MAxpertise digatus – MA Digitalization Solution Paired with Long-Standing MA Implementation Expertise

MAxpertise was founded in 2019 in Munich and sells a SaaS solution that covers the digitalization and project implementation of complex M processes. The platform is complemented by accompanying consulting services, which in combination enable a tool-supported transformation office, significantly increasing efficiency in large M programs. MAxpertise focuses on companies that want to map their M scenarios more efficiently through digitalization.

The MAxpertise brand will continue to exist in the future and will be integrated into the digatus Group over the next few months, being further developed in close cooperation with digatus it consulting GmbH. The aim is to further expand the market positioning in the M sector and, in addition to the long-standing experience as an IT M advisor, to be able to offer an accompanying SaaS solution in the future.

"MAxpertise has developed excellently over the last three years and, in addition to optimizing the M tool and its own methodology, has been able to win important customers. From our point of view, the acquisition represents a perfect portfolio addition for the digatus Group and is another step in our buy build strategy. We are also particularly pleased to welcome Johannes Ranftl as the existing and future managing director of MAxpertise to the digatus leadership."

I'm looking forward to the next steps and close cooperation with MAxpertise."

We are building on an already long-standing partnership and know that the culture of the companies fits very well together. In addition, we want to utilize the existing digatus M know-how and incorporate it into the platform to cover additional use cases."opportunity to grow even faster and more sustainably.
