Dobrynin design bureau in Voronezh and two Ufa plants an engine building (384th) and a diesel building (336th) were merged into a single whole. The enterprise was later renamed Ufa Engine Plant, and on its basis the Ufa Engine Production Association was established in 1978, which became UMPO in 1993 and PJSC UMPO in 2016. In September of 2017, within the frame of the corporate transformation project of the United Engine Corporation, PJSC UMPO was renamed PJSC ODK-UMPO.

The main activities are development, production, service maintenance and repair of turbojet aircraft engines and gas pumping units, production and repair of helicopter components. The association also produced civilian products. Starting with 1967, the enterprise was assembling motors for Moskvich-412 automobiles.
