    Solteq to provide Gasum with enterprise resource planning in maintenance and field service as part of ERP renewal

    Gas company Gasum has procured a maintenance and field service solution from Solteq called Solteq Solax, which is part of the new Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 ERP system. Gasum will utilise Solax as an ERP system module in which it is possible to manage maintenance and servicing information relating to the gas transmission network, stations and the transmission and distribution of gas.

    Gasum wishes to develop into a leading provider of renewable, Finnish biogas and to diversify the use of gases in industry and land and sea transport, for example. The gas transmission network plays an important part in the implementation of the strategy, and a significant part of the company's investments focus on its upkeep and development.

    "Our aim is to standardise our operating methods and expand our range of service to both existing and new fields. Solteq's Solax system holds a key position in our customer service and in making the management of work and resources more efficient in a networked operating environment.  As an ERP system module, Solax offers us the opportunity to more flexibly utilise information coming from the field in the development of operations", explains Gasum Director Ari Suomilammi.

    Solteq offers solutions for both ERP and financial management, as well as field-specific specialist solutions which function independently or can be integrated into the solutions.  Solteq is particularly specialised in the maintenance, repair and field service area as a vertical integrated supplier of the Microsoft Dynamics AX system.  In accordance with Solteq's strategy, we guarantee our customers continuity with the solutions in use, and create the future by introducing new technologies applicable to the changing needs of operations.

    "Gasum is a long-term maintenance ERP system customer of ours, and we are honoured to be able to supply them with a Solax solution based on new technology, which will support Gasum's future operating targets.  The vertical market solutions which can be connected to the ERP system will bring the organisation a competitive advantage by enabling them to take the special needs of their own field into account.  Together with our partners, we can offer our customers comprehensive competence and scale to large supply projects, too", explains Veli Nikkola, head of the Solax Business Unit at Solteq Plc.
