New IT Organization Supports Long-Term Strategy
Stockholm Exergi began working with IFS in early 2021, after being sold to a consortium of European investors—the perfect opportunity to modernize IT and data infrastructure.
Before: Legacy Constraints
Under old ownership, Stockholm Exergi had to share IT services, using a multitude of legacy systems and an IT model that was not well suited for operations.
After: Standalone IT Organization
Today, Stockholm Exergi is a standalone IT organization with IFS serving as the platform across finance, supply chain, HR, project management, asset management, and maintenance.
Industry Transformation
Although stable for many years, the energy sector has seen increased volatility due to global warming, geopolitical factors, and the transition to green energy which has led to rising fuel prices and difficult supply chains. As a result, the sector is undergoing fundamental change.
To protect and grow its market share, Stockholm Exergi is aiming to become an energy partner to new and existing customers, expanding its portfolio with competitive and sustainable products while broadening its services scope. To achieve these goals, the company required a stable, cloud-based ERP.
A Collaborative Partnership
With a new IT organization and a large scope of work, Stockholm Exergi needed help to implement and drive the project.
"IFS will be our core partner, ensuring we have a functional platform and allowing us to focus on strategic and tactical conversations. Leadership can concentrate on the next business case, supported by a more professional roadmap."
— Jimmy Renström, CIO, Stockholm Exergi
