CONTACT Software partners with TrAxxion to support Benelux manufacturers
The partnership offers companies in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg end-to-end digital solutions that streamline processes and enhance shop floor efficiency. CONTACT and TrAxxion have already worked together closely in previous projects.
The Benelux region is one of Europe’s industrial powerhouses and boasts a strong innovation culture. To remain on top in the global market, however, manufacturers must streamline processes and improve operational transparency. CONTACT Software now partners with Luxembourg-based consultancy TrAxxion to deliver digital solutions to companies in the region faster. The partnership combines the leading PLM, IIoT, and MES platform CONTACT Elements with TrAxxion’s implementation experience and deep understanding of the Benelux manufacturing industry.
CONTACT Elements merges data silos into an integrated data and process backbone, accelerates workflows and fosters enterprise-wide collaboration. Manufacturers benefit from real-time shop floor KPIs, automated reporting, and efficient production scheduling. The platform supports cloud deployment and provides AI capabilities to optimize processes from product development to manufacturing and service. Its modular architecture allows for gradual expansion, making it a future-proof solution that can be adapted to changing market requirements.
As a strategic distribution and implementation partner, TrAxxion supports customers in the Benelux region throughout their entire transformation journey: from needs analysis and consulting to the development of a digital roadmap, system deployment, configuration, and the integration of CONTACT Elements into existing digital ecosystems. Their experts ensure lasting success through training, change management, and ongoing optimization and advisory services.
“Through multiple joint projects in the past years, a strong relationship of trust has grown between our teams. This convinced us not only of the people behind CONTACT, but also of the strength of their platform”, said François Styga, Partner at TrAxxion. “We are convinced that this partnership brings world-class digital transformation to Benelux SMEs – in a pragmatic way, with a clear focus on benefit realization rather than technology for technology’s sake.”
“The Benelux region is a key innovation hub for industries such as semiconductors and advanced mobility, making it a strategically important market for industrial digitalization”, said Dimitri Baumtrok, Head of International Business at CONTACT Software. “With TrAxxion, we have a trusted advisor by our side who understands both the strategic and operational realities of manufacturing transformation. Together, we help companies move from isolated digital initiatives to connected, data-driven processes from top floor to shop floor based on CONTACT Elements.”
