Success Story
FlixBus
Do these requirements sound familiar?
We have been working with FLIXBUS as part of a collaborative and integrated team since 2016—and with FLIXTRAIN as well since 2019. FlixBus is a unique combination of a tech startup, an internet company, and a traditional transportation provider, and operates an international long-distance bus network in numerous European markets.
Under the FlixTrain brand, the company has also been offering rail services and intermodal transportation since 2018.
The constant growth of the company leads to an expansion of fleets and a global extension of partner alliances. In our solution-oriented collaboration, we provide all FlixBus and partner companies with digital access to corporate identity-compliant workwear and the extensive range of bus accessories and hardware items.
We have developed an efficient, globally rolled-out online ordering portal for bus drivers' uniforms, bus accessories, and hardware items. By now, we supply FlixBus worldwide, with Global Partner Shops in 33 countries.
Due to the international nature of FlixBus, the digital ordering portal has been adapted into 16
languages, providing partners with access to various product items worldwide, some in pre-budgeted
quantities. Variable access rights ensure country-specific requirements are met. The worldwide orders are placed online at the central warehouse and are shipped internationally via freight or parcel service.
Together, we have further developed the relevant logistics processes and integrated the IT systems into the process landscape. We generate all necessary documents, from the purchase order to the invoice. Accounting and reporting data, as well as tracking and inventory information, are exchanged between us and the customer via secure data connections. Comprehensive inventory management, including the calculation of key performance indicators for planning calculations, is also an integral part of this long-standing collaboration, which spans consulting, IT implementation, fulfillment, and global logistics.
