K&P Computer increases annual result by 17.4 percent

Karl-Peter Münkel, CEO

Wiesbaden, May 14, 2019 +++ K&P Computer Service- und Vertriebs-GmbH, headquartered in Wiesbaden, increased its profit by 17.4% in 2018 compared to the previous year. Turnover in the Hardware Maintenance division increased by 12.4%. In the Managed Services segment, revenue growth was as high as 25 percent. The internationally oriented IT system house attributes its strong growth to the continued increase in demand for an external full-service IT service provider that offers more than just standard maintenance across all manufacturers. Comprehensive data center services from a single source are in demand. This also includes preventive measures, such as individual advice on necessary firmware/microcode updates. These updates can also be obtained exclusively from K&P Computer without any detours via the manufacturer. With its portfolio, the Wiesbaden-based company with its own data center covers the entire value chain of a functioning IT infrastructure (from cloud to security – from consulting to maintenance). The direct line to a broad network of manufacturers in combination with more than 30 years of market experience gives customers the freedom to focus on strategic tasks, reduces their communication effort (one contact person for all topics) and lowers costs. In 2018, K&P Computer acquired further well-known companies as customers and also further expanded its international presence. Driving innovation
In the course of digitalization, IT departments are also more in demand than ever to identify and drive innovation opportunities. K&P Computer recognized this development very early on and has adapted to it. In addition to preparing its service organization for digitalization projects, the IT system house has entered into various strategic partnerships, such as with Logicalis, one of the digital pioneers. The K&P in-house exhibition, which took place for the first time in September 2018, was also held under the motto “Digitalization as an opportunity for the future”. Karl-Peter Münkel, Managing Director of K&P Computer, says: “If you want to be successful in the IT industry in the long term, you have to be able to correctly assess current developments and their future potential. For us as an IT system house, this forms the basis for enabling companies to respond to changes quickly and appropriately. I see it as one of our main tasks to identify strategic IT opportunities for our customers – and to help them exploit them profitably with our holistic service approach.” Human resources as a success factor
In order to fulfill its role as a strategic IT partner for customers in the best possible way, it needs one thing above all: excellently trained and motivated specialist staff. K&P Computer therefore attaches great importance to optimally promoting junior staff and experienced employees. The IT system house offers various attractive apprenticeships for career starters, such as IT systems integration specialist or IT systems clerk. Other options include a dual Bachelor’s degree in business informatics in cooperation with Mainz University of Applied Sciences and gaining initial professional experience as a working student.

Even experienced professionals have various opportunities at K&P Computer to continuously develop their skills in line with their personal interests. The concept of supporting employees in pursuing their individual career goals is a success: 88% of management positions at K&P Computer – from team leader to managing director – were not filled from outside, but the managers have
developed there via internal paths. The IT system house also ensures the satisfaction of its employees with a wide range of benefits. For example, K&P Computer has been taking part in the Wiesbaden Chamber of Industry and Commerce’s “Healthy Company” project for three years in order to systematically and sustainably develop health promotion. In November 2018, IHK President Dr. Christian Gastl once again presented the company with the premium certificate for this.
