CEP-Research becomes part of ITA Consulting
ITA Logistics, the operator of CEP-Research, has announced the formation of a new subsidiary under the name of ITA Consulting GmbH with effect from June 1, 2008. CEP-Research is now part of ITA Consulting.
ITA Consulting incorporates ITA’s management consulting, IT solutions and market intelligence (CEP-Research) business units. It has been set up as a commercial partnership and the management has been extended to include Peter Weber. The company base remains in Hamburg and all previous contact details, including for CEP-Research, stay the same.
The formation of ITA Consulting is due to the excellent development in recent years of the consulting business of ITA Logistics. A large number of projects in the areas of M&A, Business Intelligence and Supply Chain Management contributed to the success. With 30 employees, ITA Consulting advises globally operating industrial companies and logistics service providers on strategy & development, mergers & acquisitions, process optimisation, transport management systems, business intelligence as well as sourcing & procurement.
Peter Weber (40) has been appointed as managing director of ITA Consulting and joins the two founding partners Mark and Boris Winkelmann on its management board. Peter Weber has been with ITA since 2005 and has successfully managed the Software and IT development division of the company. He studied IT at the University of Paderborn and has held management positions with Bertelsmann Distribution and Active Logistics prior to joining the company.
The management consultancy ITA Logistics GmbH, which is specialised in the logistics sector, will in future function as the parent company of the two subsidiaries ITA Consulting GmbH and ITA Shipping GmbH (which runs the online platform LetMeShip.com).
