Modernizing software
Turning the old into the future. Old software means security risks, performance problems and high maintenance costs. We modernize your existing systems, migrate applications to the cloud and make them fit for current standards. In doing so, we focus on conserving resources and green IT principles so as not to build everything from scratch, but to intelligently develop what already exists.
- Modernization of legacy applications
- Interface development and system integration
- Cloud migration and hybrid infrastructures
- Increasing efficiency and green IT
- Specialization in COBOL migration
Digital transformation & process optimization

Our experience from projects with operators of critical infrastructures makes us a reliable partner for sensitive systems.
- Long-term software lifecycles
- Standards-compliant development (IEC 62443, NIS2, CRA)
- Industry expertise in energy, transportation, automotive
- Security by design and compliance consulting
Cloud transformation
Your software secure and scalable in the cloud. The cloud is more than just a storage location: it enables flexible workflows, cost transparency and rapid scalability.We support you from the cloud readiness analysis to the implementation of hybrid systems, including security-by-design strategies and compliance requirements.
- Cloud readiness checks and migration strategies
- Hybrid cloud models and secure architectures
- Performance optimization and green IT approaches
- Integration into existing software landscapes

Durability:
We develop software with a life cycle of ten years or more.
Security right from the start:
Security by design and experience from regulated markets are integral components.
Seamless integration:
We build solutions that fit into your infrastructure, processes and security architecture.
Industry expertise:
Production, logistics, automotive, energy and rail are among our core areas.
Central contact person:
A project manager ensures clear communication and short paths.
Faster results:
Less coordination means shorter project lead times.
Long-term support:
