What Kopa does

KOPA d.d. (trading as Kopa) is a privately held Slovenian IT company headquartered in Slovenj Gradec, founded in 1978, that develops and implements integrated business software for enterprises in Slovenia, Croatia, and German-speaking markets. Its portfolio is organized around a core ERP system supplemented by specialized modules: ODiP/CloudDMS for document and process management, Kopa HRM for human resources, Kopa Plače for payroll, Kopa UTRIP for production monitoring, Kopa EAM (built on IBM Maximo) for asset maintenance, KoPro (Planska tabla) for production planning, and Kopa BI for analytics. Kopa has Gold partnerships with IBM (representing and localizing Maximo since 1996, first into Slovene and Croatian), Oracle, and HPE, and integrates with certified e-archive (Pošta Slovenije) and multiple e-signature providers.

The business model is consultative enterprise sales: a 60+ person team of specialized consultants guides customers from needs analysis through multi-month implementation to ongoing maintenance, generating revenue from software licensing/subscription, professional services, and managed services such as Payroll-as-a-Service. Customers are predominantly in manufacturing (BSH Nazarje, SIJ Acroni, Weiler Abrasives, Unior, Steklarna Hrastnik, Baumüller, Tech-Gum, SwatyComet, Premogovnik Velenje) with additional exposure to banking (Gorenjska banka), healthcare (Splošna bolnišnica Slovenj Gradec, Ravne na Koroškem Health Centre), energy/utilities (Energetika Maribor), food processing (Celjske mesnine), and mining. Pricing is quote-based and tailored.

Kopa's technology differentiation rests on long-tenured localization (Slovenian and Croatian regulatory and language compliance) and on two AI features: PRO-FIT, an LLM-based system that recognizes and structures employee production competencies from heterogeneous production data and won consecutive GZS Innovation Silver Awards in 2024 and 2025; and an internal-document AI chatbot ("Brain of Your Company") launched at the 2025 Users' Meeting, alongside an AI Agent for automated EDI document exchange. The company has 12 active partnerships spanning technology vendors (Oracle, IBM, HPE, Kaspersky, Aruba, DBvisit, TD SYNNEX) and certified compliance providers (DocuSign, BetrSign, mSign, Pošta Slovenije).

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• SAP: Global ERP and enterprise applications leader. Competes broadly with Kopa ERP across Slovenia and the region, particularly as SAP increasingly localizes S/4HANA for mid-market and CEE languages.
• Infor: Industry-specific ERP and cloud applications provider with strong manufacturing vertical focus. Directly comparable to Kopa's industry-targeted ERP/UTRIP/KoPro stack and frequently evaluated by the same Slovenian manufacturers.
• Oracle: Global enterprise software and cloud platform vendor. Kopa is an Oracle Gold Partner, so the relationship is dual-sided — but Oracle NetSuite and Fusion directly compete with Kopa ERP for mid-market manufacturing and HR workloads.
• Microsoft Dynamics 365: Microsoft's ERP/CRM cloud suite, increasingly adopted by mid-market enterprises in CEE. Represents the strongest long-term competitive threat given bundling with Microsoft 365 and aggressive localization investments.
• IBM (Maximo Application Suite): IBM is both Kopa's core EAM technology partner (25+ years) and a competitor via direct Maximo sales to large enterprises. The dual relationship creates ecosystem dependency and channel conflict risk.

Direct peers

• Actual I.T. d.o.o. Slovenian business software vendor offering ERP, DMS, payroll, and HR solutions to SMBs and mid-market. Closely comparable product portfolio and customer segment within the same domestic market.
• Comtrade Group: Slovenia-founded IT services and software group operating across the Adriatic region, providing custom software development, system integration, and enterprise solutions. Highly comparable in regional scope, services-plus-software model, and target mid-market enterprise segment.
• SRC d.o.o. Slovenian IT company offering enterprise software, system integration, and consulting across ERP, DMS, and HR-adjacent categories. Direct peer in the Slovenian mid-market with overlapping product lines and similar customer profile.

Regional players

• Asseco Poland: Large Central European IT group with enterprise software, banking systems, and ERP across CEE. Comparable in regional scale and breadth, and a potential consolidator or competitor in Slovenia/Croatia.
• B2 (Pentaequip): Croatian ERP and business software provider with localized enterprise solutions. Comparable in product category and Adriatic regional footprint, representing both a direct competitor in Croatia and a potential partnership/expansion model for Kopa.
