Wienerberger is a leading international and globally active provider of building materials and infrastructure solutions. The company is the largest brick producer worldwide, market leader in clay roof tiles and pipe systems in Europe, and in concrete paving stones in Central-Eastern Europe. Facing an enormous transformation and shaped by the approach “Shift from Projects to Products”, the IT began to reorient itself from 2019.
The aim was to move away from classic IT support and position itself as a competent IT business partner for the internal business units, not only processing tickets but also providing solutions. Under the leadership of Manfred Heger, Head of IT Strategy, Innovation & Projects at Wienerberger, the approach of a product development concept was pursued and implemented with the support of catworkx.
