Software development and AI in Neuchâtel: precision and follow-up

In a canton shaped by watchmaking and microtechnology, digital tools as precise as your trades.

Neuchâtel, land of watchmaking and microtechnology

The Canton of Neuchâtel is one of the cradles of Swiss watchmaking. The towns of La Chaux-de-Fonds and Le Locle, listed as UNESCO World Heritage for their watchmaking town planning, bear witness to this. This expertise has given rise to a dense network of microtechnology companies, precision subcontractors and medical technology firms.

The canton also has a university, a university of applied sciences and renowned microtechnology research centres such as CSEM. Alongside industry, many service SMEs drive the local economy: fiduciaries, property management agencies, brokerage firms, medical practices and shops.

The needs of Neuchâtel businesses

Businesses in the region have a culture of precision. They expect the same rigour from their digital tools:

  • Reliable tracking: orders, batches, production steps, quality checks or client files, without duplicate files.
  • Data that flows: an ERP, accounting software, Excel files and an e-mail system that do not talk to each other force people to re-enter the same information.
  • Well-kept documents: procedures, certificates and reports must be found quickly.
  • Fewer administrative tasks: follow-ups, reports and document preparation take up technical teams' time.

For service companies, we also support fiduciaries, real estate and SMEs and shops.

How we work

We start from your actual processes, not from imposed software. A first workshop, at your premises or by video, maps out the steps and the tools in place. We then identify what can be connected, automated or developed, and move forward in short steps, each tested with your teams.

We document what we deliver so that you remain self-sufficient. Access is granted according to each person's role, and every significant change is checked with you before go-live: a natural requirement for companies used to quality control. Our method details this process, and our article on how long a software project takes helps with planning. Whenever possible, data is hosted in Switzerland.

Frequently asked questions

Do you work with industrial companies?

Yes. We develop tracking tools, dashboards and connections between software for industrial SMEs as well as service companies.

Can you connect our existing tools rather than replacing everything?

Yes, it is often the best option. We link your current software and only develop what is genuinely missing.

Yes, we can travel to Neuchâtel, La Chaux-de-Fonds or Le Locle for workshops. Follow-up often takes place by video conference.
