Laying the basis for additional growth

The IT consulting and software engineering company emineo can look back to another successful business year in 2017. Their position in the core markets of public administration, health, insurance and energy utilities was expanded.

Some particularly exciting and innovative projects are:
The successful introduction of case management for the Office of Supplemental Services for AHV/IV (ZLPro, city of Zurich).

The introduction of “asem Inkasso” for handling of operations at Helsana with electronic data exchange pursuant to eSchKG and electronic handling of loss certificates with the cantons according to the KVG.
Implementation of eUmzugCh in the cantons of Aargau, Uri, Zug and Zurich.
Total sales increased by 20% to 22 million, which represents a grand achievement under a 6% growth rate of the software market in Switzerland for year 2017 (source: Bitkom Research/Swico). Due to several delayed projects, and in particular due to an exciting project opportunity pipeline, emineo is also anticipating double-digit growth for business year 2018. Finally, by 31 December 2017, more than 85 specialists were on board.
‘The strategy of positioning emineo as an innovative Swiss IT consulting and software engineering company with maximum quality aspects and an innovative solution portfolio has proven to be promising and the right one. Owing to organizational optimizing, we have laid the foundation for additional healthy growth.’
Marcel Zimmermann, President of the Administrative Council, emineo.
Additional innovative thrust in the administrative council
In order to continue offering innovative solutions to customers, the administrative council brought additional reinforcements in 2018 to assist company founders Christoph Winkler, Werner Zecchino and Marcel Zimmermann (President).
By hiring Sunnie Groeneveld (Inspire 925 – see bio) and Stephanie Züllig (MindScale GmbH – see bio), emineo acquired two individuals with excellent connections and extensive experience in the digital marketplace. They are intended to help solidify the areas of organization, innovation and diversity. Likewise, they will be able to provide valuable assistance in matters of digitalization, range of services and recruiting of talent.
In Sunnie Groeneveld and Stephanie Züllig, emineo has obtained two young, yet highly experienced and digitally knowledgeable team members. ‘They are a fabulous addition to the administrative council and can provide outstanding support in sharpening our profile in the Swiss market.’
Marcel Zimmermann, President of the emineo
Administrative Council.
Powerful business leadership
On March 1, 2018 the administrative council has decided to improve our alignment toward customer requirements and market opportunities. The new organization is intended to cover the entire IT exploitation chain in the best possible manner, to strengthen account management and finally to increase emineo branding. Due to the positive contract situation, new employment opportunities can be created in the coming 12 months.
As CEO, Aleardo Chiabotti has assumed the position of chair of business management. He has a broad range of leadership experience from numerous digital and complex projects (vendor and also on the customer side), a sense of the feasible and years of customer experience in a highly dynamic environment.
Chiabotti’s successor as Head of Consulting will be Timo Schwab, who has been active in the company for 5 years. We were able to bring on board experienced industry experts for the newly created departments of Sales & Account Management (André Tecklenburg, formerly Mimacom) and Marketing & Communications (Patrick Meister, formerly of ELCA Informatik).
In the coming months, Aleardo Chiabotti will solidify the new organization, accelerate our professionalism and add additional vectors to our scope of services – as the first example, a Business Intelligence Team will be set up
‘I look forward to the continuing successful story of emineo and bringing it to the next level. I will make certain that our company values of “innovation,” “partnership” and “flexibility” will be retained together with our proven emineo quality’.
Aleardo Chiabotti, designated CEO, emineo.
The founders are concentrating on management of individual customers and on strategic questions in the field of innovation, growth and sector development.
