Sweden’s most visited house

Jernhusen

Jernhusen owns 37 station buildings of different sizes, from Malmö Central Station in the south to Katterjåkk train stop in the north. The stations are managed and developed to be efficient interchange points where the right range of services and offerings create comfort, safety and a simpler everyday life. Together with another property owner, they also operate waiting rooms in hundreds of stations across Sweden. On average, half a million people visit the station buildings every day. Jernhusen’s mission is to keep the stations pleasant, safe, and functional so that collective travel is an attractive option. An essential part of this is the cost management system, where the existing solution lacked important functionalities to meet the needs. As part of the journey with a new system solution, they also chose to make a technological and performance upgrade.

The human code

From individual quality to collective sustainability. When we take on a project, we always look at the end user. Who will benefit from what we do? Everything is connected. When our systems are efficient and support the business, the processes become more efficient. With Jernhusen we create a better, more sustainable, and even quality for all the 500,000 people who choose to travel in a greener way every day - regardless of station and waiting room.

The social code

From isolated cost management > to an interconnected system. A stable platform with the right IT support provides great security in Jernhusen's mission, so what can we do to create a better, faster and more stable process? We started by developing a specific solution and then continued to develop and manage more parts of Jernhusen's environment and system flora. Introducing an agile way of working and moving from a traditional development model to a more DevOps-like management and development flow has taken the customer to a new level in its mission to maintain well-being, efficiency, and functionality so that collective travel is an attractive alternative.

The digital code

Considering how systems affect everyday life, infrastructure, and behavior is part of taking delivery responsibility. It is also about what is most suitable based on the history and direction that has been chosen. Here, we chose to continue in a .Net environment but have taken it further with a modern architecture and methodology that creates flexibility going forward. For this, we put together a team that worked agiley from idea to finished solution in close collaboration with the customer who was involved in the ongoing sprints.
