»With its almost playful approach, Infront helped KSB to get a handle on the topic of digitalization and the possible consequences. The result was that, within a very short space of time, we developed digital issues (business models) in a lab environment, tested them and, in doing so, built up methodological competence. Infront was also very helpful in recruiting younger team members with “contemporary skills”. Today, digitalization is one of our focus areas organized on a broad basis with the aid of Infront. Know-how, pragmatism and the possibility of structuring approaches with a competent team and challenging them are what make Infront stand out.«

Head of Strategy, KSB AG

»In my time at E-Plus and at Bertelsmann I always returned to Infront when it was about developing a strategic measure and implementing it. At the point where many initiatives fail due to the lack of operational execution, and many another consultant company has long moved on to the next client, Infront actively shaped this critical and successful phase together with us – as part of the internal management team and not as »the consultant coming in from the outside«.«

»It took a few weeks to develop and implement the concept for the PHOENIX Innovation Days in a small powerful team together with Infront. The methods, tools and the stimulus in content terms “from outside” that Infront contributed and tailor fitted to our requirements were a critical factor for success. What impressed us most was the professionalism of the Infront team in gaining an understanding of our complex business model and market environment. Together we were successful in facilitating focused discussions through rigorous but nevertheless flexible moderation and focusing on the essential. We experienced our work together with Infront as professional at all times in a spirit of strong cooperation – Infront was the right partner for us to break completely new ground in a targeted manner!«

»We worked together with Infront in developing and implementing our strategy, as well as on numerous topics concerning operational processes and optimization. We are still deriving inspiration from the combination of creative solutions and pragmatic implementation, commitment in word and deed, and the way we always worked together in a partnership. Collaborating with Infront is fun – and of ultimate importance – so is making Freudenberg IT even more successful.«

Dr. Sebastian Weiß

»Infront succeeded in infusing our business with new digitalization stimulus, with the courage to incorporate viewpoints from other industries and the ability take mechanisms in a technically dominated business and turn them into something new! The Infront team is compelling with its expedient preparation, unpretentious but targeted execution, and sound follow-up process after our two workshop days. I enjoyed working with Infront, and I am convinced of the positive impact on my business!«

»One of Infront’s great value-adding capabilities is bringing about strategic change processes in an understanding of group organizations. The consistent integration of internal teams enabled them to take the results of the project forward after Infront had left. This combination of targeted intervention and sustainability is what made projects with Infront so valuable for me.«

»Together with eprimo employees, the Infront team was able to set up a fully-fledged innovation lab based on the design thinking approach within the space of a few weeks. In parallel with the quick development of innovative ideas and the timely testing of prototypes, eprimo employees were trained in topics and methods. Along with methodological competence and pragmatic ability to build on what is there, the consultants’ talent for communication and their skill in integrating contributed to enabling the lab to develop outside everyday business while nevertheless being accepted by our staff and actively used. A number of practically useful findings, as well as tested prototypes were available as early as three months after the development phase.«
