The transportation platform Trans.eu has appointed a new head for the DACH region. Michael Otto, an experienced computer scientist with over twenty years of experience in developing and implementing digital solutions in the logistics industry, will take over the role.
“On the Trans.eu platform, we can already solve many challenges faced by freight forwarders and carriers that are insurmountable with a traditional TMS. Through partnerships with TMS systems, we can become an AI-based assistant for dispatchers and reduce the boundaries between the contract and spot market,” announced the new CEO.
‘Connecting People – Connecting Freight’ is the philosophy under which the company aims to establish itself definitively as a central transportation platform across Europe under his leadership. According to Otto, the German market plays a key role in this endeavor.
“The logistics location of Germany will continue to influence the European economy due to its central location. With our platform, we support the
companies based here in leveraging the full economic potential within the European Union and beyond, thereby gaining advantages in the
transportation market,” he added.
Otto initially carried out numerous successful outsourcing projects as a project manager in the mid-sized business environment and was responsible for the conception, further development, and marketing of proven and innovative software solutions. His extensive background in the logistics sector includes developing strategic initiatives that streamlined operations and introduced advanced technological solutions.
After holding several senior positions up to management from 2000 to 2022, he has been working independently as a consultant for the past year and a half. In this capacity, he assists internationally operating companies with digitalization, process automation, corporate governance, optimal team composition and development, growth financing, as well as business development and M&A tasks. His comprehensive approach ensures that companies not only implement digital solutions but also achieve sustainable growth and operational efficiency.
