Case Study: DB Cargo AG improves tender management transparency and efficiency with Camunda

DB Cargo AG reduces purchasing process time to a few hours with Camunda

DB Cargo AG, one of Europe’s leading rail freight transport providers, needed a more transparent and efficient way to manage international tendering and contract processes after changes in antitrust rules made the old workflow unworkable. The company was using its HiPPS contract management software, but still faced limited transparency, decentralized pricing, and process bottlenecks.

Camunda integrated its process orchestration platform, including BPMN-based process modeling, into HiPPS to centralize and automate the workflow from inquiry to contract. With Camunda, DB Cargo gained end-to-end visibility, reduced manual email handling, improved pricing comparability, and cut some process times to just a few hours, while also making the contract process faster and more transparent for customers.
