Welcome to PONTE GmbH - Your software expert for Project Management and Professional Service Automation

PONTE is specializing in the development of collaborative software applications, with a strong focus on
Project Management, Resource Management, and Professional Service Automation (PSA).

Project Management has become a prevailing management paradigm. This is mainly due to radical
changes in the way how business processes are conducted in today's world, where traditional functional
hierarchies have largely been complemented by more versatile, project-oriented organizations.
"Management by Projects" is much more than a buzzword - it has turned into a necessity for many
successful businesses.

On the other hand, cross-company networks are becoming more and more important.
A few examples: Subsidiaries of large corporations conduct joint projects, aiming at benefiting from
synergistic effects. Small-to-medium businesses cooperate in syndicates that let them obtain compe-
titive advantages by bundling their individual strengths. Manufacturers and their suppliers cooperate
more closely than ever in order to shorten development cycles and reduce time-to-market.

In 1996 the PONTE comapany became an IBM Software Business Partner.
