Our Partners and Cooperations

A special kind of relationship connects BHC with PROSTEP AG! Since PROSTEP acquired a majority stake in BHC in February 2019, the two companies have been closely linked and have been pooling their expertise in various areas.

Dr. Bernd Paetzold, CEO of PROSTEP AG:
“The combination of our comprehensive experience in the fields of PLM consulting, system integration, migration, and collaboration with BHC’s specialized expertise in the area of E/E and software development offers our customers significant advantages in digitizing their business processes. We are now truly 100% PLM!”

Philipp Hasenäcker, CEO of BHC GmbH (formerly Bartscher & Hasenäcker Consulting GmbH):
“Even before the majority stake acquisition, we had already worked side by side for years in large customer projects, so we have a well-established and trust-based relationship. The opportunity to now fully utilize the competence spectrum and network of PROSTEP AG is an exceptional chance for BHC and strengthens us as a small consulting firm sustainably!”
