Engineering That Pays for Itself
We diagnose the problem, build the solution, and measure success the only way that matters: the value delivered exceeds the cost of the work
Talk to an EngineerEngineering that earns its place.
Most technology partners are good at one thing. A consultancy listens carefully, diagnoses the problem, and delivers a report. A dev shop takes a specification and builds it. Neither is quite right, because the report still needs someone to execute it, and the dev shop builds the wrong thing faster than anyone planned.
Gradion is built differently. We start where any good diagnosis starts: by understanding your business. Where revenue is being left unrealized. Where operational costs are higher than they need to be. Where a technical constraint is blocking something commercially important. Our consultants listen first, and ask the kind of questions that only make sense if you already understand the industry, the margin structure, and what “scaling” actually means for your specific situation.
Then we solve it. Not with a lengthy report and a recommendation to find someone to implement it. With the engineering team that was part of the diagnosis from the beginning.
Our measure of success is straightforward: you earn more or save more than Gradion costs.
That is not a positioning line. It is the standard against which we scope engagements, select where to focus effort, and decide when a project is genuinely done. It is also why most of our longest client relationships started with a single, well-scoped project, one that returned a clear result, and made the next conversation easy.
What that looks like in practice
HomeToGo went from founding to a EUR 1 billion IPO on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange with Gradion as engineering partner for seven years. 50+ production deployments per day. 99.99% uptime. 15 million listings across 60,000+ supply partners. When HomeToGo listed in 2021, they acquired the engineering team outright: 150 engineers across four offices in three countries.
roadsurfer needed a new booking platform. We rebuilt it in 20 days. Revenue doubled within a year.
Vietnam’s largest coffee chain, with 928 outlets across Vietnam, cut procurement costs by 60%, more than $400,000 annually, and saw revenue grow 12% within three months of the engagement.
Senior Aerospace Thailand had a 55% operational efficiency gap against group targets. Four days of on-site diagnosis. A custom dashboard with real-time ERP integration. Efficiency moved from 55% to 95%.
Switzerland’s leading mobile payment app processes 386 million transactions annually across 6 million users. The e-commerce plugin infrastructure we built (a shared SDK core covering Shopware, WooCommerce, and Magento) is what makes that scale maintainable.
