What is in favour of INFORM
… for starting a career and
as long term career opportunity?

1. The challenge of "intelligent" computer systems
Instead of traditional information systems, we supply optimisation systems, which are able to make real decisions using operations research and fuzzy logic. This differentiates INFORM form the broad field of the software industry.

2. The challenge of system installation
Within the framework of turnkey projects it is important to match system logic exactly to specific individual requirements. Co-operation with the team of the customer is a key issue: Listening, enquiring, understanding, filtering the core aspects, developing own thoughts, developing solutions, taking part in discussions and finally convincing properly.

3. On the one hand the opportunity to work in a team
and immediately for world-class companies: Air France, Audi, Bayer, BMW, Bosch, British Airways, DaimlerChrysler, Hafen Hamburg, Lufthansa, Meyer Werft, Qantas, Rhenus, Schweizer Post, Siemens, ThyssenKrupp Steel, VW, and many more.

On the other hand the security of being well taken care of

You will not end up in the typical "political trench warfare" of large companies. A friendly, tolerant and informal interaction is very important for us!

4. Taking responsibility at an early stage
The internal organisation of INFORM with manageable teams is aimed at delegating the decision making competence as close as possible to the responsible person.

5. Engagement and fun
Even if unconditional engagement towards project success and customer satisfaction obviously enjoys highest priority - work should be fun too! An unusually low personnel turnover for the IT sector of less than 5% says it all!

6. The quality of our work, appreciated by our customers
We always work to achieve actual project success and almost always support the systems for many years afterwards. Project organisation on a partnership basis often results in friendships between colleagues and customer companies. As a "side effect" we quite often win tenders for new projects, despite high prices sometimes, due to convincing references.

7. The quality of our work, acknowledged publicly by independent experts
In 2003 INFORM achieved the first prize of the European Intermodal Association (EIA) for the "best system for the control of container handling in sea harbours"; in 2005 the AJK prize of the German automotive industry for a system for the optimisation of just-in-time delivery; and in 2006 we even were the first recipients of the newly founded company prize of the "Deutsche Gesellschaft für Operations Research (GOR)", for exemplary implementation of scientific research in trend-setting software systems!

8. Innovative software
We ensure our competitiveness with regular new developments, especially with consistent incremental improvement of existing systems. This was lauded by the GOR in awarding the prize. But it is also fun to tackle operational problem situations with original methods.

9. Internationality
Although our focal point is still in Germany and Europe, many of our systems are being used worldwide. Chances for project work in Paris, London, Lisbon, Bologna, Moscow, Washington, Toronto, Mexico, Sao Paulo, Dubai, Bangkok, Singapore, Tokyo, Sydney or Auckland are quite good in a number of business areas. And in Aachen colleagues from almost 30 nations work together. 

10. Growth, financial independence and long term perspectives
INFORM has grown by 25% per year on average since 1985 - for 21 years! And that without becoming dependent on external providers of capital. Instead management and some 50 long term employees are shareholders of the company. Since 1985 some 300 new jobs were created and we aim to expand further in the future.
