Services
EPLAN designers for your projects
Anyone searching for an EPLAN designer rarely needs one person. What is needed is capacity that works its way into your standard, delivers to the project rhythm and is still there for the next project. That is the difference between a freelancer and an established design team.
When this service is needed
- A project is due and the EPLAN capacity cannot be staffed internally.
- A designer is out, the deadlines remain.
- A peak load has to be absorbed without permanently building up staff.
- Finding and onboarding freelancers costs more time than the project has.
Result
- Complete EPLAN project with article references
- Reports such as terminal plans, cable lists and parts lists
- Documented designation system
- Traceable revision states
We take on the electrical design there is no time for in house.

Capacity without a permanent post
Design capacity when you need it.
Process
How we work together
Clarify the requirement
Scope, system environment, standard, deadlines. You receive a reliable assessment, usually within one working day.
Onboarding
We adopt your designation system, your article data and your templates, and we document what we find.
Design in rhythm
Fixed contacts, agreed delivery cycles, interim states in the EPLAN project rather than PDF snapshots.
Handover
You receive the complete project with drawings, article data, macros and a revision state the next editor can build on.
We take on EPLAN design as a service, from individual schematics to complete plant sections to end-to-end work in EPLAN Electric P8, EPLAN Pro Panel and EPLAN Harness proD. You are not hiring a single pair of hands but a team that has worked in this niche since 1998, in which designers can stand in for one another.
The engagement does not start with the first drawing but with your standard, meaning your designation system, article data, macros and page structure. We work our way in and continue your structure rather than bringing our own. Where no standard exists yet, we propose one and put it in writing.
Whether the work runs remotely from Marienfeld and Guetersloh or on site with you depends on the project. For longer undertakings we build project teams at your premises. For ongoing design work a fixed rhythm with the same contacts has proven itself, from first conversation to completion.
In machine and special-machine building, planning is usually awarded as a package, not as individual drawing work. That is exactly how we take it on, with schematics in Electric P8, cabinet layout and manufacturing data in Pro Panel, wire harnesses in Harness proD, plus reports and documentation. It all runs as one scope with one responsible contact, not as a chain of separate trades.
Economics deserve an honest calculation. An in-house EPLAN position costs more than the salary. Licence and workstation, onboarding and cover for absence come on top, even in the months when no design work is due. As a service, you pay for capacity when projects exist. With a permanently full workload, your own staff is cheaper. With fluctuating project load the calculation tips our way, and most of our customers sit exactly there.
What you receive is not a stack of drawings but a maintained EPLAN project with clean article references, traceable revision states and reports that are correct. That is what separates design that holds up in operation from drawings that are only complete on handover day.

Frequently asked
EPLAN design services
You have a technical task? We will look at how it can be solved.
Discuss a projectWhat is the difference between a team and a single designer?
A single freelancer takes their knowledge with them when they leave. With us, designers bring each other up to speed, holiday and absence are covered, and the standard of your project is documented. The next order starts without repeated onboarding.
Which EPLAN programs do you work in?
EPLAN Electric P8 for electrical design, EPLAN Pro Panel for 3D cabinet layout and EPLAN Harness proD for wire harnesses. Alongside these, ELCAD and WSCAD where your plants are documented there.
Do you work remotely or on site?
Both. Ongoing design work mostly runs remotely from Marienfeld and Guetersloh. For projects needing close coordination we build teams at your premises. A mixed mode with onboarding on site and design done remotely has often proven itself.
Do you also take on the complete package?
Yes, and in machine building that is the normal case. We cover everything from electrical design through 3D cabinet layout and wire harnesses to finished documentation, as one scope with one responsible contact. We equally take on individual trades, for instance only the Pro Panel layout on top of your existing design.
What is the economic case for outsourcing rather than hiring?
An in-house position costs licence, workstation, onboarding and absence cover on top of the salary, and it costs even when no design work is due. Outsourced, you pay only for the capacity projects actually need. Honestly, the reverse also holds. Whoever keeps an EPLAN workstation permanently busy is better off with their own staff.
How quickly can you start?
That depends on current workload and cannot be promised across the board. What we can promise is that you will usually receive an honest assessment within one working day of whether and from when we can take on your project.
How do you recognise a good EPLAN service provider?
By the questions asked before the first drawing. A good EPLAN service provider wants to see your standard, meaning template, article data, macros and designation system, before making an offer. They name fixed contacts, deliver interim states in the EPLAN project and hand over a project whose reports are correct without rework.
Can you take over EPLAN projects from other designers?
Yes. We review the project, record its systematics and anything unusual, and continue it in the same structure. Where article data or macros are missing or inconsistent, we say so up front and suggest what is worth cleaning up.
