About Frontrunner IO

IT changes
that actually work.

Frontrunner IO is the consultancy of Andreas Böhrnsen, based in Berlin. We help small and mid-sized companies in Germany implement changes to their IT safely — from servers and databases to software delivery. Through concrete implementation, not abstract concepts.

Frontrunner IO

Our principles

How we think determines how we work.

  • 1

    Understand first, then change

    No change without a diagnosis. We look at what is there and why before we propose anything.

  • 2

    Start small, then scale

    A pilot proves more than a concept. We deliver a visible result first, then we talk about the rest.

  • 3

    Everything traceable

    Every change is described as code, documented and reviewed. You can always see what changed — and undo it.

  • 4

    Knowledge stays with you

    We do not build black boxes. In the end your team understands what we did and can carry it forward on their own.

What we know well

Our core competencies sit where operations, development and cost meet.

Linux & infrastructure

Server operations, automation and migration of Windows environments to Linux — in the data centre, at hosters and in the cloud.

Infrastructure as Code

Terraform, Ansible and friends: infrastructure and configuration as versioned, reviewable code.

Containers & Kubernetes

Containerising and running applications — from Docker Compose to Kubernetes, sized for the company.

Databases

Migration from Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server to PostgreSQL, including application adjustments and operations.

CI/CD & GitLab

Pipelines, review apps and security checks — so every change is tested automatically before it goes live.

Regulated environments

Experience with traceability and auditability from finance and insurance — useful for every other company too.

Why Frontrunner IO

What sets us apart from classic IT consulting.

  • Hands-on, not concept papers

    We write the code, set up the systems and stand next to you at go-live. Results come from implementation, not from slides.

  • One point of contact

    From start to finish you talk to the same person — who does the assessment, writes the plan and delivers the pilot.

  • Built for small and mid-sized companies

    No enterprise overhead. Clear offers with fixed scope, understandable for management and IT, deliverable with small teams.

Let's get to know each other.

30 minutes, free, by video. You tell us what is coming up — we tell you honestly whether and how we can help.
