Scheuss and Partner

What Scheuss and Partner does

Scheuss & Partner AG is a privately held Swiss IT services provider founded in 1989 and headquartered in Zürich, with a second office in Baar added through the January 2025 merger of Sandhofer Informatik GmbH. The firm employs approximately 60 people and serves Swiss SMEs, large enterprises, and public institutions, with dedicated vertical offerings for education (School+), legal practices (Advocat360), and social-care organizations (Cura360). Its commercial motion is direct enterprise field sales supported by an e-commerce storefront (shop.scheuss-partner.ch) and the publicloud Marketplace for cloud subscriptions.

The company operates a Microsoft-centric technology stack, anchored by Microsoft Azure, Microsoft 365, Teams, SharePoint, Power Platform, and Dynamics 365, augmented by the proprietary publicloud managed services platform and publicloud Marketplace, the Cloud360 transformation framework, and a suite of branded "360°" solutions covering security (Security360), workplace (Workplace360), collaboration (Collab360), and servicedesk (Servicedesk360). Hardware is sourced through partnerships with HP, Lenovo, Samsung, and CBA Computer Broker, with 36-48 month rental financing via CHG-Meridian. AI capabilities are delivered as a Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Agents reseller/integrator, including Pay-as-you-go knowledge-retrieval agents.

Revenue is generated through a mix of professional services (consulting, implementation, staff leasing), recurring managed services and maintenance contracts (Servicedesk360, publicloud, publicloud Marketplace subscriptions), hardware/software resale, and hardware rental. Pricing is quote-based under Swiss AGB frameworks, with hourly service rates, surcharges for off-hours work, and SLA-backed servicedesk subscriptions billed monthly or annually in advance. No revenue is publicly disclosed and the company has not raised external funding, operating as an owner-managed Aktiengesellschaft.
