Ludwigsburg – In order to support companies even better in face of the challenges of the digital transformation, MHP and LeanIX, a provider of high-performance and lean software for Enterprise Architecture Management (EAM), have agreed on a strategic partnership. The aim of this cooperation is to offer companies a holistic EAM solution: In addition to the comprehensive, long-term expertise in the management of complex enterprise architectures in the mobility and manufacturing environment, MHP will contribute end-to-end consulting competence. From the young and currently dynamically growing company LeanIX will come the specific SaaS-Suite, which is suitable for the cooperative management of newly established landscapes that have grown over the years.
With their offer, the two partners address a central challenge facing many companies: In the course of digitalization, the economy and society are changing at great speed – including the ways in which people work together. At the same time, the complexity of IT is constantly increasing. The driving forces for this are, firstly, continually new digital technologies, ranging from small services to the changeover to SAP S/4 HANA. Secondly, regulatory requirements have a considerable effect on IT. In order to master the complexity, and to shape the enterprise architecture strategically, effectively and efficiently, a radical architectural way of thinking both within and outside of IT is the central factor for success.
André Christ, founder and Managing Director of LeanIX: "Companies from the mobility and manufacturing sectors today face major challenges with regard to the transformation of IT and the business models. They must reduce costs, improve their risk management and drive innovation. The combination of LeanIX and MHP offers companies a holistic approach to solutions in order to deal with these challenges and increase competitiveness."
Gordon Hunt, Associated Partner at MHP and Enterprise Architect: "The partnership between LeanIX and MHP will open up unique opportunities for companies. With us, they can rely both on independent and holistic architectural consulting and on extensive, software-focused specialist competence. The SaaS solution from LeanIX is ideal for meeting the current demands for lean architectural management and making the complex correlations transparent. I am delighted to have the opportunity to support companies with their digital transformation."
