We are the “2” in B2B
PONTON has been working as an IT service provider since the year 2001. Our slogan is “We are the 2 in B2B”, which means we help our clients in standardising market processes to reduce the effort for cooperation and data exchange in their respective markets.
Software is in our DNA
Foremost, PONTON’s people are software people. We design and develop B2B integration software. After process standardisation and implementation, we are available as service provider operating B2B integration infrastructures and platforms. And we take care of keeping them in synch with our users’ needs. We have been providing these services already over decades – within our support relationships, there are clients with contact persons in the 4th generation while on the PONTON side, there have been the same individuals of our supporting team available all the time.
Based in Hamburg, we are active all over Europe
PONTON’s traditional regional scope is Europe. We have started here with papiNet and most of our over 400 clients are Europeans. Nevertheless we are also used to support clients in overseas as many of our European clients operate their IT systems in the US or in Asia.
We are focused on the energy sector
PONTON is a renowned player in the energy sector. Most of our clients are platform operators, energy trading organisations or grid operators. We contribute to the sector with innovations in areas such as post-deal processing, decentralised energy trading, developing data analytics systems for trade surveillance, and B2B solutions for electricity grid operators (DSOs and TSOs).
B2B integration beyond the energy sector
Beyond the energy sector, we contribute our competence in B2B integration to various industries. Our clients are producers and traders of industrial goods, public administrations and financial institutions. Mostly our role is to transfer our B2B integration knowledge to partners and customers in order to support business communities in achieving a higher level of interoperability.
Innovation is our recipe of success
PONTON is an inventor. If we see an opportunity in innovation we take this chance. The eTM service, Enerchain and WRMHL are recognised as highly innovative developments. The potential of WRMHL is endless and we are seeking partners here to unlock opportunities world-wide together.
