Change has always been part of Kanzen’s DNA. From supporting our clients with consulting expertise through Kanzen Consult, to empowering professionals with hands-on learning in Kanzen Academy, we’ve built our reputation by tackling complexity head-on.
Now, we’re taking the next step. We’re proud to introduce Kanzen Labz—a new organizational unit dedicated to developing innovative solutions that address the toughest challenges our customers face in safety-critical, highly regulated industries.
Complexity in Regulated Development
If you work in automotive, medical, or aerospace & defense, you already know the story: compliance is non-negotiable, but the processes behind it can feel like an endless maze.
- Reporting requirements eat up valuable engineering time.
- Auditors demand ever-more detailed evidence of traceability.
- Teams struggle to balance agility with the rigor that standards like ISO 26262, IEC 62304, or DO-178C demand.
At Kanzen, we’ve spent years supporting organizations through these challenges with Codebeamer implementations and systems engineering expertise. But as projects grew in scope and complexity, one thing became clear: consulting alone wasn’t enough. Many of our clients needed purpose-built solutions that could sit on top of their existing ALM workflows and make compliance easier, faster, and more reliable.
A Space for Experimentation and Innovation
That’s where Kanzen Labz comes in. It’s more than just another branch of our business—it’s a dedicated innovation hub where we take everything we’ve learned from consulting on complex projects and turn it into scalable solutions.
Here’s what we’re already working on:
- Enhanced Compliance Reporting for Codebeamer & ALM
We’re developing a BI (Business Intelligence) integration solution that gives customers advanced reporting capabilities, making compliance audits smoother, faster, and far less painful. - AI-Powered Compliance Assistance
Together with an AI expert from another regulated industry, we’re building an intelligent solution that simplifies compliance tasks across automotive, medtech, and aerospace. Think of it as a digital co-pilot that helps you align with regulations without drowning in documentation.
And this is just the beginning. Kanzen Labz is our launchpad for the next generation of tools that support engineering excellence in regulated environments.
Building the Future, Together
With Kanzen Consult, we help you implement processes and systems that work. With Kanzen Academy, we train your teams to use them effectively. And with Kanzen Labz, we’re now building the missing pieces—the tailored solutions that make compliance and reporting not just manageable, but strategic advantages.
“This is the foundation of the future of Kanzen—where our experience solving complex problems evolves into creating innovative solutions.”
We’re excited to share more as these projects mature, and we invite you to join us on this journey. Whether you’re a client, a partner, or simply curious about what’s possible, Kanzen Labz is where innovation meets compliance.
