What Modus Consult does

MODUS Consult GmbH is a German IT consulting firm headquartered in Gütersloh and founded in 1995. The company operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bechtle AG (Bechtle-Gruppe), one of Germany's largest IT service providers listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. Approximately 300 employees work across six German office locations, with the firm positioned as a Microsoft Cloud Partner and ELO Business Partner.

The company's portfolio centers on Microsoft Business Applications: Dynamics 365 ERP (Business Central, Finance and Supply Chain Management, and Project Operations), Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement (CRM), the Power Platform suite (Power Apps, Power Automate, Power Pages, and Copilot Studio), Microsoft 365, Azure, SharePoint, Power BI, and enterprise content management through ELO and Shareflex. AI and Copilot integration services layer onto this stack using Microsoft's own AI tooling, and the firm complements implementation with managed services for Lifecycle Management and M365/Azure maintenance and support.

MODUS Consult generates revenue primarily through professional services — IT consulting, software development, project management, and implementation — together with managed services for ongoing lifecycle management and support of deployed environments. Go-to-market is direct enterprise and mid-market field sales targeted at vertical segments: mechanical and plant engineering, food and life sciences, supplier industry, metal/plastic manufacturing, furniture, professional services, and trade/retail. Marketing reach is supported through content marketing, webinars, SEO, and a careers portal, while distribution is anchored by six regional offices and the broader Bechtle ecosystem.

Direct peers

• Avanade: Joint venture between Accenture and Microsoft focused exclusively on Microsoft technologies, including Dynamics 365 ERP/CRM, Power Platform, and Azure services — the closest direct competitor to MODUS Consult's Microsoft Business Applications consulting practice, though at materially larger scale.
• Cosmo Consult: Germany-headquartered Microsoft Dynamics 365 partner offering ERP/CRM implementation, Power Platform, and managed services to Mittelstand and mid-market customers — closely comparable in size, geography, and Microsoft-centric focus.
• Allgeier: German IT services group with a Microsoft Business Applications practice serving mid-market and enterprise customers — comparable end-market exposure and Microsoft-centric delivery model.
• SVA System Vertrieb Alexander: German IT system integrator with a strong Microsoft partner practice delivering Azure, M365, and Dynamics 365 services to enterprise and mid-market customers — directly comparable on Microsoft-centric mid-market IT services delivery in the DACH region.

• Sopra Steria: European IT services group with a Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Azure consulting practice, competing in DACH mid-market and enterprise segments — overlaps on Microsoft services but with a broader technology and consulting portfolio.
• Accenture: Global professional services firm with a large Microsoft Business Applications group (and parent of Avanade); competes for larger Dynamics 365 enterprise transformation deals that MODUS cannot independently staff.
• NTT Data: Global IT services provider with a Microsoft practice delivering Dynamics 365, Azure, and Power Platform services — competes on enterprise Microsoft transformation but across a much broader services portfolio.
• T-Systems: Deutsche Telekom's enterprise IT services arm, offering Microsoft-centric cloud and application services to large German and European customers — competes in the same DACH Microsoft services market with broader telecom-cloud capabilities.
