Apps Purchases: 10+ Million Software Purchases
Founded in 2010, APPS RUN THE WORLD is a leading technology intelligence and market-research company devoted to the application space. Leveraging a rigorous data-centric research methodology, we ask the simple B2B sales intelligence question: Who’s buying enterprise applications from whom and why?
Our global team of 50 researchers has been studying the digital transformation initiatives being undertaken by 2 million + companies including technographic segmentation of 10 million ERP, EPM, CRM, HCM, Procurement, SCM, Treasury software purchases, aggregating massive amounts of data points that form the basis of our forecast assumptions and perhaps the rise and fall of certain vendors and their products on a quarterly basis.
Apps Run The World Buyer Insight and Technographics Customer Database has over 100 data fields that detail company usage of emerging technologies such as AI, Machine Learning, IoT, Blockchain, Autonomous Database, and different on-prem and cloud apps by function, customer size (employees, revenues), industry, country, implementation status, year deal won, partner involvement, Line of Business Key Stakeholders and key decision-makers contact details, including the systems being used by Fortune 1000 and Global 2000 companies.

MTU Aero Engines | Manufacturing | 12170 | $5.4B | Germany | INFORM GmbH | INFORM SyncroTESS | Transportation Management,Inventory Management | 1993 | n/a | In 1993, MTU Aero Engines deployed INFORM SyncroTESS as its central intralogistics and transport control system in Germany, aligning operational processes with Transportation Management,Inventory Management workflows. The implementation was scoped to optimize multi stage internal transport chains and to improve delivery reliability across MTU’s German intralogistics network. INFORM SyncroTESS was configured to centralize transport order orchestration, route sequencing, scheduling and inventory movement coordination, reflecting core Transportation Management,Inventory Management capabilities. The application operates as a control layer for internal material flows, applying automation to multi stage transport handoffs and order prioritization. Operationally the system handles approximately 560,000 transport orders per year and functions as the central intralogistics control point for sites in Germany, supporting cross functional logistics and production feeding processes. The implementation emphasizes centralized processing of transport orders and synchronized movement between production, staging and shipping areas. Governance has been long running, with the system in continuous use since 1993, and reporting shows an increase in internal delivery reliability from 89 percent to 93 percent after implementation of the control processes managed by INFORM SyncroTESS. The narrative reflects structured intralogistics orchestration, transport control and inventory movement management under the Transportation Management,Inventory Management category. | |

CLAAS | Manufacturing | 12131 | $6.9B | Germany | INFORM GmbH | INFORM SyncroTESS | Transportation Management,Inventory Management | 2023 | n/a | In 2023, CLAAS upgraded to INFORM SyncroTESS to manage and optimize in-plant transport for assembly operations in Germany. The implementation targeted Transportation Management,Inventory Management and was scoped to orchestrate roughly 8,200 internal transports daily to support just-in-sequence production and assembly line material flow. The deployment leveraged the SYNCROTESS tugger-train planning module to schedule multi-stop runs, assign vehicles and sequence deliveries into production lines. Configuration work focused on transport order orchestration, route and shift planning, and rule-based sequencing to align tugger-train movements with assembly takt and material staging requirements. Operational coverage was concentrated on CLAAS assembly operations in Germany, with the system controlling in-plant transport execution and aligning transport schedules to assembly sequencing and material provisioning processes. The implementation emphasized orchestration of material flow into just-in-sequence lines rather than integration with specific external systems. The release was an upgrade to the latest SYNCROTESS version to address rising complexity in intralogistics, with rollout activities centered on tuning tugger-train planning parameters and transport orchestration rules for assembly lines. The stated objective of the INFORM SyncroTESS implementation was to better handle increasing complexity and improve material flow and tugger-train planning within CLAAS production operations. | |
