ORGANIZATION
Mission Statement
Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting is among the leading management consulting firms in Austria in the fields of Corporate Strategy, Marketing, Organizational Development, New Public Management, Change Management and Regional Economic Development.
Our high competence in conceptualizing tailor-made solutions to business challenges exert a lasting influence on the market performance and the success of our national and international clients. We concentrate on practical solutions rather than theoretical possibilities.
Through our active "Stakeholder-Management" we secure the steady involvement of all relevant parties in the change process and provide for a positive social and political environment. It is with this party involvement and positive environment in mind that we lay the foundations for successful concept implementation later on.
 
Company Development
In 1993 Dr. Gerhard Stuermer Ltd. Marketing Consulting merged with the Softwarehouse Ramsauer to form Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting. This merger successfully combined fundamental fields of Management Consulting and Software Engineering under one roof. Then a network of specialized consultants was established and gradually extended. This network covers all fundamental areas of management consulting.
Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting expanded rapidly and is today also represented in neighboring countries such as the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Slovenia. The Ramsauer & Stuermer group adds 62 employees and a yearly turnover of nearly 8 million Euro to the ranks of leading Austrian management businesses.
 
Foundations of Success
The core competences of Ramsauer & Stürmer Consulting are based on four basic principles:
- Know-how
- Business orientation
- Catering to client culture and language
- International presence
Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting distinguishes itself with its high priority on practical experience. Most of our consultants have held leading positions and spent years working in the field of economics. In every phase of a consulting project, we put great effort producing practical applicable results. We orient ourselves first and foremost on "practical feasibility".
We strive to keep communication with our clients practice oriented. Complex issues are presented clearly in our client’s language. "Keep it simple" doesn’t mean to take things trivially, but to clarify the content of the project for all those involved (client, colleagues, etc.).
30 % of the yearly project volume of Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting is of foreign provenance. Our locations in Vienna, Linz and Salzburg, as well as Prague, Budapest and Laibach provide international know-how and ensure area-wide support of our clients in Austria and its neighboring eastern European countries.

QUALIFICATIONS
Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting covers a wide range of expertise and offer effective support in many different strategic and operative management tasks.
These abilities apply to both business concerns and those of non-profit organizations and associations. Apart from that, we have established ourselves as a desired partner in many innovative fields of expertise (ie: New Public Management or Economic Development Consulting). Convince yourself by reviewing the wide spectrum of our fields of expertise:
- Strategy
- Organizational Development
- Marketing and Sales
- New Public Management
- Change Management
- Economic Development Consulting
- Training & Coaching
 
Strategy
Strategic planning is surely the most central and, at the same time, the most elegant management challenge. The predetermination of future market trends, the identification of strategic competitive advantages and the cultivation of strategic success-potentials are what decide the long-term survival of businesses.
Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting supports you through these challenges. With a high level of professional competence and an excellent knowledge of methods, we guarantee custom designed strategy development processes.
Ramsauer & Stuermer leads you through the development and implementation of your business strategies. For strategy implementation, we offer the use of the Balanced Scorecard (BSC), in connection with the Value-driver model. With the help of these instruments, an effective and sustainable connection between the planned strategic direction and the operational level can be secured.
In the field of Business Building we advise our clients on the set-up of new business units and fields. We offer support in making a strategic business plan, designing effective market-entry strategies and lead the start-up until the first milestones have been reached.
Strategic Political Consulting presents yet another aspect of Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting’s expertise. Our offered services cover all phases of professional campaign work. We advise our clients on the strategic positioning of people and parties, the application of strategic communications plans (core messages, target groups, routing tools) and offer support for up-to-date campaign management.
 
Organizational Development
Structures and processes construct the framework for daily business performance and substantially influence the competitiveness of businesses via quality, costs and efficiency.
Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting has established itself in past years as a specialist in the fields of Process Management and Re-engineering. The services we offer reach from identifying the firm’s core processes through computer-aided illustrations, analysis, and simulations, to the redesigning of business processes.
With our know-how in conceptualizing and implementing tailor-made solutions in the field of Knowledge Management, we go the extra mile for optimal care of your process related information system. This also applies to web-based information and knowledge management systems (e-learning-Consulting).
Consulting for the structural arrangement of organizations (organizational structure) presents yet another of Ramsauer & Stuermer’s fields of expertise. We support our clients with an analysis of the organization structure, the optimization of existing structures as well as the development of structural solutions for new units and fields of business, and the final realization of reorganizational measures.
 
