Master the challenges of digitalisation with us

Many manufacturing companies have huge amounts of data and need software solutions to improve the efficiency of their production processes. BDE Engineering can help you meet the demands of digitalisation and Industry 4.0. A Manufacturing Execution System (MES) is of central importance. It enables companies to position themselves for the future across the entire production process. We have been developing solutions for production data collection and visualisation for over 30 years, making us one of the pioneers of Industry 4.0. Worldwide system installations in all sectors of the manufacturing industry underline our forward-looking approach.
