How we serve 

InSolution specialists work directly in Glaston’s product and software development teams. We participate in the most demanding customer-specific deliveries and system integrations for production lines — for example, robotics or warehouse automation. Our experts also make independent customer visits and are even included in organizational charts. 

In addition, the collaboration supports team transformation through agile development frameworks like Scrum. This means working iteratively with testing and feedback, enabling easy course correction, more precise development, and better alignment with customer needs — all while reducing investment risks. Agile development also strengthens customer relationships through more frequent and meaningful interactions. 

Thanks to the new working models, Glaston is transitioning away from traditional design departments toward autonomous and agile teams. 

Achieved benefits 

InSolution provides Glaston’s teams not only with the right resources at the right time, but also with a rare level of deep expertise. Ongoing interaction and joint learning enhance mutual development. As a result, quality improves, customer satisfaction increases, and both cost-efficiency and competitiveness are strengthened.
