Keep it simple and straightforward

Home • Our services

KISS Technologies provides engineering and consulting services for Swiss and international clients in the industrial, technology, medtech and IT sector.

We apply the KISS principle: Keep it Simple and Straightforward. The resulting systems are easier to use and maintain and much more robust against error. Thus, they have significantly lower development and total ownership costs and are much more hassle-free and enjoyable to use.

We're proud to be able to offer a broad spectrum of services and core competencies. In a typical industry project, we draw from many of them to maximise reliability and customer satisfaction.

Please see our portfolio for short descriptions of our past projects.
