SEMA is one of the world's leading providers of software solutions and services for timber construction, staircase construction and sheet metal processing industries. The company is part of the SYSTABUILD Software Group - a network of several specialized software brands for the construction industry that provide digital solutions for efficient planning, construction and execution. Thomas Gartner takes over the role of CEO of SEMA with immediate effect.
As CEO, Thomas Gartner will continue to consistently drive the company's growth and contribute his extensive knowledge of growth-oriented business models in the SaaS and technology sector.
Thomas Gartner was most recently Vice President at BRZ Germany, where he was responsible for marketing, sales and customer success. In addition to consistently aligning the solution portfolio and internal processes with market requirements, his focus was particularly on the transformation of the business model - from classic on-premises/perpetual to flexible SaaS/subscription offerings.

"I am very much looking forward to my new role and working with the whole team," says Thomas Gartner. "The challenges in the construction industry are becoming ever more complex and competition is constantly increasing. The market for timber construction is growing steadily and demands modern, integrated digital solutions. We will continue to expand our digital platform for efficient processes in timber construction, staircase construction and sheet metal processing, thereby strengthening our customers' competitiveness in the long term."
