Descartes Systems Group, a global leader in uniting logistics-intensive businesses in commerce, announced it will participate in the International SAP Conference for Transportation and Logistics 2012, being held July 12-13 at SAP University in St. Leon Rot, Germany.

Descartes is scheduled to showcase its cloud-based Global Logistics Network (GLN) integrated with the SAP® Transportation Management application, enabling connectivity to air carriers and freight forwarders and access to Descartes’ software-as-a-services (SaaS) solutions for air cargo booking, cross-border-security filing and shipment-status messaging. Through this integration, customers can receive the critical and timely logistics information needed from carriers, logistics services providers, customs house brokers, regulatory agencies and other trading partners to gain greater visibility into their supply chain operations.

In addition, Steve Parker, Head Customs & Brokerage-Europe at DHL Global Forwarding, will be presenting with Chris Jones, executive vice president, Marketing and Services at Descartes, on the topic “Evolving the Business Network — Extending SAP Solutions Into the Logistics Cloud.”
