The State Banks’ Favorite IT Contractor: Despite AMCU Sanctions, S&T Ukraine Retained State Contracts Worth Millions
18 June 19:02
State-owned banks have invested more than 1.3 billion hryvnia in the purchase of IT equipment and technology solutions from the state-owned enterprise “ES END TI Ukraine” (S&T Ukraine). In total, since its inception, the company has signed contracts with government clients worth more than 4.3 billion hryvnias, becoming one of the largest IT contractors in the public sector. At the same time, in 2025, the company was subject to a decision by the Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine (AMCU) regarding anti-competitive concerted actions during tenders and is currently in the process of being dissolved. This was reported by "Komersant Ukrainian", citing data from public registries.
According to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, in 2025 the company’s founders decided to dissolve the legal entity through reorganization. Yuriy Lysetskyi has been appointed head of the liquidation commission.
Who is behind S&T Ukraine?
ES & TI Ukraine has been operating in the Ukrainian market since 1996. The company specialized in building corporate information systems, telecommunications infrastructure, network solutions, data storage systems, cybersecurity, and the supply of computer equipment.
Despite its extensive cooperation with government agencies, the company is not state-owned. Systems & Technologies LLC holds 100% of the corporate rights, and Yuriy Lisetskyi and Olga Degtyarchuk are listed as the ultimate beneficial owners in state registries .
