SYNAOS, a leading provider of intralogistics software platforms for intelligent material flow management, today announced a strategic partnership with NFQ Asia, a renowned digital and deep-tech consultancy with a strong presence in Asia.

This collaboration marks a significant milestone in SYNAOS‘ global expansion strategy, following its successful market entry in the United States. 

NFQ is known for its expertise in digital transformation and innovation, helping companies strengthen their industry leadership. With extensive experience in advising companies across e-commerce, mobility, and transport & logistics, NFQ offers tailored solutions for optimizing business processes and implementing advanced technologies. Through the collaboration with SYNAOS, NFQ expands its intralogistics portfolio, delivering innovative solutions to customers in Southeast Asia. 

"After experiencing significant growth and increased demand for centralized intralogistics fleet management software from customers in the United States, we are now seeing a surge in inquiries from Asia. We are excited to partner with NFQ to address this market together," says Dr. Wolfgang Hackenberg, CEO and co-founder of SYNAOS. "Our joint customers will benefit from NFQ’s deep market knowledge and consulting expertise, combined with SYNAOS‘ technological leadership in intralogistics." 

Lars Jankowfsky, Founder of NFQ, adds: "Automation is not just a trend—it is a tool. And like any tool, it only works when engineers, end-users, and decision-makers align to solve real problems. I am thrilled about this important strategic partnership, which represents a major step toward optimizing industrial production—particularly in Southeast Asia, Japan, and China." 

Jankowfsky emphasizes that the partnership goes beyond mere automation: "It is about transforming factories into seamlessly integrated, intelligent ecosystems. By leveraging AI-powered orchestration and open API standards such as VDA 5050, we will revolutionize how robots, forklifts, and human operators work together. For our customers, this means reduced downtime, minimized overload, and improved real-time operational transparency."
