CIM Aachen GmbH

Established in 1987, CIM Aachen GmbH provides both standard and tailor-made software for electronic business. And ever since, CIM Aachen GmbH has been engaged in creating national and international standards for the manufacturing industry.

Our services comprise the design and implementation of Internet- or Intranet- applications which enable efficient e-commerce. As pure PC-software still has an edge over web-enabled software, the design of CD ROM solutions still our offer for sales support software.
The competitive advantage of CIM Aachen GmbH as solution provider are many years of experience with technical products, gained in numerous projects in different industries. Apart from our programmers and IT-experts, more than 50% of our staff are engineers (manufacturing, automotive design, electrical/electronics). With this comes the necessary technological background to understand our customer's business. Otherwise it would have been impossible for CIM Aachen GmbH to cooperate with the metal cutting industry to create an open standard for the description of metal cutting tools.

This unique combination of engineering knowledge and programming skills manifests itself in focused e- business platforms, e-shops or digital catalogs. Beyond the marketing and sales perspective of the product representation, CIM's software packages add real value for our customer's technical staff. CIM's core competence enables the end user to really search for a problem solution. All the end user has to do is to specify the problem, not the solution.

The underlying technologies of CIM's main product line CIMSOURCE was turned into a tool box of software for industrial applications, which combines up-to-date Internet-technologies with leading edge database engineering. Leading manufacturers of metal cutting tools rely on CIM's technologies in the same way as advanced industrial enterprises do in their metal cutting.
