The best schedule comes from the people who see it every day.
infoBoard came out of the shop floor, not a textbook. We build software for the people who walk into the plant every morning. They want to know by the evening that every order has its place. That attitude has carried us since 2007.

Scheduling is not an administrative task. It decides whether a plant runs.
A rush order comes in, an employee calls in sick, a machine breaks down. What counts at that moment is not what sits deep in the system. It is whether someone sees immediately what that means for the rest of the week.
That is exactly what we built infoBoard for. Not as another module that disappears inside the ERP, but as a tool that makes scheduling visible — for everyone who works with it.
This conviction is older than the software. It comes from the magnetic planning board on the wall of the plant: one picture everyone understands at once. That is what we wanted to keep when we digitized it in 2007.
Four convictions that shape every decision we make.
No mission-statement slide for the intranet. Just what our customers experience with us every day.
Everyone owns the schedule, not just the planner
What everyone can see, everyone can stand behind. That is why infoBoard shows the same status on every screen — from the shop floor to the management office. Knowledge that sits in one person's head helps nobody.
Pragmatism before perfection
infoBoard runs on the infrastructure you already have — no cloud requirement, no new dependencies. We solve the problem in front of you, not the one that looks good in a glossy brochure.
Open, not locked in
Start without an ERP and integrate one later, or use yours from day one. Your data stays your data. We do not build dead ends that are expensive to get out of.
Visible fast, useful right away
A planning board that only pays off after six months of project work is not a planning board. infoBoard is installed in half a day and shows you where your bottlenecks are from the first week.
A family-owned company thinks in decades, not quarters.
infoBoard Europe is owner-led. There is no investor above us who wants to see growth every quarter. That changes how we decide.
We build software that still runs in ten years — and customers who have scheduled with us for over a decade prove the point. Updates come because they make sense, not because a release calendar demands them.
And when you call, you do not land in a hold queue on another continent. You reach people in Hamburg who know your setup.
You do not notice good scheduling in the software. You notice it in the plant.
Less idle time, more throughput
When every order finds the right slot immediately, machines stand still less often and employees do not wait for the next instruction. The capacity you already have suddenly goes further than you thought.
Costs fall because routes get shorter
Group similar orders, cut setup times, avoid overtime — not through pressure, but through a sequence that works out. Companies like Hermle AG report up to 30% less setup time.
Deadlines that hold
Know your capacity and you promise realistic delivery dates — and keep them. Your customer notices in the end. And comes back.
