Heavy-duty truck, engine, and bus manufacturer with North American fleet focus
International manufactures commercial trucks, engines, and buses for North American fleets, operating at scale with 10,000+ employees across manufacturing, engineering, and supply-chain functions. The tech stack reveals a mature manufacturing operation—heavy SAP footprint (FI-AR, MM, PS, CRM), industrial control systems (Siemens PLCs, KUKA, FANUC robotics), and CAD/simulation tools (NX, AutoCAD)—paired with active modernization: adopting React while phasing out ASP.NET Web Forms, and driving digital initiatives (ecommerce platform deployment, connected manufacturing).
