adesso Austria and adesso Schweiz come together to form a strong partner in Swiss insurance provider Mobiliar’s major digitalisation initiative. The eight-strong team from adesso is involved in the digitalisation project and is developing a code to automate contract invoicing.

PostFinance, one of Switzerland’s leading financial institutions, is modernising its entire application landscape and also migrating capable applications to its own cloud. adesso Schweiz AG is assisting PostFinance with this major project as implementation partner.

Zurich is moving forward: as part of its ‘Digital City’ IT strategy, the city’s tax office is launching a digital tax portal together with consulting and IT service provider adesso. This tax cockpit (‘Steuercockpit’) is a key channel for increasing customer proximity and acceptance, especially among the younger section of the population.

Consulting and IT service provider adesso Schweiz AG is expanding its role in the banking sector, entering into a strategic partnership with Hypothekarbank Lenzburg AG. The two companies are joining forces to further develop and market open banking solutions on the Swiss market.

Consulting and IT service provider adesso and FinTech company CREALOGIX had previously worked closely together in Germany where they successfully completed multiple customer projects, including one involving a corporate client portal for the Landesbank Hessen-Thüringen (Helaba). The two firms made the decision to expand the scope of this fruitful partnership. They wish to team up on future transformation projects for financial service providers in Switzerland and Italy.

The consulting and IT service provider adesso will act as an official Google Cloud Partner in the future. As a Google Cloud partner, adesso can respond to the increased demand for cloud services in the market and use Google Cloud’s platform to develop and provide high-quality solutions for its enterprise customers.

There is a sense of euphoria at the start, and it is usually huge. Expectations reach unimaginable heights before an AI project begins, then disillusionment sets in as the weeks and months pass by. The end result is not the hoped-for revolutionary improvement to your own processes or brilliant new service idea, but a proof of concept (PoC). This evaluation shows what is possible and quickly reaches a state in which many AI initiatives remain forever: stuck in the PoC nightmare. The project fails as it moves from “this is possible” to “this is productive and earns money” – not because the developed AI solution does not work, but because those responsible have paid too little attention to some peculiarities and challenges typical of AI. In order to avoid the PoC nightmare, the IT service provider adesso believes companies should pay attention to these ten points:

QUANTO AG, which is majority owned by adesso, was joined in the past few weeks by about 100 SAP experts from the mother company and is now doing business under the name adesso orange AG as of 1 April 2021. The newest adesso SE subsidiary was formed to assist corporate customers with projects in the SAP segment.

adesso Schweiz AG once again reported record sales totalling CHF 72.5 million in the previous financial year 2020. This represents strong growth of 17 per cent compared to the previous year. The total number of employees increased to 370.

The year 2020 brought with it a new reality: Companies have to cope with the increasing pressure of digitalisation and adapt flexibly to unforeseen circumstances such as the Corona pandemic. More and more companies, regardless of their industry affiliation or size, are therefore dealing with the various aspects of digitalisation and now want to take the next step, particularly in the direction of more automated and therefore faster and more productive software development. This need is addressed by OutSystems, platform provider for modern application development, and the consulting and IT service provider adesso within the scope of their new partnership. The first common target market is Switzerland, with Germany and Austria to follow.
