TOP 100 award
KPS is amongst the TOP 100 innovation leaders in 2018
Munich, July 12, 2018. The TOP 100 competition presented awards to the most innovative German small and medium-sized companies for the 25th time. KPS AG was named amongst these innovation leaders this year. The management consultancy is an essential partner in digital transformation and process optimization.
Whether it is independent high-street retailers or major e-commerce operators, customers today expect outstanding digital marketing, optimal sales processes, the fulfilment of service claims and a unique brand experience. This requires future-oriented, end-to-end technologies which the TOP 100 company KPS implements through its Rapid Transformation(R) method. This innovative and fast way of carrying out projects - from the initial concept to strategy development and implementation - takes just a few months.
Impressive innovation in consultancy

We support our customers with innovative solutions and modern technologies which simplify processes and make customers happier." KPS's Innovation Campus also provides it with a platform for the exchange of all employees across departments and locations.
