A history of excellence

In the LOGISTRA best practice: Innovations 2022 readers’ poll, we took first place in the telematics and navigation category with OPHEO 7, the latest version of our dispatching and transport management software.

Every two years, the trade magazine from HUSS-VERLAG asks its readers about the most exciting innovations and at the same time future-proof solutions in transport and intralogistics.

In 2020, we were awarded the renowned Telematik Award for the second time, by the media group Telematik-Markt.de. With our combined AI and telematics solution consisting of OPHEO roadEngine + OPHEO MOBILE we have

convinced the jury. The synergy of both solutions enables our customers to automate their dispatching – up to a completely autonomous control by OPHEO.

We have been recognized for our family-friendly HR policy by the “Hamburg Alliance for Families”, an initiative of the Hamburg Senate, and the Chamber of Commerce and the Chamber of Crafts.

The Hamburg Family Seal confirms Opheo Solutions as an employer particularly committed to the compatibility of family and career.

For our Telematics solution we have been continuously awarded as TOP PROVIDER since 2013

and are accordingly listed in the “TOPLIST of Telematics”.

In 2014, we won the Telematics Award in the main category “Fleet Telematics” for our OPHEO solution. OPHEO was awarded for its innovative forecasting function. The Telematik Award recognizes outstanding development achievements and solutions in the field of telematics.

By honouring these TOP providers, the organizer, the media group Telematik-Markt.de, is pursuing the goal of making the telematics industry more transparent, better known and easier to understand for users, as well as presenting future trends using examples of best practice.
