Girteka Logistics is the biggest European FTL (Full Truck Load) transportation company operating in Europe, Scandinavia and CIS with over 7,000 trucks and 7,300 trailers.
Girteka Logistics, Europe’s leading asset-based Transport Company, has tapped SAP for a complete end-to-end transportation management solution to digitalise its business and operations.
Martynas Sarapinas, CIO at Girteka Logistics, said:
“Girteka Logistics redefines the trucking industry. Together with SAP as strategic partner we can increase our business productivity and streamline our internal processes while laying the foundation for an unrivaled quality of transportation management to our customers. Together we are accelerating the digitalization journey of the entire transportation industry.”
As part of the company’s ambitious 2025 growth vision and digital transformation, Girteka Logistics will be integrating SAP’s core and industry-specific business technology platforms and solutions to its system.
The ERP expert SAP will establish a complete digital framework at Girteka Logistics, making an impact across its 18,000 professionals and all business areas across Europe and CIS. The SAP solutions include but are not limited to finance, pricing, contract and order management; subcontracting, planning, warehouse management, dispatch scheduling, load matching, and customer service and support. The standardized and fully integrated solution is anticipated to accelerate the accuracy and efficiency of Girteka Logistics transportation services by streamlining and automating the complex logistics process.
For over two decades, the European logistics company has focused on long-term investments in people, performance, and processes, to ensure that they continue to be a reliable modern transport and logistics partner.
Edvardas Liachovičius, CEO of Girteka Logistics stated:
“Our customers want to maximize their return on transportation spend by consolidating with bigger and more advanced logistics providers. Girteka Logistics is stepping up to meet growing demand for high transparency and efficiency in transporting big volumes of goods at competitive cost, while at the same time supporting our customers to deliver an excellent experience to their end customers.”
Brian Duffy, President of SAP EMEA North, Shared:
“SAP wants to pave the future of logistics with innovation and technology and become a catalyst to meet market demand for strategic digital transportation services in Europe. In the experience economy, simply moving things from point A to point B will no longer be enough. Transportation companies have a critical role to play as data integrators, connecting the dots along the supply chain. Together, we can lead the way.”
In 2019, ARC Advisory Group, the top technology market research firm for cities, industries, infrastructures, and manufacturing, has identified SAP as the top vendor of the Transportation Management Systems market which they have put into two categories: fleet management and planning and execution.
