Business Challenge

In 2005, Apptimized approached Infopulse with the need to set up an application packaging factory at our premises. The customer’s aim was to have a remote development center that could help reduce the cost per package and, thus, provide better pricing conditions to the end customers combined with high quality of service. Receiving access to big European customers, Apptimized managed to create a wide coverage of services in CEE and the UK.

Solution

A quick takeover of the initial knowledge (up to 4 knowledge transfer sessions) followed by setting up a team of 7 application packaging engineers. The value produced by the joint forces of both Aptimized (delivery management) and Infopulse (production) resulted in the possibility to offer competitive pricing conditions to European customers.

Territorially, the application packaging factory is located in Zhytomyr, the biggest regional office in Ukraine, which helps Infopulse maintain high-quality standards and manage sufficient profitability at the same time.

For Apptimized as a company, the move to Ukraine was a move to a completely new horizon. And to make it clear from the beginning: It definitely was a good one! After carefully evaluating the pro’s and con’s, we decided to start building the first team in cooperation with Infopulse in Ukraine and hired 7 trainees in September 2005. Since that time our team at Infopulse grew up to 50 packaging engineers. We believe that not only the strong technical skills but especially the attitude and the mindset of our employees in Ukraine have contributed to this success.
