Ambea

Ambea is Scandinavia's knowledge-leading care company and offers accommodation, support, training and staffing in health and social care. The goal is to be a quality leader in everything it does and the vision is to make the world a little better, one person at a time.

Ambea is Scandinavia's leading care company with over 30,000 employees.

The care company Ambea currently has more than 30,000 employees spread over 950 units in Sweden, Norway and Denmark, and is listed on Nasdaq Stockholm. However, driving such a large organization forward requires a good structure and a strategy for how to streamline and find synergies.

By using Freshservice IT Service Management(ITSM) and Enterprise Service Management(ESM) solutions, Ambea has been able to centralize 8 different departments into separate workspaces in a single system. This means that they can work independently of each other, but also
collaborate between the departments. Something that both streamlined the work and
increased user-friendliness and customer satisfaction.

- We are focusing a lot on how we can find common ways of working across the Group, and the fact that our operations in all three countries are now using Freshservice is a great example of this. Freshservice is very user-friendly and it is easy to do the right thing. Thanks to Freshservice , we have been able to gather 8 workspaces in areas such as IT, HR and finance in one and the same system," says Jessica Roos, IT project manager at Ambea.

And just as the implementation of a system is a critical investment, management is a very important ingredient to ensure that the system continues to deliver value throughout its lifecycle. This is where Synerity's expertise in both technical support and strategic advice comes in.

Ambea operates through the brands Nytida, Vardaga, Stendi, Altiden and Klara. It also conducts training activities within Lära.

- Since we hired Synerity as a full-service partner 2.5 years ago, we have gained a smoother and more comprehensive management. They are a reliable partner providing technical and strategic support and have more specialized skills, higher quality and deeper knowledge than previous partners. Synerity continuously helps us optimize our work and provides us with strategic advice. I am in contact with them almost every day and we also have scheduled meetings every two weeks," Jessica continues.

- Our needs change over time and it's incredibly nice to work with an agile partner who understands our challenges. Synerity supports us with everything from management to further development and helps us make the right decisions to achieve the business goals. We are not so many people working with these issues at Ambea, so you could say that Synerity's consultants are some of my closest colleagues.

- I appreciate that we have such good communication and transparency and that Synerity is very proactive in its work. In the long term, we also want to start using more of the AI functions (Freddy AI) that Freshservice offers and then it feels safe to have an experienced and competent partner in that work, says Jessica Roos.

The challenge:
One of the biggest challenges for Ambea was that the IT department had extensive responsibility for all devices using Freshservice.

The solution:
To relieve the burden on IT and enable non-IT units to take responsibility for and develop their own processes, service catalogs, statistical needs and more, Synerity delivered a transformation project in Q4 2023 to develop the ITSM platform into an ESM platform.
