TELOGS

What TELOGS does

TELOGS GmbH is a privately held, owner-managed German intralogistics service company founded in September 2000 by Jürgen Dönges and Stephan Neef and headquartered in Wettenberg, Hesse. The company provides vendor-neutral maintenance, modernization, technical consulting and 24/7 hotline support for automated stacker cranes (Regalbediengeräte) and conveyor technology (Fördertechnik) across all original equipment manufacturers, addressing the operational challenge of operators managing heterogeneous equipment fleets. Its service portfolio is organized into three pillars: Technical Consulting (condition reports, variance analysis, modernization strategies), Intralogistics Projects (new installations, extensions, RetroFit modernization and mechanical modifications, including general contractor execution), and Manufacturer-Neutral Service (maintenance, testing, repair, spare parts supply and hotline support). The company also operates TELOGS Campus, an in-house training and certification program launched in 2020.

The technical foundation rests on two proprietary assets: in-house PLC programs (SPS-Programme) for stacker cranes and conveyor systems, and the 'Distance' stacker crane software developed on the Siemens TIA portal in 2018, which improves operational safety, spare parts availability and energy efficiency. The firm has completed more than 350 projects over 25 years and holds named relationships with enterprises such as Rhenus, Bosch, Siemens, Viessmann, SMS group, WOFI, ALTERNATE, Meggle and LTS Nordwest, supported by service centers in Wettenberg, Steinhagen and Ludwigsfelde. Strategic partnerships include a 2019 service agreement with LTW Intralogistics GmbH and a 2026 Vector Award (Top 50 Igus Applications) for energy supply engineering.

TELOGS operates a project-based, quote-driven professional services and managed services revenue model with no public pricing. It goes to market through direct enterprise field sales led by a dedicated project sales head, supported by on-site service technicians, a 24/7 hotline, industry events and technical content marketing. The company remains 100% founder-owned with no external investors, no subsidiaries, and a headcount of approximately 65 employees as of 2025. Geographic focus is Germany (core, two-thirds of projects) with additional EU and worldwide project delivery on customer request.
