CONTACT Software Schweiz AG can look back on an excellent business year and expects continued growth in 2018 and beyond. High investments in research and development are a matter of course for the globally oriented Swiss industry - and here more and more companies rely on the open CONTACT Elements platform.
"Our flexibly scalable offering for PLM and IoT has met with a great response in mechanical engineering, the electrical industry and other high-tech sectors," says Michael S. Murgai, Managing Director of CONTACT Software Schweiz AG. "The excellent references we have and our cooperation with HSR help in this respect."
The HSR University of Applied Sciences Rapperswil is in constant knowledge transfer with the industry. With research institutes such as the IPEK (Institute for Product Design, Development & Design), the VPE Symposium and other professional events, it is regarded as a top address for virtual product development. The HSR is a member of the CONTACT University program.
The key figures of CONTACT Software Schweiz AG speak for themselves, as Murgai emphasizes: "Order intake has grown on average of more than 40% annually since 2014, the customer base is expanding continuously and the number of employees has increased by a factor of three compared to the previous year.” Now the company has established an additional location in the pharmaceutical stronghold of Basel in order to inspire the Swiss medical technology industry with its branch solution CONTACT Medical.
