Research Industrial Systems Engineering

The Research Industrial Systems Engineering GmbH (RISE as in "sun-rise") is an international IT consulting, software development and service company. RISE was created as a spin-off of the TU Vienna and concentrated exceptional "peopleware". The key players of the team have gained more than 25 years experience in IT operations, software development... and IT project management. RISE planned, managed and guided some of the most challenging IT projects in Austria and other countries, including the establishment of the Austrian e-card infrastructure (2.5 years implementation period, completed in time&budget). Another outstanding project was the first successful NFC-VDV implementation in Europe for mobilkom and ÖBB in 2005, the at that time biggest IT project in Europe with a 2 billion € total budget. Furthermore, RISE introduced a health and education network in Qatar and was involved in designing an eGovernement strategy for an African country. Besides these challenges in the public sector, RISE was significantly involved in various industrial projects. However, the professional presentation of these projects is left to our customers and will not be used as a reference. The portfolio of our references ranges from the sectors of banking and finance, mobile communications, telecommunications, business information systems, enterprise IT, security and environmental topics over technological fields of software engineering, Web engineering, mobile engineering, usability engineering, interactive systems, IT security, test automation and network technology. Needless to say, as a company trained in "new technologies" we also build highly stressable prototypes in the field of HW with HW-close software and conduct the piloting of reference systems for large-scale projects that build upon. To provide an example, RISE developed card readers (hardware and software) for all medical practices in Austria. We have been maintaining the software of these more than 10.000 card readers for about 10 years. Due to our skills, profile and ...Read More
