What Digatus does

Digatus is a German-headquartered IT consulting and professional services firm that operates across the DACH region with primary offices referenced in Augsburg. It delivers six interlocking service lines: IT Advisory (strategy, governance, audit, service management), IT M&A (Due Diligence, M&A Strategy, Exit & Future Readiness, Carve-out Management, Post Merger Integration), IT Transformation (project delivery, change management, process management, IT Interim Management, Modern Workplace), IT Services (Managed, Workplace and Datacenter), Software Development (Individual Software, DevOps, Data Science), and a newer AI-Transformation portfolio (Sovereign AI, AI Transformation Lab, AI Governance, AI Agents & Automation, AI im M&A-Kontext).

The company's commercial model blends project-based professional services (advisory, transformation, carve-outs, custom software) with recurring managed services (infrastructure, workplace, datacenter). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with engagements described as multi-year contracts. The go-to-market is direct enterprise and mid-market field sales via the corporate website, a service-desk hotline, and a dedicated career portal supporting four Fachbereiche: Consulting & Projektmanagement, Software Development, IT Operations & Services, and Corporate Services.

Digatus targets German Mittelstand companies, PE- and investor-backed firms (including carve-outs), and large enterprise / DAX-equivalent organizations. Documented customer logos include Siemens Healthineers, Thüga, Nokia, Linde, DocMorris, Mutares, PSD Bank Nürnberg, Yunex Traffic, Corden Pharma, Next.e.GO, and SFC Solutions, with stated quantified outcomes such as over €1 million in TSA savings for Corden Pharma. The legal entity is digatus technology GmbH (Germany), the firm is privately held with no disclosed external parent or institutional investor, and adminservice24 GmbH is a wholly-owned subsidiary acquired in August 2024. A partnership with Gubbi was announced in December 2024, and the company holds ISO/IEC 27001 certification.
