Finnish green energy specialist, Fortum, has implemented the enwis software solution from the tegos Group for the digital mapping of the business processes in its new recycling division, Fortum Recycling & Waste Solutions, and as the basis for an extensive IT infrastructure.

According to enwis, despite a tight schedule, the project managers on both sides are pleased with the successful implementation in its Swedish business, and looks forward o the next phase of the project – the roll-out of the new system in Finland and Denmark.
As a green energy company and the third-largest energy producer in Scandinavia, Fortum offers solutions in the areas of electricity, heating, cooling as well as solutions for the sustainable use of resources.

Three years ago, Fortum entered the waste management and recycling sector under the Fortum Recycling & Waste Solutions brand with the purchase of hazardous waste disposal specialist Ekokem.

Fortum Recycling & Waste Solutions was looking for suitable software providers to help building a multi-system digital infrastructure that would be implemented first in Sweden and then in other countries. For the “transaction engine” part Fortum decided to work with the tegos Group.

“The particular challenge initially lay in harmonising the different requirements and working methods of the three sister companies in Sweden, Finland and Denmark and defining a standard process,” Tristan Küsters, project manager at the tegos Group, said.

Despite the intention to “keep it as simple as possible but still support the most important business needs” i.e. to introduce the MVP (Minimum Viable Product), enwis, as the transaction core of the new digital infrastructure, nevertheless had to cover as many areas of activity and business requirements as possible.

Thanks to the second principle of “no development”, the solution could also be implemented within a relatively short period of 15 months, considering the required scope of the project. In order to succeed with the MVP approach and within the tight schedule, an immense effort was said to have been needed in terms of Fortum’s internal work, consulting and coordination.

“Thanks to our agile project approach with three-week sprints in which consultants for different systems and customers business rep came together and as a group presented the results of the sprints, the project team was able to guarantee successful and on-schedule project handling,” said Küsters.

Tuomas Tommola, Program Director added: “We have had no major issues and I would even say minor ones have been fewer than expected as well. Of course, it has meant more effort in our daily work, but due to the excellent co-operation of the tegos team together with other system suppliers as well as Fortum project team, the go-live of our new system has been a big success.”
