Özgür Agcakaya · Electrical engineer · Solothurn
The engineer you talk to is the one who does the work.
No account managers and no hand-offs. Choose a point to see what it means in practice.
You work with me, from the first question to the handover.
I take on a limited number of projects so I can do each one myself. The person who answers your first message is the one who measures, configures, tests and documents.
- No account manager between you and the work
- No hidden subcontracting to employees or freelancers
- One contact who knows your whole system
You don't have to manage the technical side yourself.
Many clients have no time to run a technical project, or no way to judge what a contractor is doing. I take that part on: I talk to vendors and installers, check their work and turn it into plain decisions for you.
- I coordinate vendors, installers and suppliers
- I check third-party work before you accept it
- You decide; I prepare the options and the facts
Every finding, decision and cost is written down.
You get the measurements, the reasoning and the costs as the work happens, not at the end. If something is not worth fixing, or not my field, I tell you before we spend money on it.
- Written updates at each step
- Costs agreed before work starts
- An honest answer when something is not worth doing
I measure before I change anything, and test before I call it done.
Guessing is expensive. I find the cause first, fix it, test the result under real conditions and leave documentation, so the next person, or you, can understand the system.
- Diagnosis before changes
- Tests and acceptance under real conditions
- As-built documentation and diagrams at handover

03 · HOW I WORK
Every job runs like a test protocol.
Input, process, output, written down step by step. It starts with a free first assessment, in an online meeting or in writing. Choose a case:
Devices or systems from different vendors that have to work together.
04 · WHAT I'VE DONE
Ten years across every layer of a system.
From network equipment to software to control systems: a national control centre, four metro lines, security platforms with devices from many vendors. Different projects, the same job: make it work, prove it works, write it down.
