Overview

TIP Technik und Informatik Partner GmbH is an Austrian IT services and software company headquartered in Dornbirn, Vorarlberg. Founded on 1 May 1991 by Anton Steurer with a team of four, the company has grown into a mid-sized regional provider that operates in a global market. It develops and supports complete software and hardware solutions for manufacturing, trading and service companies, and today serves customers across Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Germany, Italy and the Czech Republic. The company's portfolio is organised around the IT360 brand, which covers managed IT services and packages, cloud and hybrid IT, server and infrastructure, security and monitoring, telephony and meeting solutions, and workplace equipment. Its software business is split into two strategic fields: HR360, focused on human-resources software, and DM360, focused on document management. TIP also runs its own research and development department, established in 2009. TIP has been employee-led since 1 September 2021, when the company was converted from TIP Technik und Informatik Partner GmbH into TIP Technik und Informatik Partner GmbH & Co KG in order to preserve its employee-managed structure. The company remains based at its Bildgasse 18a site in Dornbirn, which it has occupied since 2005. It has received regional recognition, including the 'Säulen der Wirtschaft' award in 2011 as Vorarlberg's best service company in the category up to 100 employees. With around 50 employees as of 2022, TIP positions itself as a dependable regional partner for businesses that want to outsource or supplement their IT operations, offering 360-degree support, helpdesk, outsourcing, server and client maintenance, hardware maintenance and documentation.

History

TIP Technik und Informatik Partner GmbH was founded on 1 May 1991 by Anton Steurer in Dornbirn, Vorarlberg, Austria. The initial team consisted of four employees and focused on software and hardware from the outset. The company grew steadily through the 1990s: by 1993 it had 10 employees, and by 1999 the team had quadrupled to 20 employees within eight years. In 2003 the company decided to construct a new company building, and in 2005 it moved into the new premises at Bildgasse in Dornbirn. In 2009 TIP started its own R&D department and split its software division into two strategic business fields: HR360 and DM360. In 2011 the company received the 'Säulen der Wirtschaft' award as the best service company in Vorarlberg in the category up to 100 employees. The company building was expanded in 2014. By 2017 TIP had 45 employees working in the markets of Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Germany, Italy and the Czech Republic. In 2020 there was a change in management: Anton Steurer handed over the management of TIP Technik und Informatik Partner GmbH to Rainer Jochum. In 2021, to remain an employee-led company, the firm was converted from TIP Technik und Informatik Partner GmbH into TIP Technik und Informatik Partner GmbH & Co KG effective 1 September 2021. The company stated that nothing changed regarding its headquarters, contacts, management, services or products. By 2022 the company had 50 employees. Today TIP operates as a mid-sized regional company in a global market, providing complete software and hardware solutions for manufacturing, trading and service companies. Its service portfolio is marketed under the IT360 umbrella, covering managed services, cloud and hybrid IT, server and infrastructure, security and monitoring, telephony and meeting solutions, and workplace equipment.