Marketing & Sales
A key element for lasting profitable growth in business is the professional conceptualization and implementation of strategic or operative marketing programs.
Through our wide variety of practice-tested marketing techniques & tools, and our years of experience in developing creative strategic marketing concepts, we can offer you practical support in coping with these tasks. In past years we have further increased our marketing know-how, especially in the field of Health & Tourism. Numerous hot springs and spa facilities were supported by Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting in such areas as market positioning, development of target-group-specific packages, as well as planning the introduction to the market.
With the invention and implementation of our Customer Relationship Management plan, Ramsauer & Stuermer offers professional leadership with the Service Offering "CRM-at-work". This includes - among other things - the analysis and conception of CRM-Processes with regard to the whole business, consulting the client on the choices of CRM-Software tools, as well as providing support during the implementation of the chosen CRM-System into the company.
An additional emphasis of Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting’s is the elaboration of Acquisition & Sales Concepts. We help you in developing an appropriate and efficient system for the allocation of the sales force, designing Area-wide-Marketing Plans as well as developing powerful and flexible sales organizations.
Furthermore, we assist you in solving complex logistic problems and we optimize your supply chain with special attention to the success factors: time, costs, and effectiveness.
 
New Public Management
Budget restrictions are characteristic of the situation of local and national authorities and other federations. At the same time they are faced with an increasingly critical and demanding public.
Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting helps regional corporations, chambers, associations and public institutions to solve this Gordian knot. Through the implementation of tailor-made economic management techniques, process & structure optimization and a concentration on critical core activities, both the efficiency as well as the effectiveness of public administration can be considerably improved.
Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting has, in the past few years, turned into one of the leading advisors for associations and public corporations. For this reason we are very familiar with the often challenging political and social environment of these organizations. The combination of this knowledge with our outstanding competence in the field of Organizational Development and Process Management are makes us a preferable partner for all questions regarding New Public Management.
Similarly dynamic as the New Public Management is the evolution of e-government. Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting advises public associations with the development of tailor-made and client oriented e-government strategies and offer practical support with the implementation of the worked out solutions (rearrangement of internal processes, choice of IT-services, etc.).
 
Change Management
In view of the increasingly faster changing business environments and the increasing need for business flexibility, Change Management will become one of the most important strategic management responsibilities.
The observable growth in dynamic complexity puts new demands on business leadership. Combined with strategic planning, this puts an increasing demand on the inclusion of values, cultural principles and a common identity in the corporate strategic leadership.
Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting has long led businesses from a multitude of different branches to success, by the initiation and realization of transformation processes. This includes the strategic new arrangement of businesses, the development of mission statements and business visions, projects of cultural change (business culture) and also the leadership of change processes in businesses through professional project management.
 
Economic Development Consulting
The competition between regions, cities and communities has grown strongly in a unifying Europe. Due to profound business and economic political changes, regions are losing their competitive advantages. At the same time, in an era of globalization competitive pressure is increasing in these regions, putting an end to complacency and a passive wait-and-see attitude.
For this reason, modern regional management needs a professionalization of structures and processes, while also developing long-term economic and technological political concepts and implementation plans.
Ramsauer & Stuermer Consulting leads its clients through the working of economic programs, regional development strategies, and innovation & technology programs at the beginning of the project as well as through ongoing cluster management.
 
Training & Coaching
Together with our network partner Koessler & Partner Inc. we help lead and support organizations and their employees as they learn and develop new leadership abilities & communications skills.
At the same time, we see ourselves as leaders and orient ourselves on people’s qualities, needs and development potential, because we see the success of a business as the sum of the potentials and motivations of all the employees.
Our qualifications include the elaboration of lasting personal advancement plans and strategies, the moderation of workshops, strategic and analytical conferences, as well as supporting the further development of social competence of senior management.
We specially tailor our training and coaching services to the current needs and concerns of our clients.
CLIENTS
Leading Austrian non-profit businesses and organizations have trusted in Ramsauer & Stürmer Consulting’s advisory capacity for years. Many years of successful cooperation link us with many of our clients. In past years more than two-thirds of our fees have come from pre-existing business relations - impressive proof of the loyalty and satisfaction of our clients.
