Mannheim, January 18, 2024 - JobRouter GmbH, manufacturer of the cross-industry low-code digitalization platform JobRouter®, announced the acquisition of the sycat Group today. JobRouter and sycat now form a joint organization with more than 140 employees, whose products are used by more than 4,500 companies. Sycat has offices in Hannover and Düsseldorf and specializes in the development of software for integrated management systems (IMS), process management, and solutions for digital training and instruction. Sycat also has a high level of expertise in the field of organizational and process consulting. Together JobRouter and sycat are able to offer process management and process automation from a single source. Frank Schroeder and Marco Idel will continue to shape the future of the company as managing directors of the sycat Group.
"sycat integrates perfectly into the JobRouter corporate philosophy," explains Axel Ensinger, Co-CEO of JobRouter GmbH. "With our digitalization platform, we offer companies a wealth of functions to digitally map any business processes. Sycat bundles process knowledge, shows workflows, interrelationships and responsibilities, and therefore eases project implementation.
Process management and automation from a single source
Besides digital and automated business processes, every company has numerous manual or knowledge collecting processes. The sycat IMS platform consolidates this knowledge, makes it available to all employees and provides relevant data and documents for learning, modelling and optimization measures. Sycat's 2750 worldwide customers are now able to convert their recorded processes into digital and automated business processes quickly.
"We already have users who use both solutions, such as Schott AG and Kral GmbH. In the future all customers will be able to access the expanded portfolio quickly and easily," says Marco Idel, Managing Partner of the sycat Group. "Our customers will benefit from this merger across the board," adds Frank Schroeder, also Managing Partner of the sycat Group. "The combined solutions offer enormous potential, which is why a rapid integration is planned."
Merger intents to make it easier for customers to switch to digital structures
sycat primarily supports medium-sized companies. Most of these companies engage in the industrial, mobility/transportation or retail business with a large number of processes or very complex ones. Many of these companies are focusing on the topic of process automation as part of the digital transformation in the SME sector. With sycat’s IMS process modeling functions and the integrated task and procedure management, customers know exactly how their processes run, which authorizations, weak points or actions they contain or can be derived from them.
"This is very advantageous for critical processes such as invoice processing," says Marcus Nagel, Co-CEO of JobRouter GmbH. "JobRouter customers can now set up end-to-end process management and consolidate their sensitive data. New digitalization projects will run even more effectively and securely. We will furthermore make the sycat portfolio available to our large partner network and expand it with a new partner group."
