Digital Labs 42 GmbH

One house for processes, architecture and AI.

Digital Labs 42 brings Enterprise Architects, Process Automation Engineers, BPM coaches, and BCM and AI specialists under one roof. For over 15 years we have been bringing process automation to corporations, mid-sized companies and the public sector.

How we work

We use what we recommend.

Our own workflows are modelled, automated and supported by AI. That way we know first-hand what holds up in day-to-day work and what only looks good on slides.

What we learn along the way, we share openly: in our podcasts, in coaching sessions and in the German BPM and process automation community, which we helped to build.
