Kern AG – About us

Increasing efficiency. Performance for our customers, demands on ourselves.

Kern AG – Who are we?

Kern AG is one of the leading providers of modern corporate planning software for the fields of controlling, finance, sales, distribution and Logistics. For almost 20 years, we have been bridging the gap between Microsoft Excel and SAP with our products. Our core competency is complete integration of Excel in SAP. The technology we have developed for this purpose is unrivaled and forms the basis of our planning and controlling solutions, Allevo. Our Excel add-in and reporting tool, Sparks, can also be used solely with Microsoft Excel, i.e. independent of SAP.

From global players like Adidas, Siemens and PWC to national giants such as ADAC, EnBW and Müllermilch, and to local institutions, such as municipal utility companies, public transport service providers and clinics — our controlling and reporting tools are valued by more than 300 companies.

What sets us apart?

Since 2004, our name has reflected our motto "Komplexe Ereignisse Reduziert Nachbilden" (Complex Events Reduce Replication). Through this, we place ourselves under creative pressure to be the best instead of second best.

Kern AG offers an all-inclusive package with development, consultation and support, all under one roof. Our methodical, yet flexible approach allows us to react to problems swiftly and solve them straight away.

For us, the client and their individual needs are always in focus. That’s why we maintain a cooperative and resolutely solution-oriented relationship with our business partners. Our solutions always focus on the core of the matter, increase the company’s productivity, sustainably promote transparency, and make a positive contribution to the profitability of business processes.

With our expertise, we can assist you in all matters relating to the interaction between Microsoft Excel and SAP. From Excel, to SAP, ABAP, VBA, .NET and Java, right up to Access – we have competencies across the board.

Environmental protection & social commitment

Environmental protection is very important to us. We are therefore delighted that we are able to support the South Baden Nature Conservation Association with a sponsorship to protect the nearby Taubergießen nature reserve with its unique alluvial forest landscape and thus secure important habitats for the local flora, insects and fauna. But protecting our environment is also very important to us in our day-to-day work. That's why we offer our customers and interested parties web sessions instead of on-site appointments. This saves time and travel. Internally, we promote our ecological footprint by working digitally as far as possible. This means we use less paper. Our modern offices with a sustainable energy concept also contribute to environmental protection, as do our business trips. This is because we prefer to travel by public transport or form car pools.

We take our social responsibility very seriously. In Freiburg, we have been involved for several years with the social association "Alles ist anders" (Everything is different), which provides professional care and support for grieving children and young people, and with CLEFT Kinderhilfe e. V., which helps children with cleft lip and palate worldwide, finances necessary operations and follow-up treatment for those affected and ensures local medical care. In this way, we make a modest contribution on behalf of every employee child so that affected children can find a way out of their grief and regain stability, security and reliability, and children with cleft lip and palate can lead a normal life.
