Or what you always wanted to know about speedy but never dared to ask. ;-)

How did the name speedy come about?
speedy was created as a customised software development for a leading global special machine manufacturer at the end of the 90s.
The first version was designed to generate drawing numbers according to a classification scheme and to manage parts lists.
The customer called the solution ZNRSTL - an unwieldy name, especially when pronounced with a Bavarian accent.
When looking for a name, product data management (PDM) should be included.
The pronounced PDM [peːdeːˈɛm] and a key feature, performance, became speedy@m.
In the course of the first few years, however, speedy@m was only called speedy by users. So it made sense to simply call the product speedy.

speedy may sound cute at first, but it's a wolf in sheep's clothing, an Austin Mini with a 5-litre V8. A vault killer,
but also a Swiss army knife. There's no such thing as can't.
