Our History.

1995
Under the ELITE endowment, an initiative of the RWTH Aachen University (Prof. Sebastian) and Deutsche Post (German Post), a planning system was developed for the pick-up and linehaul of the mail transport within Germany which exists even today.
1999
Through the collaboration of Prof. Sebastian, Dr. Tore Grünert and Michael Thärigen at the RWTH Aachen University, the company gts systems and consulting gmbh was founded in 1999.
2001
Through our focus on Oracle databases for the planning systems developed by us and the related know-how, we became an Oracle partner from very early on.
2007
The comprehensive know-how that we had gathered while developing customer-specific planning software and in our consulting projects in logistics was the perfect foundation for our very first, in-house development: the route planning software TransIT.
2007
The prefab house manufacturer, SchwörerHaus KG, was the first customer to deploy TransIT to dispatch its service staff using the software.
2009
The first TransIT customer outside Germany was the Austrian company, Kaindl, which plans Europe-wide distribution of wood products using our software.
2017
Ein hoch qualifiziertes Team ist für über 200 Kunden in mehr als 10 Ländern im Einsatz.
2024
gts celebrates its 25th anniversary. The company is the technological market leader for route planning and a successful MATSE training company.
