VIDEX

What VIDEX does

VIDEX GmbH is a privately held Austrian building automation and system integration firm headquartered in Dornbirn, Vorarlberg (registered at FB-Gericht Feldkirch, ATU77665135). The company designs, installs, programs, and maintains comprehensive building automation systems for residential, commercial, and industrial clients across the Vorarlberg region. Its core technology stack is built on the Loxone platform, supplemented by multi-vendor components for HVAC control (Belimo), video intercoms and access control (2N), security systems (Koch Sicherheitstechnik), connectivity (Metz Connect), and IT infrastructure (Allnet). VIDEX service offerings span energy and load management (including EV charging/wallbox integration), photovoltaic integration, smart lighting with DALI control, automated shading, climate control (heating/cooling/ventilation), digital access control, video intercoms, and digital signage for doors/mailboxes/doorbells. The firm operates with a small, technically experienced team of three led by Managing Director Ing. Frank Schwendinger, and holds Gold Partner status with Loxone.

The company follows a project-based, custom-solution business model with no standard pricing tiers disclosed. Each engagement moves through its proprietary "Circle of Competence" four-step methodology: requirements analysis, system design and component selection, implementation and programming, and ongoing operations/maintenance. Revenue derives from professional services (planning, installation, programming), managed services (remote monitoring, optimization, maintenance — typically multi-year contracts), and electrical installations and hardware trade. The pricing model is custom per project, billed as multi-year contracts where ongoing service is included. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales with deep early-stage project involvement, targeting property developers, building owners, and businesses across residential, commercial, retail, healthcare, banking, and industrial segments. Marketing is handled primarily through project reference case studies on the company website, supplemented by LinkedIn and Facebook presence.

VIDEX has built a portfolio of nine or more documented reference projects, including the Eurospar Rheincenter shopping center retrofit, the Romagna R2 office/production facility (pursuing ÖGNI sustainable building certification), the Corner21 mixed-use building, the Im Augarten residential complex, Dr. Greiner dental practice, Oswald Apotheke pharmacy, Raiffeisenbank Sulz, Nägele Hoch- und Tiefbau (Porr AG), and Double V office building. The company is not funded by external investors, has no parent company, and operates without disclosed subsidiaries or international expansion. Its competitive positioning rests on being a single, technically credible regional integrator for complex multi-system building automation projects where fragmentation across vendors is the primary customer pain point.
