IT consulting and software development for SMEs in Munich
Escalt is based in Reichertshausen, around 45 kilometres north of Munich. More of our clients come from this region than from any other: industry, healthcare, tax advisory, real estate and skilled trades — in the city and in the surrounding area.
Who we work for in Munich
Escalt's Munich clients are not one industry but a cross-section. What they have in common is that they need IT that works, without wanting an IT department of their own. A selection, all listed with the scope of work on the References page:
- Industry: Hermith GmbH, an international supplier of titanium alloys — IT consulting, IT infrastructure, IT support, website plus SEO & AIO.
- Healthcare: KIOR Health Center in Berg am Laim (multilingual website, online appointment booking, IT support) and the outpatient care service Vitalpflege GmbH.
- Tax advisory: Steuerkanzlei Fuierer and Cosmotax Steuerberatungsgesellschaft — IT consulting and websites, for Cosmotax trilingual for its foreign clients.
- Real estate: Haberstumpf Immobilien — IT consulting, website and IT support.
In the surrounding area, they are joined by the plumbing and heating company TEUS Haustechnik in Garching, the sports medicine practice Consports in Unterhaching and Schutin Medical Services in Gräfelfing.
Medical practices and professional firms: what is different here
A large share of our Munich clients are medical practices and healthcare providers as well as tax advisors. Two things apply to them that an IT service provider should say up front:
- No Digitalbonus for the liberal professions. Medical practices, law firms and tax advisory firms — the Freie Berufe, or liberal professions — are excluded from the Digitalbonus Bayern, the Bavarian digitalization grant. A care service or a health centre organised as a GmbH, on the other hand, may be eligible — we clarify that before the quote, not after.
- Professional secrecy and data processing. As a rule, Escalt processes data only within the EU and the EEA (German terms and conditions, § 11.3). That is the precondition for practices and professional firms to be able to use external development at all.
Multilingual, because Munich is international
Several Munich clients serve an international clientele: KIOR with a multilingual practice team, Cosmotax with foreign corporate and private clients, Schutin Medical Services with patients from abroad. Escalt itself works in German, English, Russian and Ukrainian — so we do not build websites and assistants in several languages as an add-on, but out of habit.
AI consulting and AI agents for Munich SMEs
For SMEs in Munich we recommend not starting AI with a big project, but with one task that costs time every week. AI consulting first clarifies whether that is worthwhile and where — before anything is bought. Where it is, an AI agent takes over the task: answering inquiries, merging data, producing reports.
An example from the surrounding area: at TEUS Haustechnik in Garching, orders now come in through the website, and bookkeeping and new-customer acquisition run automatically.
What we take on for Munich companies
The focus here is on IT consulting and ongoing IT support, websites with appointment booking and multiple languages, and AI agents that pre-sort or answer inquiries. Larger projects — custom software or the replacement of a legacy system — we manage from Reichertshausen and implement with our development partners in the EU.
As a rule, we work with our clients in person, and Munich is quickly reached from Reichertshausen. In between, we coordinate by phone or video.
Digitalbonus Bayern: up to 50% subsidy
The Digitalbonus Bayern programme funds digitalization projects of small commercial enterprises — fewer than 50 employees, no more than 10 million euros in annual turnover or balance sheet total, a place of business in Bavaria — with up to 50% of the eligible costs: up to 7,500 euros with Digitalbonus Standard and up to 30,000 euros with Digitalbonus Plus. Projects with less than 4,000 euros of eligible costs are excluded. In the initial consultation, Escalt checks whether your project qualifies and helps you prepare the application. The company must submit the application itself via its ELSTER business account — that is a requirement of the programme. Important: the project must not have started yet; a binding order already counts as a start.
Frequently asked questions from Munich
Will you come to us in Munich?
Yes. Escalt is based in Reichertshausen, around 45 kilometres north of Munich. As a rule, we work with Munich clients in person — kick-off meetings, workshops, work on the IT infrastructure and ongoing coordination; in between also by phone or video.
Do you also work for medical practices and tax firms?
Yes, a large share of our Munich clients come from healthcare and tax advisory. Important to know in advance: the liberal professions are excluded from the Digitalbonus Bayern. At Escalt, data processing stays within the EU as a rule, which is a precondition for professionals bound by professional secrecy.
Do you also provide ongoing IT support?
Yes. For several Munich clients, Escalt also looks after day-to-day operations once everything is set up — for example at Hermith, KIOR, Consports and Haberstumpf Immobilien.
Which authority processes the Digitalbonus application for Munich?
The approving authority for companies in Upper Bavaria is the Regierung von Oberbayern, the district government of Upper Bavaria. The company submits the application itself via its ELSTER business account (the German tax authorities' online portal); Escalt helps prepare the content.
Can you build a multilingual website?
Yes. Escalt works in German, English, Russian and Ukrainian and has already built multilingual websites for Munich clients, including KIOR Health Center and Cosmotax.
Do you also offer AI consulting in Munich?
Yes. AI consulting usually takes place in person at your premises; from Reichertshausen to Munich it is around 45 kilometres. It starts with the question of whether and where AI is worthwhile in your business — we give a reliable figure after the initial consultation, not before.
