history
The company was founded in Berlin in 1969 by Dietrich Jaeschke, who worked at the AEG Institute for Automation. A first order from the steel industry was won. The company merged in 1973 with the Aschaffenburg Society for Industrial Data Processing (GID), which was also founded by former AEG employees . In 1974 the principles of a largely democratic employee society were laid down. PSI was an absolute pioneer in terms of employee participation.
In 1976 the company achieved its first major successes as a provider of software for energy supply; 1986 saw the market launch of the first standard software product in the field of production planning (PPS). The company was converted into a stock corporation in 1994 and went public in August 1998.
In 1999 the company announced a strategic partnership with DITEC AG , which was founded as a rescue company for former DEC employees and at the time Germany's largest employee company. However, Solution Software GmbH, which was taken over from DITEC's bankruptcy estate in 2001, had to file for bankruptcy again in 2002.
In spring 2009 the investor Ka-Jo Neukirchen acquired a 29% share package in PSI. After the entry of the new investor, the company announced a capital increase from authorized capital excluding subscription rights in May 2009, in which all shares of RWE were subscribed and taken over. A little later, in June 2009, PSI decided to increase the company's capital against contributions in kind through a share swap. The subject of the contribution in kind were the shares in inControl Tech from Malaysia. In 2010 Ka-Jo Neukirchen sold his share in PSI.
