Suitable for your requirements

Digital solutions that work – flexible, scalable, future-proof

Whether custom development, module-based development, prodot products/standard solutions, or low-code/no-code: We focus on the right approach at the right time. Always with the goal of developing the best possible digital solution for your company.

Always the right approach

Low-code/no-code or custom development?

The truth is: It depends. Not every challenge requires customized software, but not every solution works with a modular approach either. Together, we analyze requirements, framework conditions, and goals. We recommend the appropriate approach:

Individual development makes sense when...

  • complex business logic or proprietary algorithms are required
  • high integration requirements exist
    (e.g., ERP, legacy systems, APIs)
  • maximum UX/UI flexibility is required
    Scalability, security, or long-term maintainability are the focus

Module-based development often works well when...

  • project requirements can largely be covered by standardized
    modules
  • partial customization is required
  • existing IT landscapes and architectures are to be gradually modernized

Low-code/no-code is particularly suitable when...

  • simple processes exist that need to be digitized in the short term
  • rapid prototypes are required
  • interim solutions are desired
  • internal teams wish to be involved (citizen developers)
  • initial budgets are limited

Standard solutions are used when...

  • the standard solution comprehensively covers user requirements.
  • an existing solution can be optimized through optional extensions.
  • routine updates are required.

Our methodology

Every digitalization project goes through various phases in its development cycle. The crucial questions must be asked for each phase. With over 20 years of experience, we know that project success depends on making the right decisions and implementing the appropriate measures in every phase.

That's why we've developed our own 6-phase model, which provides structured and effective project support – from the initial idea to successful implementation and sustainable use.

Our approach is holistic, but never off-the-shelf: We view each project from a 360° perspective, combining proven methods with data-driven foundations, measurable successes, and a focus on the customer experience. We don't follow a rigid template; instead, we develop a customized roadmap that fits your situation – regardless of your current phase.

Vision

Discover new ideas for your digitalization project. What do you want to achieve? What risks are you willing to take? What about your competitors?

Let's examine the technical and economic feasibility of your ideas together. Together, we'll develop a concrete concept that's accepted by all stakeholders and can be translated into a scalable and sustainable solution.

Design

The design of the technical architecture, the user experience, and the user interface are key success factors for your digitalization project. Throughout the entire development process, you'll make many pivotal decisions. Our goal is to work with you to choose the right options.

Let us develop the solution that creates real added value for you and your target audience. Watch your project take shape step by step.

Experience

Testing, learning, and optimization are the basic prerequisites for the highest quality, high user-friendliness, and optimal goal achievement.

To help you make the right decisions, you should experience your new software as quickly as possible, verify business-critical requirements, and receive essential feedback from your target audiences. We offer the design of click dummies, prototypes, and proof of concepts.

Deliver

Based on your vision, design, and initial experience, we develop an efficient and effective digital solution for you. Our interdisciplinary teams implement your project in a targeted and valuable manner right up to productive use.

We support you with future-proof architectures and a tailored integration into your existing IT system landscape. We rely on meaningful iterations to respond agilely to feedback and changes.

Validate

After the release is before the release: To make the right, fact-based decisions for the next version, it is essential to gather feedback from users. We achieve this through continuous user testing, surveys, and the analysis of production data.

In addition, continuous adjustments are essential, resulting from the insights gained from the ongoing validation of security, compliance, and governance policies. This keeps your solution up to date.

Grow

Even after the successful implementation of a project, digital transformation doesn't stop. Internal or external influences—such as new legal requirements, market changes, or technological developments—may necessitate adjustments.

To ensure your company remains future-proof, it is crucial to establish the right processes and structures early on to respond quickly to changes.

No matter how diverse your next steps are—we support you in shaping your digital future.
