Self-description of the service provider

HMS was founded in 1989 and is a boutique partner for customized software and AI solutions. 

With more than 170 employees across our locations in Heidelberg, Berlin, Ulm, and Düsseldorf, we develop data-driven systems that integrate seamlessly into existing IT landscapes. Our experience is demonstrated by over 1,000 successfully delivered projects.

Our focus lies in the development of tailored software and AI solutions as well as their validation, integration, and operational deployment. We guide companies along their Data-to-Value journey and create applications that are transparent, auditable, and reliably operable over many years.

We are technology-agnostic and develop solutions aligned with our clients’ architectures. At the same time, we partner with leading platform providers such as Microsoft, AWS, Snowflake, StackIT, Palantir, and Dataiku. This combination enables us to integrate modern technologies seamlessly and build systems that are scalable and future-ready.

Our project teams are interdisciplinary, take full ownership of the entire solution, and work closely with our clients. Many of our client relationships span several years and are built on quality, reliability, and transparency. An independent survey by BARC confirmed a 100% recommendation rate.

The guiding principles of our work are:

  • Integrity: Reliable, transparent, and well-documented results.
  • Excellence: Methodically sound and technically robust solutions with measurable impact.
  • Specialization: Deep expertise in data, AI, and software engineering.
  • Knowledge transfer: Bridging technological expertise and domain context.

This is how we create solutions that are scalable, ensure secure operations, and deliver lasting value.

What do you like best?

In unserem Projekt war eine sehr gute Arbeitsatmosphäre. HMS hat nicht einfach nur stumpf Anforderungen entgegengenommen und abgearbeitet, sondern immer mitgedacht, wie sich diese Anforderungen auf den Kunden und die Operationalisierung auswirken und entsprechend auch Verbesserungen vorgeschlagen.

Sehr akademisch. Viele Projekte brauchen auch viele sehr gute pragmatische Programmierer.

Die Anforderungen vorher möglichst klar und deutlich haben, damit HMS mehr Zeit zum programmieren hat.

Gute Teamarbeit.
