The founders of ORISA are from ZEISS and IBM. One of the first major orders for ORISA was a knowledge-based solution for work plan generation for ZEISS, which is still the heart of optics production today. From this and similar projects, such as the train configurator for Siemens, the knowledge for the development of powerful configuration solutions up to the standard product CREALIS® was formed. CREALIS® serves as a multifunctional CPQ platform for configurators in medical technology, industrial metrology, vehicle and equipment construction, machine tool construction, building services and other branches of mechanical engineering.
