Having a platform programmed that increases your efficiency, networks your IT landscape and strengthens your innovative power? Sounds ambitious? With our tailor-made solutions, that's exactly what becomes reality! Together, we will make your company fit for the digital future - with a platform that is perfectly tailored to your needs.
We develop platforms that are precisely tailored to your requirements - modular, flexible and future-proof.
Our platforms are designed to grow with your business and handle increasing requirements with ease.
From initial exploration to design and implementation - we are with you every step of the way.
With modern DevSecOps practices, we ensure a secure and compliant platform architecture.
Platform development - what do you need it for?
A platform forms a central basis for the development and operation of digital products and services. It integrates technical and specialist functions and enables efficient collaboration between cross-functional teams, processes and technologies.
Platforms form the foundation for numerous applications and offer companies a wide range of possibilities:
-
They standardize recurring processes such as databases, logging or rights management, allowing teams to work faster and more efficiently
-
Applications from different teams are brought together to create a harmonious overall experience with a uniform look and feel - for a better user experience.
-
Central functions such as data isolation or build systems reduce redundancies and increase the quality of development.
Platforms provide the basis for flexible license models and enable new business features to be added quickly.

Have your platform programmed by MaibornWolff - your benefits
The decision to place your platform development in the hands of MaibornWolff is an easy one. With our help, you will create a platform that forms the basis for efficiency, innovation and the long-term competitiveness of your company .
How we achieve this
We achieve this by creating modern, scalable platforms that bundle and centralize technical and functional requirements. This opens up a wide range of advantages that our customers have already been able to use successfully in key areas:
Seamless integration
Connects different systems and data sources to form a uniform IT landscape.
Promotion of innovation
Allows your teams to focus on developing new features.
Future security
State-of-the-art technologies make your platform efficient in the long term.
Empowerment of your team
Training and knowledge transfer make your team independent.
Maximum adaptability
Modular design allows extensions without affecting the system.
Holistic support
Support in every project phase by an interdisciplinary team.

The most important success criterion for this machine learning project is that it offers a standardized and scalable solution. This not only takes into account the diversity of our products, but also plants that previously planned manually, and integrates them effectively.

Reasons for platform development: Your platform, our expertise
As long as applications and processes function smoothly, little attention is often paid to the underlying IT landscape. But as soon as integration problems arise, duplicate work steps cost time or the development of new features comes to a standstill, it quickly becomes clear that platform development is urgently needed.
Companies that continue to rely on isolated individual solutions risk wasting valuable resources, working inefficiently and losing competitiveness in the long term.
Here are some typical situations that illustrate the need for platform development:
-
Do you need more than a standard solution?
A platform makes it possible to implement your individual requirements and translate your vision into a sustainable solution. -
Does your existing IT landscape include legacy systems, APIs or third-party solutions?
We ensure that your platform is seamlessly integrated. -
Do you value data protection and compliance?
Our platforms meet the highest requirements and ensure compliance with both regulatory requirements and internal company guidelines. -
Is your company growing and developing?
Our platforms grow with you - thanks to flexible and powerful architectures that optimally prepare you for future challenges.

FAQ: Frequently asked questions about platform development
Can existing systems be integrated into the platform?
Yes, existing systems can be seamlessly integrated into the platform. Our team has extensive experience with the integration of legacy systems, APIs and third-party solutions. We ensure that your IT landscape works efficiently with the new platform - without disrupting ongoing operations.What are the costs of developing a platform?
The costs depend on factors such as existing systems, license and cloud costs, the number of features and existing expertise. We analyze your requirements and create a transparent, individual calculation so that you have clarity about the investment right from the start.
What involvement is expected from my team during development?
Your team will be involved, especially in the initial phase, to define requirements and evaluate existing systems. During development, selective feedback is important to ensure that the platform meets your expectations. However, we take over the majority of the implementation so that your day-to-day business remains as undisturbed as possible.
