Cegeka acquires Swiss industry specialist Lean Projects

Cegeka has acquired Lean Projects, a Swiss software company that provides ERP solutions for the print and packaging industry using Microsoft Dynamics 365. 

The deal expands Cegeka's industry-specific software offerings and supports its international growth plans, according to the companies. Together, the companies aim to strengthen their presence in the global print and packaging market and become a leading provider of Microsoft-based business applications for the industry.

The acquisition supports Cegeka's strategy of developing industry-specific solutions built on D365. After expanding into areas such as pharmaceuticals and life sciences, the company is now strengthening its offerings for print and packaging manufacturers through Lean Projects, the companies said.

Cegeka and Lean Projects have worked together on international projects for several years. Through that partnership, the companies found they share a similar approach, focusing on the unique needs and processes of specific industries rather than offering one-size-fits-all software, the companies noted.
