Zühlke announces partnership with Makersite: Sustainable business processes that do more with less

Zühlke Group announces a key partnership with Markersite, a leading AI-powered product lifecycle intelligence platform known for its holistic approach to managing sustainability, cost, and compliance.

Accelerate Sustainable Business with Zühlke & Makersite Partnership

Companies face challenges in quickly launching new products and meeting ESG regulatory demands, which are time-consuming and costly. Data is scattered across various sources, making collection and sharing largely manual. Evolving regulations require linking this information with hard-to-access ESG data. Automation and intelligent data management could solve this, but many companies lack the necessary expertise and capabilities. 

This is where Zühlke and Makersite’s offer comes in. With strong data management foundations, scalability for productivity, and machine intelligence solutions, organizations can accelerate business processes across their product portfolios, reduce regulatory compliance costs, speed up time-to-market, and be better prepared for future needs. This includes net-zero strategies, business model innovation as well as transformations towards circular economy.

“It’s a privilege to partner with a company as forward-thinking as Zühlke,” said Makersite CEO Neil D’Souza. “The solution we’ve created at Makersite is designed to bring about a better future for all, and this partnership is a natural step on that path. As Zühlke themselves say, technology redefines possibilities and shapes a more sustainable future. That’s what we’re doing here.”
