We are pleased to inform you that D&TS GmbH has been officially recognized as a research-based company by the BSFZ ( Bescheinigungsstelle Forschungszulage).

Receiving the coveted BSFZ seal of approval is an impressive confirmation of our continuous commitment to technological innovation and industrial development. This means that we meet the requirements of Section 2 (1) to (3) of the Research Allowance Act (FZulG) and can now officially operate as a research company.

About the “ClassCOCKPIT SEARCH” project

The core of the award is our funded research project “ClassCOCKPIT SEARCH”. The aim of this project is to significantly improve the search functionality for material data in the industry by using state-of-the-art technologies.

The focus is on intelligent algorithms and AI-supported processes that enable highly precise and efficient management and classification of material master data.

The flexibility of the system is particularly noteworthy: product data can be processed in ClassCOCKPIT both with and without prior classification. This openness ensures maximum adaptability to different company requirements and data situations.

Thanks to the intelligent use of artificial intelligence, classification is fully automated if required – a real milestone in data-driven process optimization.

What does this mean for our customers?

Official recognition as a research company not only benefits us, but also offers our customers numerous specific added values:

  • Technological leadership: as a research-based company, we continuously develop new solutions based on current scientific standards. Our customers benefit early on from innovations that would otherwise not be widely available until later.
  • Direct benefits for customer projects: Thanks to the research allowance, innovative developments can be realized more efficiently and transferred into practice more quickly. This means shorter project times, lower development costs and a faster return on investement for our customers.
  • Future-proof: Our customers benefit from a state-of-the-art system landscape that keeps pace with tomorrow’s requirements today.
