Data and analytics consultancy in Friedrichshafen

Friedrichshafen sits in Baden-Württemberg, with an economy built on industrial machinery and engineering, aerospace, and automotive and mobility. We deliver Power BI, Microsoft Fabric and Azure work here remote-first, with on-site workshops at the points where being in the room changes the outcome, and we publish three local analyses rather than claiming an office we do not occupy.

Friedrichshafen analyses

Three local analyses

Each one takes the local sector mix seriously: the metrics that break here, the architecture those industries need, and the regulatory obligations that apply.
Local economy

The local economy

Friedrichshafen hosts globally significant driveline and aerospace electronics engineering in a small city, which means a few large, technically exacting clients dominate the local market. Configuration control and test data management are the recurring requirements.

Zeppelin University and the nearby Ravensburg-Weingarten institution supply engineering and management graduates.

Economic anchors

  • driveline and transmission engineering at global scale
  • aerospace and defence electronics
  • a major trade fair and airport presence

Where the clients sit

  • the city centre
  • the Fallenbrunnen technology area
  • the airport and trade fair district
  • Manzell

How buying works here

Six to sixteen weeks in the private sector.

Specification-driven and documented. The technical team and the Einkauf negotiate separately, references carry real weight, and a written proposal with itemised positions is expected rather than a slide deck.

Supplier and contracting information

Who has to say yes

  1. Fachbereich, the business area that owns the requirement
  2. IT, for architecture and operability
  3. Datenschutzbeauftragter, for the AVV and the processing position
  4. Betriebsrat, wherever employee performance could be derived from the reporting
  5. Einkauf, for commercial terms
  6. Geschäftsführung, above the delegated authority threshold

Have ready

  • Handelsregisterauszug, a current commercial register extract
  • Unbedenklichkeitsbescheinigung for tax and social security contributions
  • Betriebshaftpflicht and professional indemnity insurance certificates
  • Auftragsverarbeitungsvertrag (AVV), the Article 28 processing agreement, in German
  • Referenzen: named comparable projects, frequently with a contactable referee

Contract language: German for the contract, the AVV and the acceptance documentation, even where the delivery team works in English.

Next step

Analytics work in Friedrichshafen

A 45-minute technical review with an engineer who knows what industrial machinery and engineering and aerospace data looks like. We will tell you what we would build, in what order, and roughly what it costs.

How this usually runs here
Ein Fachgespräch, then an itemised Angebot in German with an AVV attached. Expect the technical review to be detailed.
