DE group Shapes the Future of Knowledge: Tackling the Skills Shortage with Digital Solutions

In light of demographic shifts and the looming loss of specialized knowledge, the DE group is positioning itself as a driving force for digital knowledge transfer.

The core problem is familiar in many businesses: valuable process knowledge often exists only in the minds of long-term employees. When they leave the company, this know-how is irretrievably lost. Traditional documentation methods are often too time-consuming and quickly become outdated.

This is where the DE group comes in with its innovative platform, DE-instruct. The solution automatically transforms simple smartphone recordings of work processes into illustrated step-by-step instructions. This ensures that expert knowledge is preserved in a practical, simple, and sustainable way within daily operations.

“Digitalization should empower people, not replace them,” emphasizes Friedrich Steininger, CEO of the DE group. “Small and medium-sized enterprises, in particular, need pragmatic solutions that integrate seamlessly into their daily routines and deliver immediate benefits.”

This commitment extends beyond mere software development. By promoting initiatives like BoomerZ, the DE group brings together experienced professionals and emerging talents to secure knowledge transfer for the future and sustainably strengthen the entire economic region.
