“Advania has experience of creating and changing complex platforms for different companies in many different industries and operations. Sweden's municipalities are examples of organizations with high complexity, several different types of activities and platforms for school, administration, politicians, and also for municipal residents. All parts must be reviewed in a change project to achieve the desired result. Advania has built up experience for many years through several major projects which is a requirement when several municipalities are to build a new common infrastructure that Herrljunga and Vårgårda municipality intend to introduce”, says Björn Mogensen, Chief Solution Architect, Advania Sverige.
