Bringing IT projects safely to the finish.

They run the project operationally: settle the scope, coordinate service providers and departments, keep budget and deadlines under control, manage risks and stay accountable until the result is live in the business. Unlike a consultancy that hands over recommendations and leaves.

We do, as external project leadership for a period. There are three usual routes: project-based for a defined initiative, interim to bridge a vacancy, or fractional IT leadership for companies that need steering permanently but not a full position. We can usually start two to four weeks after the first conversation.

Yes — provided the role is clear and the contribution to the overall outcome can be cleanly defined.

Both. We think strategically and work operationally enough to actually move projects forward.

Yes. Change management is a central piece, not an optional add-on.

IT, process and transformation projects with relevant interfaces to management, business units and external delivery partners.

We bill in three models: project-based for a clearly bounded initiative, interim for a fixed period, or as fractional IT leadership. We deliberately do not quote a flat day rate, because it says nothing without knowledge of the initiative. There is a defined fixed price for the Digital Check as an entry point: 3,950 EUR for the assessment that surfaces the actual steering need.

Four steps. First, analysis and mandate with goal definition and clear responsibilities. Second, planning with milestones and risk assessment. Third, operational delivery including steering of the involved service providers and reporting to management. Fourth, go-live and handover, so the result holds up in daily work.

We sell no licences and no hardware, and we earn nothing on the solution that ends up being introduced. That lets us steer providers vendor-independently and advise against a purchase even when one looks obvious. A systems house is the right partner for operations and technology; we are the right partner for the steering above it.

When the need is time-limited, when the role cannot currently be filled, or when an initiative is coming up for which the in-house experience is missing. Where steering is needed permanently over several years, a permanent hire is cheaper, and we say so.

Usually within two to four weeks of the first conversation. For a project already in trouble it is faster, because the first step is an assessment rather than the full mandate definition.

Yes, and it is one of the most common reasons we get called. We act on the client side, check delivery status against the contracts and run the coordination between multiple parties. Existing contracts remain untouched.

First a sober assessment of scope, dates, budget and open decisions, usually within two weeks. From that comes a proposal on what to rescue, what to re-cut and what to stop. That recommendation can also be to end the initiative.

The consulting share can be. For the Digital Check as an entry point, BAFA funding reduces your own contribution to 2,200 EUR in the western and 1,150 EUR in the eastern German states. Ongoing operational project management is generally not covered by consulting funding. The application must be filed before work starts and requires an ELSTER business account.
