Since more than 20 years the team of ia GmbH is developing innovative solutions in the scope of waste management and municipal management. Beside the continous development of our engineering services, our intention is to structure and network our knowledge as well as the knowldege of our partners and clients. The media internet enables us to think in completely new dimensions. Longest our "virtual community" ForumZ is used by municipal authorities as an instrument to optimise their business processes. To combine knowledge resources out of science and the publishing sector in our professional portal our partner use software, customer access and billing together. This connection of knowledge management and technical expertise is shown in both fields of activity of the ia GmbH. In the sector Knowledge Management we support clients to use their dearly established knowledge more efficiently. Using our technical background, we help to transfer knowledge into a structured form usable for decision processes. In the sector Engineering we are your partner for problem solutions on municipal and international waste management aspects. The emphasis of our work is concentrated on the technical-economic controlling.
