Tegos Group (legally tegos GmbH, headquartered in Dortmund, Germany) is a privately held vertical software vendor founded in 1996 that builds enterprise resource planning and operations software exclusively for the waste management, recycling, and metal/scrap trading industries. The company's flagship product is tegossuite, a cloud platform built natively on Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central that bundles two domain-specific modules — enwis (waste management and recycling operations covering weighing, disposition, accounting, order processing, quality control, and logistics) and comotor (metal and scrap trading with chemical analysis, forklift integration, transport modules, trader apps, and contact deposit management). Additional offerings include AIFlow for AI-based process optimization and a catalogue of add-on modules.

Tegos monetizes through a quote-based enterprise sales model combining recurring SaaS subscriptions tied to Microsoft Dynamics 365 licensing with attached professional services for implementation, customization, and ongoing customer success. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct, supported by an active Microsoft Solution Partner channel relationship, trade show presence (notably IFAT), multi-language digital marketing across German, English, French, and Dutch sites, and regional sales and support offices in Manchester (UK) and Breda (Netherlands). Customer segments are predominantly mid-market and enterprise waste disposal operators, recyclers, battery recyclers, scrap and metal traders, brokers, container services, and a smaller cohort of energy producers. The company is founder/management-led (Managing Directors Andreas Kullmann and Ralf Linnemann), holds Microsoft Solution Partner status in Business Applications, maintains GDPR-compliant operations, and counts over 400 customers across 25 countries with 18,000+ users on the platform.

Broad incumbents

• SAP: Global ERP incumbent whose sustainability and industry cloud offerings (e.g., S/4HANA for resources industries) overlap with Tegos's positioning; represents the broader alternative customers may evaluate against a Tegos vertical add-on.
• Infor: Industry-cloud ERP vendor with dedicated distribution and resource industry solutions that compete for the same ERP-plus-vertical-functionality budget Tegos targets on Dynamics 365 BC.
• Descartes Systems Group: Logistics, route optimization, and compliance SaaS vendor with exposure to waste and recycling fleets; overlaps with Tegos's container services and routing use cases for European mid-market enterprises.

Direct peers

• AMCS Group: Ireland-based AMCS is a leading global vertical SaaS provider for the waste, recycling, and resource industries — directly competing with Tegos across enterprise waste management software, transportation/logistics, and customer-facing operations. Most direct competitor in product scope and target verticals.
• Ortec: Dutch software vendor providing optimization and planning solutions for waste collection, recycling, and logistics — overlapping with Tegos's enwis and logistics functionality and serving similar European enterprise waste/recycling customers.

Emerging players

• VelocityEHS: Mid-market EHS/ESG software vendor addressing waste management compliance and sustainability reporting; competes for adjacent budget around regulatory compliance that Tegos addresses within its circular economy suite.
• Enablon (Wolters Kluwer): EHS and sustainability management software suite owned by Wolters Kluwer; competes for the ESG/sustainability reporting wallet that intersects with circular economy operations tracked by Tegos's tegossuite.
• Ramco Systems: Cloud ERP vendor with waste management and resource industry modules targeting mid-market enterprises; competes for the same ERP-plus-vertical-software budget Tegos pursues in Europe.

Others

• EcoVadis: Sustainability ratings and supply chain ESG intelligence provider; tangential peer serving the same circular economy customers on the sustainability reporting/ESG side, often alongside operational software like Tegos.
• Workiva: Sustainability and ESG reporting platform; complementary rather than directly competing, but increasingly part of the software stack circular economy customers buy for compliance and reporting alongside Tegos's operational systems.
