enso designs mechatronics and software
enso stands for engineered software. We support you in the design of innovative high-tech products. We harmonize business objectives and technical possibilities. We specialize in requirements management, system specification, system architecture and project management. We work closely with interaction designers, development service providers and quality managers. We support projects in the early stages or bring them back on track when problems arise. We work in and on the system development process.
Goals
Build products that perform their tasks effectively. That stand out through attractive and well thought-out operation. That prove themselves through a clear internal structure. That have fewer rather than more functions. That are fun to use!
Services
We specify systems with a view to their use and their technical environment. We advise on development processes and infrastructure. We know methods, have practical experience and assume responsibility, also as interim managers.
Methods
We focus on use cases, system architecture, benefits and costs. We understand and believe in agile projects: Comprehensible interim results create the conditions for continuous and targeted improvement. We employ innovative tooling based on property graphs that is made available as open source software.
Voluntary Projects
Since 2014 we are leading a project improve collaboration in the end-to end product lifecycle: The Specification Integration Facility (SpecIF) is an initiative to integrate partial models from different sources and notations to obtain an overaching property graph.
- Specification Integration Facility (SpecIF) with
- schema and constraints as well as
- a reference implementation: SpecIF Model-Integrator and Editor
are provided as open source contributions. Tutorials and examples are available.
Since 2024 we are contributing to CASCaDE, a project to prepare an OMG standard supporting collaboration in the product lifecycle. A graph-native approach is used to integrate product information from various sources in established data formats such as ReqIF, SysML v1/v2, STEP, FMI/SSP and others.
Values
We believe in partnership, cooperation, commitment and quality.
