What Uimc Dr. Vossbein Gmbh & Co. Kg does

UIMC Dr. Vossbein GmbH & Co. KG is a Wuppertal-based consulting firm founded in 1997 that provides data protection (Datenschutz) and information security (Informationssicherheit) advisory services to German organizations, with focused practices in healthcare and higher education. The firm operates as a full-service provider ('Vollsortimenter') covering the complete compliance lifecycle — analysis, consulting, implementation, training, audit, and certification readiness — across DSGVO, KDG, NIS2, ISO 27001, TISAX, BSI IT-Grundschutz, HinSchG, and the EU AI Act. Core service lines are (i) external Data Protection Officer placement, DSMS implementation, DSFA, and data protection audits; (ii) ISMS implementation, NIS2 implementation, information security audits, and certification preparation; (iii) compliance services including BSI IT-Grundschutz, supplier assessment, quality seals, and a HinSchG-compliant whistleblower hotline; and (iv) employee awareness training through UIMCollege (eCollege E-Learning platform), management workshops, and phishing simulations. A proprietary CyberRisikoCheck assessment tool and a templates/tools library ('Hilfsmittel & Tools') round out the methodology stack.

The business is organized as a German Kommanditgesellschaft (KG) under Managing Director Dr. Jörn Voßbein, with two wholly owned sister entities: UIMCert GmbH (founded 2000) handles certification audits, and UIMCooperation GmbH provides shared IT infrastructure including website and eCollege hosting. Revenue is generated through professional-services fees (DPO/ISB outsourcing retainers, project-based consulting, certification-prep engagements, training workshops, and e-learning subscriptions) billed on multi-year contracts; pricing is not publicly disclosed and engagements begin with a free initial consultation. The go-to-market is sales-led and direct, supplemented by content marketing (website blog, UIMCommunication newsletter, whitepapers, seasonal promotions) and credentialed channels through memberships in GDD, eco, KH-IT, GI, ADV, and the IT-Sicherheit marketplace. UIMC's stated scale signals — 200+ cumulative years of consultant experience and 400+ active projects — together with a stated headcount band of 11–50 employees, point to an established, mid-sized specialized practice rather than a scale-stage firm. Geographic scope is limited to Germany, with 40+ apprentices trained historically indicating institutional knowledge transfer through the Ausbildung/duales Studium pipeline.
