CWA manufactures over 2,000 ropeway cabins annually from its Olten headquarters, serving ski resorts and urban transport operators globally as part of the Doppelmayr Group. The tech stack is enterprise-grade but traditional—SAP, IFS, and Office suite—with no active cloud or modern data-stack adoptions listed, consistent with a capital-intensive manufacturing operation. Hiring is accelerating across engineering and manufacturing, with notable investment in field service leadership, suggesting expansion in either production capacity or service-delivery footprint.
