What Hetkamp Gmbh does

Hetkamp GmbH is a German value-added reseller and consulting firm headquartered in Borken, North Rhine-Westphalia, that has operated for approximately 30 years as a private GmbH under Managing Director Marius Hetkamp. The company resells, implements and supports business software for small and medium-sized enterprises, with a portfolio anchored by long-standing certified partnerships with CSS AG (eGECKO) and Infor (Varial), supplemented by PHOENIX/Scopevisio document management, Corporate Planner controlling, infra:NET ERP and Vezu Cloud private-cloud hosting. Functional coverage spans financial accounting, asset accounting, cost accounting, group consolidation, payroll, HR, time tracking, travel expenses, controlling, document management and ERP, with multi-country version support (DE, EN, IT, NL, RU, CZ, PL, CH, FR, HU) for international customers.

The company operates a sales-led go-to-market: it positions itself as an independent, vendor-neutral advisor, offers free initial consultation, runs an Akademie of year-round training seminars, and staffs dedicated support hotlines for finance, HR, document management and technical issues. It sells primarily to German Mittelstand customers across trading, craft, services and manufacturing, with case studies in publishing, automotive retail, plastics, textiles, construction, medical devices and energy. Revenue is generated through a mix of software license reselling (recurring), professional consulting and implementation services (one-off plus training), ongoing support subscriptions, and managed cloud services delivered through Vezu Cloud. Pricing is consultation-based and not publicly disclosed.

Operationally the firm runs with roughly 40 employees, has realized about 1,000 projects and serves over 500 national and international customers, and is GDPR/DSGVO-compliant. Ownership is concentrated with the founding family/management, with no parent company, external investors, subsidiaries, M&A activity or public funding disclosed. The dominant strategic theme is the gradual shift from on-premises license reselling toward recurring cloud revenue, evidenced by the recent Scopevisio and Vezu Cloud partnerships and the 2024 launch of the next-generation Varial Plus software.
