The core of our business model is independent consultation and
integration of infrastructure-based solutions revolving around central
IT. By partnering with leading manufacturers such as IBM, EMC,
HP/Compaq, Sun Microsystems, and others, COMPAREX can - on behalf of
its customers - manage complex projects as general contractor.
Growing
up in computer centers that were dominated for a long time by mainframe
computers, large-capacity computers, COMPAREX is very familiar with
customers’ needs for high-availability and security.
In over 20 years COMPAREX has acquired know-how in the mainframe
environment (OS/390, z/OS, VM, VSE) and in the last five years
transferred and expanded its know-how to the open systems (AIX, UNIX,
Linux, Sun Solaris, Microsoft NT, W2000, Novell).
With the help of consolidation, migration and standardisation
projects, COMPAREX contributes greatly to cost reduction (TCO) and to a
fast return on investment (ROI) of their customers’ IT-environment.
In doing so, COMPAREX Global Services supports the customers
throughout the whole process-from vision to start of operation. A
special advantage is the COMPAREX Competence Center. In this
development and testing laboratory in Edingen/Mannheim experts develop,
together with partners, integrated solutions. In this center, solutions
of a complete data processing center environment can be evaluated and
adapted to specific needs, independently from the customers’ actual
business.
In order to support the operational business, the COMPAREX service
team is available around the clock. Additionally, the CCCC is
developing more and more into a training center that is increasingly
being used by COMPAREX partners and customers.
There are numerous customers to which COMPAREX has applied its
methology, examples are: ALD Vakuum Technologies AG, BASF IT Services,
Enercity-Stadtwerke Hannover, Rechenzentrum Karlsruhe, Frankonia Jagd,
Max-Planck-Institute Berlin-Brandenburg, HVBInfo, HDW Kiel, NORDAC,
Nordmilch eG, Peter Hahn, T-Systems FSH, TÜV Süddeutschland, Stadt
Wolfsburg, Siemens ICN, Vorwerk Zeda and others.
COMPAREX employs approx. 650 employees in Germany and is represented
with 7 branch offices across the country. In Europe, COMPAREX has
approx 1,000 employees and is represented in 11 European countries.
Annual sales in Europe amount to approx. 300 Mio. Euro.
