Guest article by Katrin Saup, arsmedium – Implementing new business software such as BCS is much more than just a technical project. In this case study, Katrin Saup uses the introduction of BCS at arsmedium to show how process management, clear leadership, and the consistent involvement of employees determine success or failure. Without a test phase, but with a clear vision, arsmedium introduced BCS from Projektron in a big bang go-live with iterative organizational development. An honest report on change, responsibility, and the human side of digital transformation.

Who hasn't experienced it? You start a new project full of enthusiasm and confidence. The planning has already been successfully completed, the project launch went extremely well and everyone involved is full of enthusiasm and drive. But over time, the mood begins to change and with it the entire project. Work processes go awry as planned, communication becomes rougher and more confusing, collaboration starts to break down. The project threatens to fail. The reasons for the failure of a project can be very diverse, but there are recurring problems. Find out what the 9 most common reasons for project failure are and what you can do about them.

As standardized approaches, project management methods provide guidance for the planning, execution and controlling of projects. PRINCE2 is a process-oriented method that can be scaled and puts the benefits of a project at the center of project management. Our technical article offers an introduction to the basic idea, strengths and weaknesses of the PRINCE2 method.

Starting this year, all Projektron employees have the opportunity to use one workday for social engagement. Initial experiences show that the social day is effective—it creates encounters, enables participation, and supports initiatives that strengthen our society.

On Thursday, December 4, Projektron celebrated its 2025 Christmas party at Alice Rooftop with around 100 participants. In a festive atmosphere above the rooftops of Berlin, the focus was on conversation, games, and sharing moments together to mark the end of the year.

This year, Projektron once again celebrated the festive season in a creative and colorful way: three Christmas craft activities brought colleagues and their families together to paint ceramics, make chocolate, and bind Advent wreaths. Here is a look back at some special moments full of inspiration, community, and pre-Christmas spirit.

Artificial intelligence is not only changing the way we develop software, it is also changing the way we use software. For BCS, our project management and ERP software, this means that AI should make everyday work noticeably easier, reduce routine tasks, guide users to answers more quickly, and increase internal efficiency. While many AI initiatives focus on one-off solutions or experimental prototypes, Projektron pursues a systematic, long-term approach.
