Klepinin Pavel Sergeyevich

Biography

Born in Moscow. In 1997 he entered and in 2003 graduated with honors from the Faculty of Economics of Moscow State University. Lomonosov with the degree of Master of Economics.

2001-2007: Frontstep CIS

From 2001 to 2007 he worked at the consulting company Frontstep CIS CJSC "" (representative office Infor in the CIS), where he went from a junior consultant to deputy director for consulting. Completed more than 10 projects on integrated implementation ERP of systems, including integration with class systems,,, etc PDM HRM CRM. In 2006, as a manager, he successfully implemented an internal project to develop a methodology for conducting consulting projects. This methodology formed the basis for monitoring the work of project managers and significantly improved the quality of work and reduced the timing/budgets of projects.

In 2006, he received a PMP (professional in project management) certificate.

The value of this certificate is also that it is relatively well recognized on the market, the "crust" is not useless, - said Klepinin.

Since 2007 - certified by CPIM (expert in the field of production and logistics management). Plus many separate courses in management, psychology and other disciplines, including ITIL-ITSM.

I believe that the CPIM certificate is a much more valuable training and certification program that affects the principles underlying the functioning of business applications. Chic course for managers, business consultants and implementers.

2008: Chief information officer

In February 2008, he joined Avtodiesel, (part of the GAZ group) as director of information technology, in 2011 he was appointed director of the Power Units division, which includes 3 enterprises and 2 trading houses.

The modernization of the IT economy began with the development and protection of a strategy based on the optimization of business processes (through the independent implementation of ITIL-ITSM). The result of this work is a decrease in the number of IT personnel by 52%, to 48 people, while increasing labor productivity, increasing transparency and quality of services. Along the way, significant work was carried out to update the IT infrastructure, business applications and the implementation of teamwork tools.

The construction of the new plant was YaMZ-530 very interesting. It was greenfield, the entire IT infrastructure was built here, support for IT services and business applications was launched, business systems of the PDM, MES, ERP class were successfully implemented, etc. It is a pity that it was not possible to launch the Infor ERP Ln implementation project, and politics also prevented the crisis. Or there could be a better introduction of Baan in the post-Soviet space. But it was possible to very vigorously implement PDM in 100 days, - Klepinin recalled later.

The management of the anti-crisis project to reduce the cost of products produced by the plant (diesel engines) stands out, as a result of which the direct production cost was reduced by 14%, and the plant emerged from the 2008 crisis as an effective and competitive enterprise.

2013: Work at Sibur

In the petrochemical holding "Sibur" Pavel Klepinin worked as the head of the regional direction, responsible for the development and implementation of the IT strategy at more than 30 enterprises of the holding.

Of my large projects, I note the leadership of the IT team on SAP implementation projects, EMC Documentum, MES, participation in data center construction projects, MSAIDs, etc. One of the projects at SIBUR is an audit of the maturity of IT processes at the holding enterprises according to the CobIT methodology. 12 enterprises conducted a full audit of the selected processes, the current "maturity web" was built, then the target state was determined and measures were developed (roadmap).

Subsequently, he was appointed Director of Information Technology of the Sibur Group. Klepinin worked in this position until mid-2016.

After that, he continued his career in a similar position in Sibur's subsidiary, NIPIGAZreprocessing, which is building a gas processing plant for Gazprom in the Amur Region. A source close to Sibur told TAdviser in August 2016 that instead of Pavel Klepinin, Andrey Burlutsky, general director of Sibur's IT-Service subsidiary, should be appointed IT Chief information officer, which later happened.

2019: Director of Tsifrum

As it became known to TAdviser in December 2019, Pavel Klepinin was appointed director of Tsifrum, a member of Rosatom State Corporation.

Tsifrum was created in April 2019 in the form of a private institution. Rosatom calls it a reference company and one of the key resources of the digitalization unit, focused on the implementation of a single digital strategy of the state corporation. The strategy includes several priority areas:

• digitalization of the main internal processes and functions of the corporation;
• development and launch of Rosatom digital products on the market, for example, the Logos software package for engineering calculations.
• participation of the state corporation in the development of the digital economy, in particular - the creation of innovation centers for end-to-end technologies.

An important element of a single digital strategy is cooperation with other large companies and corporations working on the development and implementation of digital technologies, educational institutions, IT market companies, etc.

In the contour of more than 300 enterprises, the huge volume of projects and "digital" initiatives on the ground, and without clear coordination, prioritization and organizational changes, it is extremely difficult to go together to a single goal. Tsifrum aggregates, in particular, expertise in managing product development, projects, marketing of digital products, - explained the representative of Rosatom TAdviser.

Tsifrum operates under the control of the Rosatom digitalization unit headed by Ekaterina Solntseva and the digital transformation department of the state corporation, which reports to it and is headed by Marina Avilova. These two units control the implementation of Rosatom's unified digital strategy.

The company explained that the digitalization block is a collection of resources of the director for digitalization. These resources include the transformation department, Tsifrum, RuSat - Digital Solutions, DIT.

Rosatom told TAdviser that "RuSats are digital solutions," in particular, is more focused on the development of sales markets and promotion for Rosatom's digital products. Also in the state corporation there is a company "Greenatom." This is essentially a "strong and powerful" operational "contractor" of the state corporation for various important functions - from IT to HR. But they actively interact and work together to implement a unified digital strategy, the representative of the state corporation added in a conversation with TAdviser.

Pavel Klepinin, as the head, was tasked with ensuring the effective management of Tsifrum to achieve maximum efficiency in implementing digitalization programs within the framework of Rosatom's unified digital strategy, the company told TAdviser.

Sergei Popov, who was previously the director of Tsifrum, now leads the most important area for the development of digital twins in this company, the state corporation added.
