Dr. Vernazzani, what peculiarities distinguish COMED in its reference market?
Professionalism, experience and innovation: these are the hallmarks of COMED S.r.l., a company founded in Naples back in 1994 with the aim of becoming an important reference point in the ICT market, offering high-quality Management Software Solutions and Global Services. Thanks to a strategic vision and an innovative business approach, the company – which will celebrate its first 30 years of existence on 3 May 2024 – over time, however, has decided to focus its core business on Corporate Consulting activities (the sale of Software is in fact today a purely complementary activity to that of IT and organisational consulting), carrying out an intense management and IT support activity for production and distribution companies located throughout Italy, and for some years now, also internationally, mainly in Germany and Poland.

In recent years, the Industry 4.0 Plan has been an important turning point for the digitisation process of Italian SMEs. Can your technological solutions be considered innovative tools at the service of businesses?
In order to best venture into the fourth industrial revolution, companies today need a radical change of mentality, corporate culture and organisational strategy, focusing on automated operational processes and smart technologies that enable them to keep up with the constant changes imposed by an increasingly dynamic and competitive market. In this context, Industry 4.0 is the real strength of the digital transformation as it allows many SMEs to sustain significant investments in technological and digital innovation, tackling profound paths of organisational and IT renewal with strategic policies aimed at all stages of the transformation process (an important acceleration came from the PNRR, which allocated 49 billion for digitalisation, innovation, sustainability and competitiveness). Well aware of these new organisational and operational needs, and backed by its specialised knowledge of all business processes, COMED stands on the market as a qualified and reliable partner of companies, a single interlocutor able to increase their efficiency, productivity and competitiveness thanks to a tailor-made consultancy activity with high added value and thanks to the offer of highly innovative tools compared to the past; cutting-edge management software to make operational processes more efficient and to analyse company data in an increasingly smart, precise and profitable way (until a few years ago, software was organised in menus on several levels that ended with specific functions. An organisation that required users to search for the functions associated with their role by navigating through the menus. With the digital transformation and new technological methodologies, the approach changes radically: software today no longer works by menu-driven functions, but designs the various business processes, allowing these processes to be followed in an intelligent graphical manner). Aiming to play a leading role in today’s digital revolution, every day COMED pays tribute to a corporate culture increasingly oriented towards customer centrality and maximisation of customer satisfaction, with an eye on the innovative trends of a constantly evolving market.
