Case
Company Background
EcoTech Solutions is a medium-sized enterprise (currently 180 employees) based in St.
Petersburg, Russia. Founded in 2018, it designs and manufactures energy-efficient heating
systems for residential and commercial buildings. The company started as a small partnership
but recently re-registered as a LLC.
Current Situation
EcoTech has experienced rapid growth due to increased demand for green technologies and
government subsidies for energy-efficient renovations. However, this growth has exposed several
organizational and operational challenges:
1. Organizational structure:
The company still operates with an informal, flat structure where the three founders make all
major decisions. Department heads (Production, R&D, Sales, HR) report directly to the founders.
Employees complain about unclear responsibilities and slow decision-making as the company
grows.
2. Personnel issues:
- High turnover among production line workers (α-labour);
- Lack of career progression paths;
- No formal performance evaluation system;
- Difficulty attracting qualified engineers (β-labour).
3. Production and assets:
- The main production facility uses aging equipment (average age 8 years);
- Frequent breakdowns cause delays;
- No systematic approach to equipment maintenance or replacement;
- The company needs to decide whether to invest in new automated production lines.
4. Market position:
- Strong in the Northwest region but facing new competitors from European firms;
- Considering expansion to Kazakhstan and Belarus;
- Uncertain how to structure international operations.
5. Financial constraints:
- Charter capital is 500,000 RUB;
- Considering a bank loan for equipment upgrades;
- Need to improve financial planning and resource allocation.
-
