Project Consult Unternehmensberatung

What Project Consult Unternehmensberatung does

Project Consult Unternehmensberatung Dr. Ulrich Kampffmeyer GmbH is an independent, vendor- and product-neutral consultancy headquartered in Hamburg, Germany. Founded on 1 July 1992 by Dr. Ulrich Kampffmeyer and operating until 30 June 2022, the firm provided advisory services across the information management lifecycle — including enterprise content management (ECM), document management systems (DMS), electronic archiving, records management, business process management, information governance, compliance, change management, and digital transformation. Engagements spanned strategy development, solution/vendor selection, organizational implementation support, coaching, project management, and training/seminars (including AIIM certification courses), delivered by senior consultants each carrying more than 30 years of experience.

The firm does not develop or license proprietary software. Its technology stack is conventional: a WordPress website hosted by IONOS, a public knowledge base operated on the Theum platform (provided by Theum AG with Strato AG servers), and Microsoft Teams for client video conferencing. The knowledge base and an ISSN-registered newsletter (ISSN 1439-0809, published 1999–2022) — both released under Creative Commons CC BY-NC-ND — constitute the firm's primary content assets and serve as top-of-funnel marketing channels rather than monetizable products.

Commercially, Project Consult operated as a boutique professional services firm on a direct, engagement-based sales model. Headcount is reported at 1–10 employees, share capital (Stammkapital) is €51,129.19, and pricing is not publicly disclosed — quotes are arranged project-by-project via direct contact with the managing director. The firm served a blue-chip enterprise client base across banking (Deutsche Bank, BMW Bank, Credit Suisse, Bundesbank, Sparkassen), insurance (Generali, Munich Re), industry (Bosch, Daimler, Bayer, Roche), public administration (BMVG, Bundeswehr, European Commission, Swiss Federal Chancellery), and international organizations, with cumulative engagement volume exceeding 300 projects over 30 years. Operative business was discontinued on 30 June 2022, and the legal entity now exists primarily to maintain the archived website and knowledge base.
