What Proactive does

ProActive Solution SA is a Swiss enterprise software publisher headquartered in Sion (Valais), founded in 2001 and reorganized in 2018 as a spin-off of the R&D function of ProActive Partners SA. The company develops and maintains three proprietary vertical software platforms: Gstar, a process and case management suite used by Swiss cantonal and communal administrations; ProNova, a banking platform covering front-, middle-, and back-office operations with KYC/KYT and open banking capabilities; and Comete (plus the sPERS mobile add-on), a dynamic patient flow management platform used by hospitals and home care providers. The technology stack is centered on custom software development for workflow automation, process orchestration, and document generation, with integration and consulting partnerships covering Appway, Camunda, and Windward Studio.

The company serves three primary verticals in French-speaking Switzerland and beyond: public administration (seven cantons plus the Swiss Confederation), banking (cantonal banks including BCV, Raiffeisen, BCN, BCGE), and healthcare (including CHUV, Hôpital Riviera-Chablais, and Swiss Transplant). Delivery is direct enterprise sales via a proximity-based consulting model ('consulting de proximité'), with software engineering and quality assurance capacity based in Viana do Castelo, Portugal. Pricing is quote-based with annual billing cadence; revenue streams combine proprietary software licensing, custom development, and professional services for both the proprietary platforms and partner platforms. The firm is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors and reports 50+ collaborators as of 2022.

Broad incumbents

• Temenos AG: Global Swiss-headquartered banking software giant offering core banking, digital front-office and KYC/compliance platforms used by many of the same cantonal and retail banks as ProNova. Competes in the same banking software category but at much larger scale.
• Dedalus Group: Large European healthcare IT software group active across multiple countries including Switzerland, offering clinical and patient-flow solutions to hospitals. Overlaps with ProActive's Comete patient-flow platform at much larger scale and broader footprint.
• Avaloq Group AG: Swiss banking software provider (now part of NEC) delivering core banking and wealth management platforms. Overlaps with ProActive's ProNova in serving Swiss private and cantonal banks with end-to-end banking software.

Direct peers

• Ti&m AG: Swiss IT services company focused on digital transformation for banks, insurance and public sector, with proprietary platform components and integration services. Comparable to ProActive in customer base and delivery model.
• Bedag Informatik AG: Swiss public-sector IT services provider owned by the Canton of Bern, delivering custom software and digital administration solutions to cantons and municipalities. Directly competes with ProActive's public-administration practice.
• AdNovum Informatik AG: Swiss IT services firm with strong footprint in banking, insurance and public administration, offering custom development and product solutions. Competes with ProActive for enterprise custom-development mandates in Switzerland.
• ELCA Informatique SA: One of the largest independent Swiss IT services groups, serving banking, insurance, public sector and healthcare with custom software and managed services. Overlaps with ProActive on banking and public-administration engagements.
• Abraxas Informatik AG: Leading Swiss IT services firm specializing in public-sector software and digital government solutions across cantons and communes. Most direct competitor to ProActive's Gstar offering in the Swiss market.

Emerging players

• Camunda Services GmbH: Vendor of the Camunda process orchestration platform on which ProActive runs a dedicated consulting practice. Comparable on the workflow/orchestration layer underpinning Gstar and ProNova, though Camunda is horizontal while ProActive's offerings are vertical.
• Bizagi Group: Low-code process automation and case-management platform vendor used in regulated industries including government and financial services. Comparable to the workflow and case-management underpinnings of Gstar and ProNova at the platform layer.
