Impress Software, established in 1996 and headquartered in Hannover, Germany, provides specialized integration applications for complex business processes. The company was founded by Marc Elmhorst. The firm focuses on developing software that bridges critical enterprise systems, such as SAP, PeopleSoft, Microsoft Project, Primavera, and ESRI's ArcGIS. This focus allows clients in asset- and project-intensive industries to synchronize data and streamline operations.
The company's business model revolves around providing packaged integration applications, which are pre-built solutions designed to address specific, high-demand integration scenarios. This approach contrasts with custom-built integrations, aiming to offer a more cost-effective and faster deployment. Impress Software serves a global clientele of large enterprises in sectors like utilities, oil and gas, chemical, engineering, construction, and aerospace and defense. Notable clients have included organizations such as AOL, BP, and the US Army. Revenue is generated through the sale and support of these packaged software products. On September 17, 2008, the company was acquired by Trinovis.
Impress Software offers two main product lines: Impress for EPM (Enterprise Project Management) and Impress for GIS (Geographic Information System). Impress for EPM ensures consistency and accuracy of information between ERP systems like SAP and project management tools such as Microsoft Project or Primavera. This integration helps organizations manage large-scale initiatives like plant turnarounds and capital projects by synchronizing planning data, resources, and project status in real-time. Impress for GIS bridges SAP with ESRI's ArcGIS, allowing field service organizations to access and manipulate SAP asset data directly from a map interface, thereby improving productivity and decision-making for field operations.
