For recurring smaller tasks (up to 100 hours per task), we have created a ticket system.
You create a ticket at short notice whenever you need a circuit diagram.
A dedicated contact person in our company takes over the ticket, implements the task, and informs you once it has been completed.
You review and validate the work result and confirm that the task is completed.
Upon ticket closure, the task is billed to you.
Here, we support you with project planning and take over the electrical design work package for you.
We create the requirements and specification documents
We take responsibility for executing the defined tasks
We report our progress regularly and align it with the budget
We work actively with your team to solve interdisciplinary challenges and fully contribute our expertise
Electrical design is a dynamic field that is constantly influenced by new technologies and trends. A significant trend is the increasing use of CAE solutions (Computer-Aided Engineering), which optimize the entire design process. These solutions enable more precise planning and more efficient project execution.
Another important trend is the integration of automation technologies into electrical design. By automating many recurring tasks, time and costs can be reduced while simultaneously improving project quality.
Energy efficiency and sustainability are also key topics in modern electrical design. The development of energy-efficient systems not only helps reduce operating costs but also contributes to environmental protection.
The EPLAN platform plays a crucial role in these developments. It offers comprehensive tools and functions that support and optimize the entire design process. By using the EPLAN platform, companies can make their projects more efficient and sustainable.
By familiarizing yourself with these trends and developments, you can ensure that your projects remain state-of-the-art and meet the highest quality standards.
