Industrial software platforms · since 1996

We deliver the continuity that industrial software demands.

Industrial software depends on continuity. As a business-critical system it has to run reliably for years on end, and at the same time keep pace technologically and absorb new requirements.

That is why NeoGeo puts one permanent, experienced team at your side for the entire life of your platform: from the first idea and the build, through running it in production, to the extensions that come years later.

The same people know your software, understand your requirements and own it for the long term. They give you straight advice, run the platform in production and respond fast — and they very often deliver what others had written off as impossible.

We call this approach Platform Stewardship. And it is why many of our customers have placed their trust in us for decades.

  • Since 1996 · 300+ projects for 100+ customers: energy, logistics, industry, automotive, finance
  • 24 years of successful operation and evolution of a core software platform in the energy sector

We put AI into production

Several recent studies show that between 70% and 90% of AI pilots never make it into production. What makes the difference is clean data structures, seamless integration with existing systems and governance to match. That is exactly what we have been doing for 30 years.

Here is how we put AI to work in your business:

Software development

AI agents support every phase of our development process, from requirements analysis through testing to documentation. What does that mean for you? Shorter delivery times and consistently higher quality, with full traceability throughout.

Optimized business processes

In our clients' operations, specialized AI agents review incoming documents and schedule orders. They monitor telemetry and prepare decisions.

Governance built into the system

We build governance into the architecture instead of documenting it afterwards. Logging, permissions, human-in-the-loop checkpoints and audit trails ship as part of the system.

Sovereign · EU-hosted

Full data sovereignty

We run AI systems in your own infrastructure or hosted in the EU. You keep full sovereignty over your data.

From idea to finished solution

How we work together

You get consulting, development and operations from a single team. Platform Stewardship shapes the way we work: we give you an honest assessment, build to fit your business and keep the result running in production. And time and again we deliver what others had written off as impossible.

  1. Free initial consultation

    A free, no-obligation conversation in which we get to know your company, your systems and the challenge that actually needs solving. Then we tell you straight whether and how we can help.

  2. Analysis & design

    Now we look closely at processes, data and the system landscape that has grown over the years. What comes out of it is a solid proposal: a clear architecture recommendation and a transparent, fully costed estimate, available on request as a fixed-price assessment within a few days.

  3. Rapid prototyping

    We use AI to make your solution tangible fast: a working prototype at a fixed price, so you can base your decisions on something real before expensive iteration loops set in.

  4. Development & integration

    We integrate the solution into your existing IT in a fully auditable way. State-of-the-art AI techniques and agent-based development let us guarantee a fast time to market while keeping costs down.

  5. Handover & ongoing development

    You receive a fully operational system with complete documentation and, if you want one, a partner who stays at your side. We train your team, take ongoing development off your hands or run the system for you end to end.

Platform Stewardship for lasting success

The people who build your software usually hand it over at go-live and move on to the next project. The hard-won system knowledge leaves with them. Every release after that carries a little more risk, until nobody can say with any confidence how the platform your entire business runs on actually works.

We do it differently.

We do not just build and hand over. Platform Stewardship at NeoGeo means this: the same senior development team that designs your custom software platform also runs and scales it, for years and decades if that is what you want.

Continuity, and substance behind it.

What you get is a system that stays stable, secure and low-maintenance, and a partner who takes ownership of the long-term success of your IT infrastructure.

Platform Stewardship is the reason one energy operations platform ran with us for 24 years without losing stability, and the reason our customers pick up the phone and call us instead of feeding an anonymous ticket system.

Success stories

For 30 years our platforms have kept our customers ahead of their competition

Strict NDAs mean we present our successes anonymously. For us, discretion is the foundation of a genuine partnership.

Leading European manufacturer of transport solutions 2019–present

Cloud-native IoT and telematics data platform

for more than 150,000 connected vehicles with real-time fleet management and AI-powered services

From legacy system to future-proof infrastructure: an ageing telematics platform faced acute scaling and stability risks, so we rebuilt it from the ground up as a cloud-native IoT platform and migrated it in record time: just 14 months. Ever since, we have secured, operated and continuously evolved the system, guided by our Platform Stewardship philosophy.

Hybrid IoT and operations platform

for industrial heat and energy supply with millions of sensors under KRITIS requirements

Replacing decentralized shadow IT with a radically connected IoT platform: what began in 1999 as a visionary idea today helps secure the energy supply for millions of people. Because off-the-shelf software could not meet requirements this extreme, we built a custom platform and operated and evolved it for 24 years as Platform Stewards.
