Summary Assess and prepare Intec Pumper, a projectâdriven pumpâstation manufacturer south of Oslo, for a potential integration into Vivaldi in 2027 (decision pending). The focus is on understanding their cloudâbased workflows, system landscape, and opportunities for lightâinfra and process alignment to support future digital transformation.
Background Intec Pumper operates in four main areas:
Direct sales of pumps (water, greywater, submersible)
Containerâbased pump stations for tunnels, hydro plants, etc.
Workflows are wellâdocumented across 10 SharePointâmanaged steps, from RFQ â final 3D documentation and invoicing. All work is projectânumberâdriven.
Their systems are fully cloudâbased, centered around:
Visma Business (via hosting partner Sodvin AS) for back office, warehouse mgmt, assembly withdrawal, invoicing
SharePoint (process documentation, RFQ handling)
Remote desktop access to Visma
Recently upgraded laptops (Windows 11), local WAN line, local licenses
There is no integration between Visma and SharePoint. Large RFQs (example: 145âpage PDF) require heavy manual copyâpaste work into Excel.
Business Need Evaluate readiness for Vivaldi and identify improvements to reduce manual handling, enhance project flow, and prepare for scalable digital operations. Interest has been shown in tools like

for automating large RFQ imports.
Objectives
Assess feasibility and benefits of a 2027 Vivaldi integration
Identify opportunities for lightâinfra improvements (WAN, Telavox, cloud setups)
Map gaps between current workflow and Vivaldi, especially for projectâbased operations
Support future scalability and reduce manual work in RFQ processing
ScopeIn scope: system assessment, process mapping, infra evaluation, introduction of digital tools (DocuSign, Cordel), alignment with Ahlsell portfolio. Out of scope: full integration work (pending decision), deep redesign of operational processes.
Key Activities
Demonstrate DocuSign and send Ahlsell system overview
Review Visma inventory status (Sweden sync point)
Evaluate lightâinfra transition options
Identify integration points between current tools and future systems
Assess effort/impact of potential Vivaldi onboarding
Deliverables
Integration feasibility assessment (2027)
Process & system gap analysis
Lightâinfra transition proposal
Recommendations for digital workflow improvements (RFQ automation, documentation flow)
Success Criteria
Clear decision basis for Vivaldi integration
Identified quick wins to reduce manual work
Improved alignment with Ahlsellâs digital ecosystem
Mapped system dependencies and risks for future onboarding
Risks & Dependencies Manual PDFâtoâExcel handling, lack of system integrations, dependency on Sodvinâhosted Visma, and heavy projectâbased workflows may increase integration complexity. Coordination needed with Infra, Digital, and Vivaldi teams.
