Success Story

IT review of one of the largest parcel shipping

  • Review of the entire IT for a logistics player in the German region

  • Development of a strategic IT target picture

 

Initial situation

The IT landscape of a player in the logistics sector consists of numerous, historically grown, different systems and platforms, some of which were developed in-house. The tech stack is very broad, whereas both the usual IT management processes and a clear definition of USP-relevant systems are not sufficiently in place. In addition, the dilapidated organisational structure hardly allows for productive cooperation between the business and IT sides.

  • Analysis of the existing IT landscape, tech stack, processes and organisational structures
