Digitization – IoT
Digital concepts such as customer experience and industry 4.0 are of great strategic importance, but require a lot of time and know-how to be implemented. This is not surprising, since digitization extends far beyond process optimization. We will support you in all your digitization projects with process automation, customer experience, and IoT.

IT Health Check
A health check at your family doctor ensures that illnesses are detected at an early stage. The IT health check does the same for your company. How is your company's information security? Are you prepared against cyberattacks? Is your IT delivering on the requirements of your business? How healthy is your IT architecture? After our IT health check, you will know.
Cloud Strategy
Digitization requires the appropriate cloud strategy, because cloud services are one of the basic conditions for digital transformation. When it comes to selecting the right offer, you as a company have plenty of choice. UMB will provide you with the decision-making basis for your cloud strategy.
Sourcing Strategy
Every sourcing strategy must take various integration scenarios into account and also be flexible.
