Strategic Realignment 2025

Leadership Change at HWS Gruppe: A New Course for the Future

With a clear view of the coming years and a change in management, we are starting the year 2025 full of confidence. At our Townhall event in mid-January, we not only presented a new vision, but also took an important step for our future: Our long-standing Managing Director and owner Bernd Scheuerer has handed over operational management into new hands. Volkmar Fritz will take over responsibility for our company as CEO with immediate effect.

Bernd Scheuerer has characterised our company for many years with passion, vision and commitment. Under his leadership, we were able to establish ourselves as a reliable and innovative partner in the IT industry.

‘It has been a great pleasure to work with such a dedicated team on the success story of our company. I am proud of what we have achieved and am convinced that we are ideally positioned to remain successful in the future. In Volkmar Fritz, we are gaining a leader who will take the company to the next level,’ explained Bernd Scheuerer on the occasion of the handover.

Even though he is stepping back from day-to-day business, Bernd Scheurer will actively support the company strategically in his role as owner and lead it into a new era together with Volkmar Fritz.

New Leadership, New Impulses

Volkmar Fritz, an experienced top manager, is taking over the management of the company. With over 30 years of professional experience, including 22 years in top management positions in groups in the aviation industry as well as the banking and insurance sectors, he brings with him extensive and interdisciplinary knowledge. Coupled with his many years of experience as a management consultant, this forms a solid basis for moulding the HWS Group into a high-performance entity in the market in all its areas.

‘I am very much looking forward to the challenge of leading this high-potential company into the future. Together with a professional team, we will develop market potential efficiently and sustainably, intensify our partnerships and continue to set the highest standards for ourselves.

‘I am convinced that we will be able to focus the HWS Group on the coming years and at the same time grow dynamically while maintaining our high quality standards for our customers,’ emphasised Volkmar Fritz.

Departure into a Dynamic Future

The markets in which we operate are changing rapidly. Digitalisation, AI and growing customer demands as well as the need for customised IT solutions require us to constantly keep our finger on the pulse. We will rise to these challenges and actively utilise new opportunities.

With a clear focus on quality and innovation, we want to act not only as a service provider, but also as a partner who understands and fulfils the individual needs of our customers. Our organisation will remain flexible and future-oriented so that we can react quickly and effectively to changes.

Our path into the future is characterised by a strong team, clear goals and a shared vision. We are convinced that with commitment, creativity and the support of all our partners and customers, we will write a new success story.

On this foundation, we look to the future with confidence and drive – ready to strengthen our position in the industry and create sustainable added value for everyone involved.
