Collaboration for sustainable agile development
In our agile processes, the collaboration between all parties involved is paramount. We facilitate this by providing an exciting and accessible environment both in our clubhouse as well as our online meetings. Everyone is encouraged to speak their minds to improve collaboration through mutual growth
Cultivating High-Performing teams and agile workspaces
We build Squads, Chapters and Guilds around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need and trust them to get the job done. We believe that the best requirements, procedures, and software design emerge from self-organizing teams. The most efficient and effective method of conveying information to and within a squad is face-to-face conversation, to facilitate this we built our dream clubhouse where everyone can come together to excel! Our attention to technical excellence and great design enhances agility. Simplicity, the art of maximizing the amount of work not done, is essential. At regular intervals, everyone in our organization reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts their behavior accordingly.

Our history
From the beginning, our core business involved developing software solutions for the logistics sector. Driven by a passion for software and transport, we have consistently focused our organization on innovative software solutions. Working according to agile and scrum principles, fostering deep engagement with colleagues & clients, and working with a focus on results are ingrained in our DNA
Garage start-up
We were founded in 1995 - in a garage -under the name COMM-IT and built innovative solutions together with Eurovos logistics. Even back then we used some of the current agile principles, we rapidly developed solutions, discussed them with the customer, and immediately incorporated any adjustments into the process. It was in this very garage that the foundation for the modern Transfusion was laid.
From 1998: Inforit
Due to some conflicts regarding businesses with a similar name, we’ve had to change our name. The first change happened in 1998 when we become known as COMBIT BV, which was still confusing so eventually we settled on Inforit. During our time as Inforit we expanded our logistics software offering, we went through rapid and explosive growth which led to us recruiting professionals both local and abroad. A practice we still honor to this day.
Tremendous growth
In 2007, Den Hartogh Logistics acquired a stake in our company. Later, in 2019, the H&S Group joined them as co-owners of Inforit. These partnerships provided us with the opportunity to continue innovating and growing in the ever-changing market. Since then, we have experienced tremendous growth yet again and have partnered with a nearsourcing company based in Romania but with Dutch roots.
FRONTLINERS
Recognizing that our image no longer aligned with our current identity we started working diligently on market positioning, a new suitable name, and a refreshed visual identity. Today, as Frontliners, we work with over 100 professionals on revolutionary software solutions for our clients.
