What ISC Business Technology does

ISC Business Technology AG (ISC BT AG) is a Swiss-domiciled management holding company headquartered in Winterthur (CHE-107.561.518) that consolidates a network of twelve German and Swiss IT consulting subsidiaries, including ISC Innovative Systems Consulting AG, ISC analytics & solutions AG, plus-IT GmbH/AG, Aggredi AG, aio IT for Logistics GmbH, Rohwerder Datasystems GmbH, ISC ITSolutions AG, Inn2 GmbH, ASCAVO AG, ISG Informatik Service GmbH, and others. The group was founded as a holding around 2006 on the basis of ISC AG (established 1998 by Peter Heinold in Rosenheim, Germany), went public on the Open Market in Germany in June 2006, transitioned to the Entry Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange in 2012, and was delisted on 26 February 2024 while continuing operations as an unlisted Aktiengesellschaft.

The group's core technology and service offering centers on SAP and Microsoft platforms, with subsidiaries holding SAP Premium Partner, SAP VAR, and SAP Education Partner designations. The portfolio spans SAP ERP (modules CS, PM, SD, MM, FI, CO, LO-WTY), SAP CRM, SAP NetWeaver BI/MDM, SAP BusinessObjects, and SAP Analytics Cloud implementations, supplemented by proprietary add-ons including easyBI (BSC and Tiles dashboards), IKS Web Public governance tooling, and Enterprise Architecture planning products. Domain-specialized subsidiaries add non-SAP capabilities: aio IT for Logistics offers the Lewin standard software for transport and intralogistics (resource management, dispatch, tour planning, mobile order management, vehicle monitoring, digital tachograph, temperature logging); Rohwerder Datasystems provides RD DIGITAL modular backup, outsourcing, and web hosting; Inn2 GmbH delivers intelligent SAP implementations; ISC ITSolutions AG handles IT security consulting with products from Sophos, Checkpoint, Forcepoint, Ivanti, Trend Micro, and LG; and ASCAVO AG addresses real estate and fund industry consulting.

The business model combines project-based IT consulting and professional services (strategy, implementation, integration, maintenance) with software licensing of SAP, proprietary products (Lewin, easyBI), and recurring managed services (RD DIGITAL backup/hosting). Revenue mechanics rely on direct enterprise field sales, multi-year bespoke contracts quoted per engagement, and SAP channel economics via VAR and Education Partner arrangements. Target customers are mid-market and enterprise organizations across industry, healthcare, financial services, consumer goods, and public sector — disclosed clients include Deutsche Telekom, Siemens, Rohde & Schwarz, Crypto AG, Strellson, Vögele Shoes, GVFI AG, Klinikum Großhadern, and Klinikum Frankenthal. No group-level revenue, headcount, or financial KPIs are publicly disclosed; the only reported figure is approximately 50 employees at the ISC AG subsidiary.
