Company

Our mission

Delivering high quality products at an attractive price point just at the right time is the holy grail of product development. Our mission is to help our customers to achieve this goal through holistic variant management and product line engineering. With our products and services, we enable companies to free up their creative engineering potential by reducing the effort spent on the maintenance of existing products. By automating what can be automated, by helping to avoid unnecessary complexity and by making the remaining complexity as easy to manage as possible, we enable our customers and partners to operate more efficiently.

For us, sustainability is not just a buzz word, but a core value of your company. Our solutions allow our customers to create more sustainable products, which last longer and provide better service throughout their life. We are proud that - in partnership with our customers - we are contributing to reduce our footprint on this planet. 

This has been our mission for more than 20 years, and it will continue to be at the heart of everything we do. 

We believe in cooperation rather than competition and have a great Partner eco-system.
