Case Study: TÜV Rheinland achieves streamlined global media monitoring and faster crisis response with Meltwater News

From Crises to Competitors, TÜV Rheinland Keeps Closer Eye on the Market

TÜV Rheinland, a global inspection and testing firm with ~14,500 employees across 61 countries and roughly 500 locations, faced a major challenge keeping up with breaking news from diverse markets using a centralized press office. The team relied on daily Google News searches but needed a faster, more precise way to surface stories affecting the company and its competitors and to produce a concise 10am newsletter for 150 internal recipients.

By adopting Meltwater News, TÜV Rheinland automated global media monitoring, easily refined keyword searches, and generated a one-click curated newsletter of the 20–30 most relevant stories—sorted by territory and published to the intranet. The new workflow produced timelier, more targeted coverage for crisis response and PR evaluation, kept stakeholders informed without mass emails, and significantly reduced the time and effort spent on news monitoring.
