We engage in customer-centric engineering with a particular focus on helping growth-oriented companies identify their most important innovation and technology challenges, also supporting the successful launch of products in order to create and expand competitive advantage. Our fields of business range from strategy and management consulting to staff education and training, as well as involvement in national and international research projects.
Our specialty lies in product and process optimization with the aim of efficiently creating and delivering customer-specific solutions. To this end, we work alongside our customers on analysis, concept development, and implementation – regardless of the complexity of the challenge.
In the area of product optimization, our consulting services focus on the systematic development of innovations (systems engineering) and the planning of product portfolios based on variant management (modularization, standardization, tool kits, platform solutions).
In the area of process optimization, we focus on the core processes of product development and order processing, drawing on methods such as business process management and value stream design based on supporting IT enterprise solutions (value engineering).
Our work in corporate skilling and development includes customized staff training on project and change management, the coaching of project managers and development teams, and business mediation and facilitation.
In the area of transfer-based research, we are involved in fields such as digital transformation, the setting up and management of corporate networks, and the personalization of hybrid product and service offerings – always in connection with the specific assignments of participating companies.
Our approach to customer-centric, networked engineering involves linking the two main processes of the company – product development and order processing – revolving around the following topics:
PROJECT ENGINEERING: the efficient product engineering process (PEP)
VARIANT ENGINEERING: the customer-specific product/service portfolio
BUSINESS INNOVATION-ENGINEERING: customer-oriented, networked value creation
