about us

Our company
ZURATEC GmbH was founded in January 2025 by the two managing partners, Dirk Raskopf & Rainer Zuber, after several years of cooperation as independent business actors, with a focus on systematic, practice-oriented & target-oriented management consulting with the following focal points:
- Operational sales support
- Crisis management & restructuring
- Lean manufacturing & production planning
- Management systems & audits
- Interim management
- Network & Experience
- Coaching & Mediation (according to §5 Abs. 2 MediationsG.)
- Trade in technical goods
Instead of theoretical models, we pass on management knowledge. Know-how from practitioners for practitioners.
We want our customers to always be 100% satisfied.
Hence the motto: “Reaching the goal together”
