Industriunderhåll AB
About the project
Industriunderhåll in Kungsäter carries out maintenance, repairs, assembly/installation and dismantling/moving for industrial companies in paper, pulp and sawmills. Through its subsidiary KG Mekaniska, it also carries out mechanical processing, sheet metal processing, welding and the manufacture of various steel structures.
Avisita has been helping Industriunderhåll with accommodation booking since 2015. Ann-Sofie Borglund, CEO of Industriunderhåll, says that the accommodation issue is important for the staff who travel for work and have done for several years, she also points out that the staff are away from family and their normal life during the weeks and therefore deserve to live well.
As a subcontractor during major maintenance shutdowns, it is difficult to find accommodation. Rooms are sold out and there are a limited number of facilities, finding alternatives takes time and is expensive. Ann-Sofie says that when Avisita books, it ensures the right location and price.
"It makes it cheaper both for us and for the industry/customer itself, which in many cases pays for the accommodation. Avisita is a cost-effective option that also feels good for our staff."
Ann-Sofie books the projects that can be planned via Avisita, and says that it is a relief for her to make the booking at an early stage and have the booking confirmation sent to her. The confirmation is good for getting control of the total cost of the accommodation at an early stage.
