What BEKO Engineering & Informatik does

BEKO Solutions GmbH is an Austrian technology services provider headquartered in Vienna, founded in 1966 by Prof. Ing. Peter Kotauczek and operating across seven Austrian offices (Vienna, Linz, Graz, Klagenfurt, Salzburg, Innsbruck, Hagenberg). The company delivers integrated technology services spanning five core lines: Personnel Solutions (staff leasing and recruitment), Digital Solutions (digital transformation consulting and implementation), Data & AI Solutions (including the proprietary nAIvigate AI Use Case Generator), Visual Solutions (video production, virtual studios, 3D scanning, virtual event platforms), and Engineering Solutions (Industry 4.0, automation, mechanical/electrical engineering). With over 700 highly qualified employees, BEKO serves Austrian industrial manufacturers, mid-to-large enterprises, and public-sector clients through direct enterprise sales, on-site deployment, and in-house delivery.

The company's business model is professional services and staff augmentation — clients are billed on project-based consulting engagements, ongoing maintenance contracts, and personnel leasing arrangements. BEKO monetizes its delivery through direct enterprise sales (project-based and time-and-materials), a self-serve recruitment channel (jobs.beko.at), and personnel placement (Arbeitsvermittlung, Überlassung von Arbeitskräften). Technology assets include proprietary AI tools (nAIvigate, Kunstschatzi computer-vision art-matching tool built with FRAISS IT for Kunsthistorisches Museum), a virtual studio production stack (NVIDIA Broadcast, OBS, greenscreen), and Industry 4.0/VR/AR capabilities using Microsoft HoloLens. ISO 27001 certification (2025) and Best Recruiters awards (Gold 2023, Silver 2021/2022) support enterprise and government contracting.

The customer base spans industrial manufacturing (Industry 4.0 focus), large enterprise IT consulting, education (HTL schools, Coding School Wörthersee), and cultural institutions (Kunsthistorisches Museum, Spark Art Fair). Revenue is concentrated almost entirely within Austria, with one international delivery model referenced but no disclosed geographic expansion. The company remains privately held by the Kotauczek family (Christof Kotauczek as co-owner and Geschäftsführer) with no institutional investors or disclosed funding.
