CO Improve - Your partner for successful transformations

Innovation, speed and efficiency make the difference!!!

As a European company, you compete globally on the basis of innovation, quality and speed.

To do this, you need a product development system that not only works, but is also powerful, adaptable and strategically aligned.

As a manager, you master a challenging environment

Do you have enough time and space for strategic development?

Increasing complexity and rapid change are meeting ambitious internal expectations – even faster development, better products, greater efficiency. In addition, you have to manage your day-to-day business.

But is there enough time and space to strategically develop your product creation? You have good ideas yourself – what you need is a sparring partner on equal footing and support for sustainable implementation.

And that's where we come in!!!

Your satisfaction

"WITTE has worked intensively with CO Improve in recent years. The focus has been on introducing product change management in development and series production, improving component industrialisation and the strategic alignment of product management. In particular, the new change management system with its mapping in JIRA workflows has significantly improved transparency and decision-making quality. In addition to the technical expertise, the professional change management, which ensures sustainable implementation, deserves special mention. The CO Improve consultants know how to win people over at all levels and accompany them through the change process."

Rainer Gölz

CEO, Witte Automotive

"Together with CO Improve, we have reorganised our product development activities. We have turned over almost every stone and rethought our strategy, processes and organisation. From analysis to implementation, we have always received pragmatic, competent support at all hierarchical levels and established systems that we will use to continuously improve."

Philipp Habsburg

Member of the Board, KTM

"We successfully launched our change initiative KPDO (KION Product Development Optimisation) together with CO Improve - with very professional and holistic support and a great deal of empathy. Stakeholders were involved right from the start, optimisations were developed conceptually and later implemented consistently and successfully. Key success factors: the target-oriented deployment of CO Improve experts from a wide range of specialist areas and their strength in communicating with all levels at eye level - be it with our board members or managing directors as well as with employees from a wide range of specialist areas. The new approaches that have emerged will help us to sustainably increase our efficiency and effectiveness in all areas of product development."

Astrid Janke

Vice President Product and Technology Strategy and KPDO Initiative, KION Group

"Together with CO Improve, we carried out a maturity assessment of our product development processes and organisation. The analysis covered our strategy, process landscape and organisational structure and was supplemented by valuable benchmark comparisons. Together with CO Improve, we used the results to derive targeted improvement initiatives and develop a detailed implementation plan, which was drawn up in close consultation with all those involved. CO Improve provided us with practical, pragmatic and efficient support during implementation as required. Thanks to this collaboration, we have taken a decisive step towards strengthening the future viability of our company."
