What T2i group does

Groupe T2i Suisse SA is a Swiss software publisher and IT services provider headquartered in Sierre (Valais), founded in 1983 as TI Informatique and rebranded under the holding name Groupe T2i in 2014. The company develops and maintains four core proprietary software products: Youdoc (modular electronic document management with scanning, workflow automation, and ePost integration), HR Café (SwissDec 4-certified payroll and HR portal processing over 50,000 monthly salary slips), Citizen.CH (municipal ERP covering resident control, finances, cadastre, and construction management), and Meeting (session and affairs management for public bodies with integrated DMS). All products run on T2i-operated infrastructure hosted in Swiss data centres (primary site at Brainserve in Crissier, secondary in Sierre for geographic redundancy) under ISAE 3402 Type II audited controls.

The business operates a dual model combining recurring software licensing and SaaS/managed-hosting revenue with project-based IT consulting, managed services, payroll outsourcing, and hardware resale. GTM centres on direct enterprise sales to Swiss public administrations (primary segment, ~2,000 customers) complemented by technology partners (Cisco, Microsoft, VMware, Fortinet, HCL, Sophos, SwissSign, etc.), Swiss Post co-marketing, and event-driven demand generation (Foire du Valais, Rencontre des communes romandes). Pricing is custom/quote-based across enterprise and SME tiers, with subscription billing for hosting, HR Café modules, and SaaS deployments.

Since November 2022, Groupe T2i has been under the ownership of Swiss Post (La Poste Suisse), the Swiss federal government-owned postal operator, which acquired a 51% majority stake initially and completed the 100% acquisition in December 2024 by buying founder Claude-Michel Salamin's remaining 49%. Revenues were reported at approximately CHF 25 million annually (with >20% reinvested in R&D), and headcount stands at roughly 150 across locations in Sierre, Renens, and Bolligen. A planned merger with sibling Swiss Post subsidiary Dialog Verwaltungs-Data AG will take effect on April 1, 2026, creating a combined Swiss Post Digital Government entity of approximately 200 employees headquartered in Bern. The current CEO is Christian Kohli (appointed August 2023).

Direct peers

• Abraxas Informatik AG: Swiss IT specialist focused on public sector solutions for cantons, communes, and government entities. Closest direct competitor to T2i in the Swiss municipal software market, offering comparable products in document management, GIS, and citizen services.
• Dialog Verwaltungs-Data AG: Sister company under Swiss Post developing software for public administrations, planned to merge with Groupe T2i effective April 1, 2026. Operates a near-identical product portfolio for German-speaking Swiss communes, making it the most strategically aligned peer.
• ti&m AG: Swiss software publisher and IT services company serving banks, insurance, and public sector clients. Comparable in scale (~600 employees) and business model combining proprietary software products with integration services, with overlap in financial sector and document management.
• ELCA Informatique SA: One of Switzerland's largest independent IT services firms (~1,500 employees) with a strong public sector practice and proprietary software products. Comparable as a Swiss-rooted software publisher and IT services hybrid targeting regulated industries.
• AdNovum AG: Swiss software and IT services company specializing in secure, custom-built applications for government, finance, and industry. Overlaps with T2i in providing bespoke software for regulated Swiss public sector clients with data sovereignty requirements.
• VRZ Informatik AG: Swiss IT cooperative providing software and services for public administrations, schools, and non-profits. Direct competitor in the municipal administration space with comparable Swiss-specific software products and a cooperative ownership model.
• Calingo AG: Swiss provider of HR and payroll software, with comparable customer base among SMEs and public sector organizations. Overlaps directly with HR Café in Swiss payroll processing and complements the broader HR/payroll ecosystem T2i serves.

Broad incumbents

• Swisscom AG (Enterprise): Switzerland's dominant telecom and IT services provider with a public sector business serving cantons and federal entities. Overlaps with T2i in hosting, managed services, and digital workplace offerings but at much larger scale and broader portfolio.
• Microsoft Switzerland (Dynamics 365): Global enterprise software vendor with a growing Swiss public sector presence through Dynamics 365 ERP and Azure cloud. Competes with Citizen.CH for municipal ERP workloads and represents the principal displacement risk at multi-year renewal cycles.

Others

• PostFinance AG: Sister Swiss Post subsidiary offering digital financial services. Not a direct software competitor, but as part of the same parent ecosystem, it provides distribution synergies and adjacent digital services that complement T2i's municipal ERP and document management offerings.
