Success Stories

Chances and Risks of new technologies in the health sector

Technology assessment and technology consulting. FZI analyses on site at medical pracises, hospitals and rescue services the technical and economical feasability of IT-solutions and their acceptancy among patients and decision makers.

Adapting old software systems to new regulations

FZI completes a European Prestige-project on consistent and efficient change management of service-based software systems in application domains which are heavily regulated by laws and rules.

Collaboration-tool involves customers in the software development process

Ready-for-use tool from the joint project CollaBaWue. The FZI tool OpenProposal involves users of software systems in the new or continuing developent of their working tools right from the start and in an easy fashion and fosters a better understanding of the participants.

Semantic technologies: Search and integration of information on a new level

A mid-sized enterprise becomes increasingly important for major enterprises. By using semantic technologies, products from ontoprise GmbH enable computers to  analyse informaion sources, to assess them in a meaningful manner and to automatically process them. FZI supports ontoprise in the development of supplemental components.

FZI accompanies the IT-retooling with scientific methods

Interdisciplinary analysis of migration projects: Financial institutions have to deskew and structure their historically grown IT infrastructures. FZI supports Union Investment in their decision for appropriate technologies.
