Our focus here is on the development of intelligent technologies that not only make your production more efficient and flexible, but also enable real innovation.

Four values for PAILOT

Full commitment: we have internalized these values

Our APS is driven by data, our competent team and our way of working by values. These were jointly defined, are still reflected on at regular meetings and form the basis for our actions both in our internal collaboration and in our work with customers.

Trust

We keep our promises, communicate openly and honestly and trust in the skills of our team. Together, we create a reliable and transparent working relationship - both internally and with our partners.

Excellence

We set the highest standards and strive for continuous improvement. With our dedicated team, we solve challenges efficiently and always find the best solutions for our customers.

Passion

We are driven by our enthusiasm for technology and the complex challenges of our customers. With creativity, team spirit and the will to innovate, we do everything we can to achieve exceptional results.

Agility

We react flexibly to new trends and challenges. With quick decisions and dynamic working methods, we create solutions that are always one step ahead.

Win-win situation

We don't share success, we double it

We take our customers' feedback seriously and are continuously developing our APS. These improvements are quickly available in practice in our cloud solution. This means that not only is our APS constantly evolving, but the improvements are also quickly reflected in our customers' production figures and working methods.
