At Bitkom TRANSFORM, Hanspeter Tiede, CEO of the Lother Group, together with Anne Bernemann and Thomas Brugger from mgm consulting partners, talked about real transformation in medium-sized companies – without empty phrases and with a lot of practical relevance.

The digital transformation offers opportunities for efficiency, innovation and competitiveness, but also entails risks without strong IT security. Cyber attacks and data leaks jeopardise sensitive data and the trust of customers. This article shows why information security is essential, which risks are often overlooked and which solutions can help.

In the podcast, Dirk Wullenweber, Director Marketing & Future Fuels, reports on how the transformation of the company was implemented in the shortest possible time and led to success through various projects, what part the support of mgm consulting partners played in this, and tells the exciting story, like a crime thriller, of how BMW became the 2024 Superbike World Champion with the future fuels from Lother.

The Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) officially came into force on 17 January 2025. The regulation requires financial firms to meet comprehensive digital resilience requirements. We offer our DORA Readiness Check Tool solution to help companies identify and address outstanding requirements in a targeted manner. This helps to systematically uncover remaining gaps in implementation and display them in a clear dashboard.

The energy transition poses immense challenges for municipalities, municipal utilities and energy suppliers. In particular, municipal heating planning plays a central role. In the latest episode of our podcast Innovation Implemented, Markus Czeslik from mgm consulting partners and Christian Schmidt from Enerlabs explain how their partnership of consulting and software solutions supports municipalities in developing municipal heating planning in an efficient and strategically sound manner.

From 11 to 13 February 2025, the energy industry will meet at E-world energy & water in Essen. mgm consulting partners will also be there and together with our partner Enerlabs, a provider of an innovative software suite for municipal heat planning, we look forward to discussing the challenges and opportunities of the energy transition with you.

Antje von Garrel, AI expert and manager at mgm consulting partners, and Jan Jikeli, Head of AI at mgm group, discuss what is really needed for AI to deliver strategic and operational success. Organisations must no longer view AI as a mere technology or tool, but as an integral part of their strategy, processes, infrastructure and culture.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly important in everyday life. Companies and public administrations will not be able to avoid it this year either. AI solutions can be used in various areas - however, this requires a stringent strategy for the introduction of AI and the identification of use cases through to technical implementation. In particular, the use of AI in low-code environments is currently the subject of much discussion.

The introduction of the information register under the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) poses significant challenges for many companies. The new requirements of the European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs) force financial institutions to maintain a complete and regularly updated directory of all ICT-related contractual agreements. The associated efforts in terms of time, personnel and data management are enormous – but there is a solution.

In software development, agile methods and well-thought-out project management are often crucial for successful teams and projects – this applies to our customers as well as to us. As part of a recent training session with our colleagues at mgm technology partners, the topic of ‘Agile & Scrum Best Practices’ was highlighted and the participants had the opportunity to gain deep insights into agile frameworks, in particular Scrum.
