FUTUREDAT

What FUTUREDAT does

FUTUREDAT GmbH is a boutique IT service provider headquartered in Gera, Germany, founded in 2006 and operating across the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) with a close-knit team of approximately 30 employees and 250+ customers. The company delivers IT and Enterprise Service Management, managed services, sovereign cloud infrastructure, cybersecurity, and IT consulting primarily to mid-sized companies and public sector organizations, with deep expertise in BSI IT-Grundschutz, ISO 27001, and DSGVO compliance.

The technical core is a Matrix42 Gold Partnership (15+ years) complemented by 14 proprietary FUTUREDAT Add-ons that extend the Matrix42 ESM/UEM platform with workflow automation (UWE), AI-based ticket classification (AIKE, on-premise), predictive maintenance (FRED), multi-cloud cost management across Azure and AWS (CLOUDE), Tenable vulnerability integration (TIM), and SolarWinds ARM access-rights integration (ARMIN). The managed services portfolio is packaged into three tiers (Managed Client ENDPOINT, SERVICE, and FULL) with optional security, DNS security, and mobile device management add-ons, delivered over a BSI-certified sovereign cloud hosted in Germany through a partnership with NT Neue Technologie AG.

FUTUREDAT generates revenue primarily through monthly recurring managed-services subscriptions (including a unique all-inclusive Serviceflatrate model) and project-based IT consulting engagements, with a GTM motion combining direct enterprise field sales, partner-led channel distribution (Matrix42, Cameleon, Raynet, TEHTRIS, SolarWinds, BlackBerry, Blue Shield, Netwrix), and event-driven demand generation via monthly Tech-Talk webinars and industry events. Ownership is founder-managed by co-Managing Directors Jan Scheffel (technology and operations) and Tino Möller (market, customers, and finance), with no external institutional investors disclosed.
