Distribusion Wins Tender to Support the Development of a New Multi-Carrier Sales Solution for Deutsche Bahn

BERLIN, GERMANY (September 24, 2024) Distribusion Technologies has won the tender to develop a multi-carrier sales solution, enabling Deutsche Bahn to supplement their portfolio with international rail connections outside of Germany such as SBB, Trenitalia, SNCF, and ÖBB. 

The new interface leverages the Open Sales and Distribution Model (OSDM) standard to provide the necessary services such as price collection, booking, ticket delivery, rebooking and cancellation directly from the DB selling system.

Thomas Doering, CEO of Distribusion Technologies - “We are excited to deliver this crucial  IT infrastructure component to support Deutsche Bahn’s sales of international rail carriers. Utilising the OSDM standard in this exciting project promotes greater standardisation while its feature depth greatly improves the booking and post sales process for customers.”

The solution is based on Distribusion’s new OSDM-Connector, which allows simplified cross-selling amongst European rail carriers. In other words, this allows carriers to consume and retail any other European rail carrier and at the same time offer the standard to any retailing body. Additionally, Distribusion's extensive content offering provides access to hundreds of worldwide rail, bus, and public transportation offerings out of the box.
