Ready to transform raw data into valuable business opportunities?

Right now, great service solutions are often delivered one site at a time—even though many other customers with similar system configurations could benefit from the exact same solution. We want to change that game, unlock untapped revenue, and deliver proactive value across our entire global installed base.
In this graduation project, you will design and build an intelligent, automated tool that connects installed base data and previously successful service projects to generate instant sales leads and ready-to-use quotes. By automatically linking system specifications with pricing and solution logic, you will directly cut sales lead times and revolutionize our proactive service delivery. You will also pitch and demonstrate your completed solution to key stakeholders, showing first-hand how your tool makes a real commercial impact!
Department description
You will join the Service Distribution North EMEA department, which focuses on service projects and service orders for parcel customers across the Benelux and Nordics. You will collaborate closely with team members involved in selling and executing service activities.
