IBYKUS AG for Information Systems
Our History
Since 1984
The Berlin team of IBYKUS AG, formerly ecg GmbH, emerged from TBI europe BV, founded in Holland in 1984, and has been active in Germany since 1991. In 2004, ecg GmbH separated from the Dutch holding company and has since been active as an independent service provider in Germany and other European countries. Since 2024, ecg GmbH has merged with IBYKUS AG for information systems.
Our SoftwareEureka
Development of the first offline Eureka application. Project data are entered by the beneficiaries electronically by installing the local program version and sending in the data disk.
Improvements are made to the offline application. Integration of several data collection groups for participants (TRS) and companies (URS). Development of extensive evaluation options for all user groups, creation of expenditure declarations directly from the system.
Development of the second generation of Eureka – the first web-based application. Specific applications for the State of Berlin, for the BMWA (Equal) and for Austria.
Development of the third generation of Eureka applications for the ESF and the ERDF as well as for special applications in Berlin, Rheinland-Pfalz and Austria.
Development of the fourth generation of Eureka. Eureka2020 as a standard program for the federal government and for the state of Berlin. An expansion of the user groups in other European member states is planned.
Like all previous programs, Eureka4.0 is based on a web application and a standardized database. Over the years, we have expanded our configuration options and implemented individual specialist modules with the help of various standard workflows.
The standard workflows meet all requirements that are placed on a workflow-controlled application and have been improved in-house over the past few years in close cooperation with our clients.
Expanding the configuration options enable web applications for national and EU funding programs to be implemented in the shortest possible time, based on standard workflows. Our customers can make adjustments on their own, without the need to commission expensive external programming jobs.

Eureka5 is a further development of the previous version 4.0. In addition to some technological innovations, the development of Eureka 5 pursued two main goals:
- The simplification of the configuration options for our clients through the implementation of a modular administration tool, with which possibilities were created such as the creation of completely new applications without manufacturer support.
- The implementation of the requirements of the Online Access Act (OZG) incl. integration with service accounts and signature requirements.
Since 1991, the Berlin team has been responsible for providing technical assistance for the European Social Fund on behalf of the Berlin Senate Administration. We have also performed a number of fiduciary tasks for various Berlin Senate administrations and other state and federal ministries. We also carry out similar tasks in Austria on behalf of several states and federal ministries.
In 2011, on behalf of the Berlin Managing Authority and the Audit Authority in Austria, we developed an audit manual defining the implementation and application of the ESF management and control systems (MCS) in Austria.
We like to advise you.
