In February 2012, George Mastakas, Vice President of Enterprise Solutions, visited the offices of Esri Sweden in Kista, a suburb of Stockholm. There are currently three Cityworks clients in Sweden: Stockholm Water, the City of Gävle, and MittSverige Water.
While there, Mastakas attended the Esri Sweden User Conference and met with Sales Manager, Peter Schöldsten, Marketing Manager, Håkan Nordlund, and Björn Holm from Professional Services. Having made some significant adjustments in their corporate structure, Nordlund and Schöldsten outlined the changes to distribute and support third party products and services, such as Cityworks. Like several other Esri International Distributors, Esri Sweden sees benefits in partnering with third-party Esri developers whose products extend ArcGIS. This model has proven effective, allowing them to focus on their core ArcGIS business while meeting specific market needs with products such as Cityworks.
Like their counterparts in Canada, Esri Sweden sees Cityworks as a key ingredient to help them meet future growth goals. While Esri Sweden is currently working with the City of Gävle to leverage their citywide Wi-Fi network to put Cityworks in the hands of field workers, they are also in the discovery phase with several exciting opportunities.
