“We tried to elevate the existing software to become a solution-oriented product that not only convinces internal customers, but is also attractive for customers beyond Siemens business units."
that industrial knowledge - especially the kind buried in RFQs, tenders, and regulatory documents - deserves more than just storage.
It deserves transformation.
We set out to build a platform that doesn’t just digitize information - it understands it. By integrating cutting-edge AI, natural language processing, and computer vision, we tailor our technology to the real-world complexity of industrial requirements analysis.
Whether it’s a compliance-heavy tender or a multi-country RFQ, our customers now evaluate faster, more accurately, and turn every project into a reusable reference—eliminating costly rework and delays.
Dr. Pankaj Gupta, Chief AI Scientist and CTO at DRIMCO:
“We developed the smart software product DRIM that automatically adapts to any kind of industry sector and supports various types of customers in reducing risk, cost and time in analyzing tenders. Fueled by Artificial Intelligence capabilities, the software is able to build up a knowledge base within the company and generates learning processes. Together with the Siemens software Polarion, we optimize processes that used to challenge or even overload our customers’ resources, in a smart and efficient manner.”
The roots of DRIM stretch back more than a decade to Siemens, where our founding team first explored the transformative potential of AI in industry. In the labyrinth of requirements management, we saw a perfect proving ground for intelligent automation. What began as an internal innovation matured into a standalone vision - one powerful enough to reshape how knowledge flows across industrial ecosystems.
Dr. Bernt Andrassy, Founder of DRIMCO GmbH:
“Driven by the mission to advance the industrial knowledge digitalization we were doing technology and use case developments within Siemens Technology. When the requirements use case hit us we immediately understood that requirements are the key to the knowledge of a company. We also understood that we needed to spin off as an independent start-up to leverage the full market potential and to attract VC funding to successfully accelerate our mission.
Now, Siemens and DRIMCO in their strong partnership are presenting an attractive offer to the market.”
“We tried to elevate the existing software to become a solution-oriented product that not only convinces internal customers, but is also attractive for customers beyond Siemens business units. For that reason, we initiated a cooperation agreement with Siemens Industry Software. Their business network provided access to potential customers whose demand and feedback were very valuable during DRIM’s development process.”
“Being part of our successful spin-off showed me that long-term commitment, collaboration and the right degree of pioneering spirit really pay off. It is rewarding to see what we have achieved by bundling our respective expertise.”
“All partners benefit from the establishment of DRIMCO: Siemens business units get a reliable software supplier, Siemens Industry Software gains new market access for their requirement management software Polarion, and the former developers at Siemens Technology are now able to fully realize the potential of an internally developed technology.”
The story of DRIM highlights how commercializing an internal Siemens technology has not only paid off but has also helped meet broader market demand — improving the product, strengthening customer relationships, and realizing economies of scale.
