AM2i

What AM2i does

AM2i is a Belfort, France-based software and information technology company founded in June 1987 by Hervé Quinson and operating as a SARL (private limited company). With 1–10 employees, the firm functions as a diversified micro-enterprise offering management software, custom industrial automation, IT services, and retail.

The company's core offering is a suite of management software covering ERP, electronic document management (GED), ISO compliance, association management, automotive trade, energy management, goods flow, workshop provisioning, and construction costs. These are sold as standalone products rather than an integrated platform. Alongside software, AM2i designs and manufactures custom industrial automation systems and special machines for niche applications including mountain infrastructure, telephony, magnetography, automotive, thermal power plants, physiotherapy, and home automation. IT services — consulting, installation, technical support, maintenance, and DRTE-approved training — complete the portfolio, supported by a physical and online retail boutique for IT hardware and software.

AM2i serves primarily French artisans, micro-enterprises (TPE), small-medium enterprises (PME), and liberal professions, with secondary exposure to individuals, agricultural operations, and industrial companies. Revenue is generated through one-time software licenses, professional services, hardware/software retail sales, and bespoke industrial machine contracts. GTM is sales-led and relationship-driven, with distribution through a Belfort storefront, two e-commerce sites (am2i.pro/store, am2ienergy.fr/store), and direct B2B engagement. The company's 2013 launch of a dedicated renewable energy division and energy management software represents its most recent strategic expansion, with no subsequent funding, M&A, or geographic expansion disclosed.

Direct peers

• Cegid: Major French SMB ERP, HR, and finance software vendor; competes head-on with AM2i for the same TPE/PME customers in France with similar horizontal management software offerings.
• Divalto: French SMB ERP and field-service management software publisher; comparable French heritage, similar customer-size focus (TPE/PME), and overlapping management software positioning.
• Odoo SA: Open-source modular ERP/CRM platform popular with French SMBs; competes on the same ERP-management opportunity and offers integrated modules that threaten AM2i's standalone solutions.
• SII Group: French IT services and engineering firm delivering custom software, IT consulting, and industrial systems — directly comparable to AM2i's combined IT services and industrial automation bureau offering.
• Sage France: Global SMB accounting and ERP provider with a strong French presence; offers ERP-style products that overlap directly with AM2i's Logiciels de gestion (ERP, gestion énergétique, négoce) portfolio.

Broad incumbents

Emerging players

• Pennylane: French fintech/management platform for TPEs and small businesses; modern cloud alternative threatening AM2i's incumbent position with SMB customers in France.
