Synchronization - a Factor for Success
SyncroTESS introduced as the new name

During the Logistics Symposium 2004, INFORM presented the new name for their well-known logistics software - a name that reflects the product's comprehensive and future-oriented performance package.

Aachen, July 2004 - "20 years after the software's first installation, the anniversary of which we are also celebrating with this symposium, SyncroTESS represents the completion of a four year process of strategic development" Adrian Weiler, CEO of INFORM points out. Current market requirements have been taken into account with the result that the system's main focus is no longer the organization of logistics processes but the determining factor for success is the synchronization of these processes.

"With the new name SyncroTESS we describe the broad and highly efficient effects of integration and synchronization, which our system achieves even within highly complex logistics networks, cross-plant as well as different transport modes." confirms Udo Niessen, director of the Logistics Systems Division at INFORM.

The system, which was first implemented in July 1984 and was originally conceived for being used to support in-plant processes of materials flows, today optimizes highly complex logistics and supply chain processes. This is done as efficiently in the areas of inter plant transport and road transport as for intermodal processes in port terminals. SyncroTESS is also running successfully in the Healthcare sector at the Nuremberg Hospital.

Further successes at DaimlerChrysler AG, Container Terminal Altenwerder and Tarmac, one of the leading building materials suppliers in Great Britain, are an additional incentive for the entire INFORM team working successfully since 1982. Together with his team Mr. Niessen develops already future versions for systems like SyncroTESS Rail or SyncoTESS Ship and he considers a comprehensive coordination and synchronization of internal and external needs as a basic goal of system development.
