in 1954. In 1959, Diebold opened the first branch offices in Germany. The first Swiss branch was established in 1986; at the same time, the consulting portfolio was expanded by the addition of business strategies and process re-engineering. In August 2012, Detecon moved its headquarters from Bonn to Cologne and new premises at Sternengasse 14-16. In 1977, Detecon, previously operating under the name Deutsche Telepost Consulting, was founded to provide consulting services to the telecommunications industry. In view of the growing importance of IT and TC technologies in areas far beyond the narrow confines of actual telecommunications, Detecon has taken this expertise as its starting point to offer consulting services to clients from virtually all industries. Nevertheless, the focus of the company’s services remains on consulting and implementation solutions based on the use of information and communications technologies.
