HVAC and heating solutions manufacturer scaling IoT and heat pump product lines
Bosch Home Comfort Portugal manufactures residential and commercial heating, hot water, and climate control systems from a Lisboa base with 1,001–5,000 employees. The tech stack reveals a hardware-embedded engineering operation: Simulink, C, MATLAB, and LabVIEW for control systems design; industrial protocols (Profibus, EtherCAT, OPC UA, MQTT) for equipment integration; and SAP + Teamcenter for PLM and supply-chain coordination. Active projects center on heat pump solutions, IIoT device integration, and factory-wide MES platform connectivity—indicating a shift toward connected, monitored thermal systems. Pain points cluster around EHS compliance, R&D cost visibility, and product introduction timelines, suggesting operational friction in cross-functional delivery.
