Digital Transformation

The technology and societal change Digital Transformation and the aspiration to not only achieve customer satisfaction, but customer success, are of such vital importance to our positioning in the market and our corporate future that we have aligned our organizational structure to reflect these topics.

• Digital Transformation

  It lets us rethink for ourselves, for example by enabling our software development processes to be DevOps-capable, or by allowing members of our team to live where they feel at home and work over the Internet with an employer where they feel at home.

  And it lets us rethink for our customers, for example by providing them with cloud-based ICT infrastructures or by accompanying them on the path to new frontiers such as model-based systems engineering, digital prototyping and simulation.

• Customer success

  Customer satisfaction is an important quality goal and highly motivating once achieved, which is why it is so important to us. However, what is even more important to us is that customer satisfaction is the result of our customers experiencing that our products and services measurably contribute to their success.

  That is why our collaboration with our customers is targeted at their entire system lifecycle and combined with our Digital Transformation business unit through two-way product management.

The following two guiding principles for our software products and our services complement this market-oriented understanding of our self-organization as a systems house:

• Tool Follows Process

  Our software products increase the user experience of general-purpose software tools in process-oriented day-to-day work of the automotive supply industry as well as the balanced capability of such tools to support the efficient and effective achievement of process goals.

• Process Follows Strategy

  Enable to be able is the motif which guides us to accompany process engineering not for the sake of rationalization and profit maximization, but to shape processes for sustainable management and in accordance with corporate responsibility for the society and the environment based on the opportunities provided by the markets, the technologies, and the sciences.

As a system house, we strengthen the development of embedded software and cyber-physical systems/components through the symbiosis of our two core competencies:

• Strengthening the development tools

  The artifact-based and bidirectionally traceable management of product data is one of the most critical success factors in product development in the age of big data. Thousands of OEM requirements, which are subject to constant change, must be broken down from the customer specifications through x component and architecture levels down to the individual software instruction, down to the individual electronic component and down to the individual mechanical tolerance - individually identifiable and verifiable per release and per sample.

• Strengthening the development process

  In times of turbulent consumer markets and creative expectations of how to realize the potential of digital transformation, approaches are needed which combine process and product quality with innovative expertise and flexible and cost-effective action competence. The engineers at cip alpha accompany, support and improve projects and processes in precisely this sense in companies open to the future, from start-ups to global corporations.
