Tieto to deliver Kalmar’s new global eCommerce solution
Tieto has been chosen as Kalmar’s partner to expand and enhance its future B2B eCommerce platform. The new solution from Tieto forms an integrated selling platform for Kalmar with better collaboration and enhanced user experience for customers worldwide. With this implementation, Kalmar seeks to increase their online sales and reduce sales administration.
Cargo handling solutions and services provider Kalmar, part of Cargotec, has chosen Tieto as its partner in realising a worldwide spare parts eCommerce and service portal. The new solution is built with SAP Hybris technology and it will replace Kalmar’s current eCommerce system.
- This tool is for our customers. They will be provided with a modern, user-friendly experience and an access to well targeted and relevant content to further improve their operational efficiency. The new tool will boost our digital transformation and future online sales. We are confident with the choice of Tieto, as they have a wide experience in digital commerce and a deep knowledge of the SAP Hybris platform, says Seppo Heino, Vice President, Parts and Logistics at Kalmar.
The SAP Hybris eCommerce platform will be integrated into Kalmar’s enterprise resource planning and background systems provided by companies such as SalesForce.
- This is a natural continuation of our long partnership with Kalmar. As a part of Tieto’s Industrial Experience offering, we can help Kalmar in a wider sense in the development and management of the digital customer experience. The manufacturing industry and digitizing the customer experience in a B2B context for online stores are important for us, and our aim is also to grow in these areas. This cooperation will enhance our reputation as the leading operator in the field, says Jaakko Hartikainen, Head of Customer Experience Management, Tieto.
The product range of Tieto covers, in addition to the realisation of eCommerce, field service tools, mobile services, analytics, customer and product information management, as well as customer service, tools, both integrated and as whole concepts.
Tieto’s Industrial Experience solutions offer an all-encompassing approach to the digitalisation of the customer journey for B2B companies. Combined with the multi-channel digital commerce solution experience of Smilehouse, acquired by Tieto in December 2015, Tieto is able to offer comprehensive tools for managing the digital customer experience.
