Summary

I am Noah Habtom, founder of NextUp Consulting. During my career in logistics, crafts, construction, industry, and healthcare, I repeatedly saw that digitalization often fails at two hurdles: the technology is there but not used properly – or it isn't accepted by employees because it doesn't fit their system.

That's exactly what I want to change! My goal is to design digital solutions that are intuitive, efficient, and clear for everyone involved. Real progress only happens when technology truly makes daily work easier.

My values are sustainability, efficiency, and transparency – and I stand by these in every project. I believe real change only succeeds when it has a lasting impact, measurably improves processes, and is clear for all involved.

I combine technical understanding with empathy for the people who live these processes. For me, that means: not every solution fits every company. I listen, analyze each situation, and develop solutions that make sense both technically and personally.

My approach is not just strategic but hands-on. I actively guide companies through every step – from analysis and planning to implementation and staff training. This way, you don't just get a concept, but a working system that delivers results in daily operations.
