– CARL TÖNSETH, BUSINESS MANAGER IOT & AI, SWEDEN

BACKGROUND

Uddevalla Municipality, nestled in Västra Götaland County, Sweden, with a population of around 57,000, is renowned for its high-quality digital services. Despite this reputation, challenges such as disjointed data sources and non-searchable paper trails have hindered efficiency, particularly impacting local businesses. Uddevalla Municipality has embarked on a transformative partnership with Holisticon Insight (Nexer Insight) to confront these obstacles head-on.

CHALLENGE

The municipality grappled with various hurdles in its data management and retrieval systems. Chief among these was the difficulty consolidating disparate data sources, which hindered actionable insights. Moreover, non-searchable analogue document trails and scattered digital services complicate information retrieval, creating a maze for business owners to navigate rules and permits.

SOLUTION

Recognising the need for a robust data management system, Uddevalla initiated a comprehensive solution. A Modern Data Platform powered by Microsoft and Databricks took centre stage, seamlessly integrating diverse data sources while ensuring regulatory compliance. Digitising the HCL handbook and deploying an Azure OpenAI-powered solution streamlined access to essential information.

Collaborating with Holisticon Insight (Nexer Insight), they crafted the “my pages” solution, simplifying navigation for business owners. Integration of an intelligent chatbot further enhanced user experience, addressing queries promptly.

BENEFITS & RESULTS

The implemented solution yielded significant benefits. Azure Databricks facilitated comprehensive insights, while automatic document analysis streamlined management. “My pages” became a central hub for business owners, enhancing user experience, and the chatbot improved interaction, boosting satisfaction. Leveraging Microsoft technologies ensured scalability and future readiness, positioning Uddevalla at the forefront of innovation. Compliance with high governance standards was maintained, and digitisation efforts enhanced accessibility and efficiency.

These benefits and results demonstrate significant potential for the broader deployment of the camera system across other job sites to strengthen worker safety and promote a safety culture in the construction industry.

Uddevalla Municipality successfully navigated its challenges, leveraging Microsoft’s partnership to advance its digitalisation journey. Azure Databricks laid the foundation for a scalable Modern Data Platform, and Azure OpenAI enabled cutting-edge citizen services. The project exemplifies collaborative innovation across municipal departments, showcasing the transformative power of teamwork.
