IDS GmbH and EPS GmbH join Forces for the Future

As of 30 April 2009, IDS GmbH (Ettlingen) have taken over all shares of Erwin Peters Systemtechnik GmbH (EPS), Bochum (W. Germany).

IDS is a medium-size company in private ownership with an annual turnover of ca. 28 million Euro. The acquisition of EPS forms a part of IDS’s growth strategy.

In this new constellation, EPS will continue to operate as an independent company and pursue its operative activities on the market. The development of products and services from EPS will be continued according to plan. Thanks to the cooperation with EPS GmbH, IDS is not only able to expand its portfolio, especially with regard to products for system engineering applications, but also has now an additional branch in the Ruhr area. The business activities of EPS are focussed especially on the automation and management of supply networks, system engineering and the planning of transmission systems, with particular emphasis on “S7-compatible automation” for water supply and disposal applications and automation systems. For further information, please refer to the EPS website (www.epsystem.de).

IDS currently employs ca. 300 staff in the departments R&D, sales, production, projects and administration. Your EPS contacts will be available under their usual addresses and telephone numbers. Please contact us if you have any questions with regard to the aforementioned changes (contact address: see below).

True to the motto “Fit for the Future“, IDS GmbH has established itself firmly on the German market as a specialist for network management, SCADA systems, automation, telecontrol and communications technology. As one of the few providers of complete solutions, IDS offers innovative turnkey solutions from one source. The development efforts of IDS Group focus on products and IT applications for the supply and disposal industry and are integrated into customers’ projects without delay.
