well as realize control of moving fund’s budget and used limits, control of 
payments correctness and timeliness of receipts, actual monitoring and control of receivables 
and payables accounts,
–  the financial risks management,
–  the construction and development of information infrastructure.
The financial transactions optimization and centralization will increase the efficiency of 
financial flows management, that makes a positive impact for primary activity of the company 
in case of high-integrated enterprise structure.
In general, the company’s development strategy is aims to release the production output 
capacity using in full, increased the production output and manufacturing of innovative 
products to ensure a dominant position on the market.
JSC “UWC” – is a company, recently created on the basis of the Tikhvinski wagon building plant, 
currently ranks a place among the major market participants. The company’s main strategic aim 
is to increase its place on market, o maximize the economic benefits from innovation products 
manufacturing.
In addition to innovative rolling stock production, the company engaged to the system 
of service centers creation. One of the “UWC” main selling directions is providing wagons for 
leases operations, carried by a group of leasing companies Rail1520. Now Rail1520 Company 
ranks second among the companies, specialized on rolling stock leasing activities.
Established in 2014, the operating company Vostok1520 provided transportation services, 
based on using rolling stock, granted by “UWC”. During 2014 the operator shipped 2.5 million 
tons of cargo; wagon productivity per a day was 10.58 thousand. ton-km., that is almost 2 times 
higher, than the average index on market (5.2 thousand ton-km. per day).
The “UWC” has an independent division of risk management, which included to the Financial 
Department and subordinated directly to the head of the company. The rolling stock production 
risks of the company are divided into next groups:
–  the credit risk,
