Every company has projects. But many fail, especially when it comes to digital transformation. In recent weeks, we have had many interesting discussions and have been able to combine some of our impressions with our experience.

In a lot of companies, the question: "Should we optimize our processes?" Arises. “Why? We're doing great” – many have heard this response before. However, not all structures and processes remain consistently productive and beneficial to the company.

Since April 1, it has been possible to apply for an interesting subsidy: investment subsidies in the field of cybersecurity. Investment projects in the field of IT and cybersecurity are eligible for funding. This includes hardware and software as well as service hours. It is important that the project involves a new investment that must be capitalized. Interestingly, this subsidy also covers the running costs for licences for IT security solutions. Especially in the current situation, where attacks are becoming more frequent, it makes a lot of sense to invest in IT security. We therefore advise everyone to apply for this subsidy! These projects must have a monetary scope of €2,000–50,000. Up to 40% of the costs are covered. We can discuss the possibilities in a short conversation and help with the submission. 

Ayear ago, we went to the notary to sign all the documents for the founding of A-SQUARE. At that time, we were convinced that it would take at least three years to become completely independent. Where are we today?

Due to a growing number of employees and an expanding software landscape, appropriate support is essential. This results in an increasing number of tickets.

In our projects we are constantly confronted with the question of what an internal control system (ICS) is and where it is used. This article provides a brief explanation. An ICS is required to monitor and control all legal and regulatory requirements.

In recent months and years in particular, the so-called Digital transformation (colloquially: digitization) has experienced an enormous upswing. This upswing can be observed in all industries.

Digitalization is no longer viewed by many companies as a finite project, but rather as an ongoing process. Demonstrably, numerous tasks function more efficiently and swiftly in digital form.
