The HOOD Group delivers services and solutions within Systems Engineering through our expertise in the implementation and use of Requirements Management & Engineering (RM&E) methods and processes along with related Systems Engineering disciplines. Our RM&E expertise is enhanced by the HOOD Centre of Competence for Change, Configuration and Version Management (CC&VM). According to our motto „Helping you to help yourself“, the HOOD Group supports customers and projects across Europe through consultancy, coaching, workshops and training courses.

The transfer of RM&E and CC&VM expertise forms the central part of our service. The HOOD Consultancy Division is supported by the HOOD Software Division, in order to implement customer specific solutions within the customer.s software-tool environment.

HOOD is active in a continuously growing number of significant companies from various industries, e.g. automotive, aviation and aerospace, medical-technology, and software development.
