Hoyer picks Rappit to develop new transportation management system

The HOYER Group has selected Rappit, the enterprise software modernisation company, to build a next-generation Transportation Management System (TMS) powered by the Rappit Suite.


HOYER offers connected, integrated logistics services along the entire supply chain.


As a company built on tradition and a reputation for high-quality service, one of HOYER’s strategic objectives is the continuous improvement of processes to optimise services and ensure operational excellence, enabling HOYER to provide better and more sustainable services to customers.


To achieve this, the company’s existing TMS systems will be replaced by a future-ready system that allows HOYER to think ahead and maintain its leadership position in the industry.


Björn Smidt, head of business systems, HOYER Group, said: “HOYER made the strategic choice to go for a custom TMS because we want a differentiating system that fits HOYER’s specific needs and unique selling points. In an ever-changing world, HOYER strengthens its leadership position with an agile system supporting HOYER’s business.” 

In close collaboration with HOYER, Rappit will work to realize a future-ready TMS on Google Cloud, powered by the Rappit Suite, consisting of Rappit Developer for high productivity coding, Rappit Composer for no-code apps and workflows, and Rappit Undoc for intelligent document processing.

Leveraging a user-centric approach and agile methodology, HOYER and Rappit are working together as one team to develop a scalable system enabled for artificial intelligence and big data based on Google Cloud’s innovative and industry-leading technology.


Stefan Haverkock, director IT and digital, HOYER Group, added: “We choose Rappit for their strong domain knowledge building multiple Transportation Management Systems. They have a proven application development suite for building business-critical systems. HOYER seeks opportunities to further strengthen its position as a digital pioneer and deliver even more value to our customers.”
