Our Relationship

Our connection with EPLAN goes back to its foundation. We were closely engaged in the company’s initial move to North America, as well as its subsequent expansion in the US, Canada and Mexico. At times, TransAdvantage partners provided first hand executive management support, served on the company’s US Board of Directors, and we acted as direct conduit between the parent organization in Germany and the NA operations. We served on, and for a term, chaired the parent company’s customer advisory board.

We were engaged in direct interface with key customers, incl. the listing of EPLAN as the exclusive electrical engineering CAE solution at GM, Rockwell Automation and others. TransAdvantage assisted strategic assessments, positioning and channel development. We provided a wide variety of marketing communication services and actively engaged in recruiting of management and sales personnel, as well as general human resource, financial and administrative management support.

We would be delighted to discuss how our extensive work with this client and its industry may benefit you, while naturally guarding our client’s confidentiality.
