Customer Spotlight Solution Overview


The university has several external research projects regrading managing IT operations with large corporations from a value / cost perspective based on SatoriAnalytics.


COOP, one of the largest supermarket chains in the Nordic region, outsources all its IT operations. They wanted a utility-based charging model, but COOP's service provider simply aggregated the costs of a managed a pool of resources dedicated to COOP. Lacking visibility into its resources utilization, COOP lacked the visibility to align their business decisions with potential financial impacts and had to rely on the decisions made by the service provider regarding capacity expansion as business needs changed. To take control of their IT costs, COOP implemented the SatoriAnalytics technology, enabling them to accurately account for IT resources and cost-effectively plan for new services.


Folksam one of the largest insurance companies in the Nordic region, had a relatively small mainframe operation and believed they could benefit from outsourcing the operation. Folksam was very sensitive to the cost-per-produced unit of computing capacity as their strategy was to provide insurance products in high volume at the lowest possible cost. Optimizing and lowering IT costs was critical to their business model. Folksam implemented the SatoriAnalytics technology to identify savings opportunities and dynamically manage their IT costs, enabling them to better align expenses with profitability targets.


SEB is the largest commercial bank in Sweden, and one of the largest merchant banks in the world. SEB experienced dramatic growth through acquisitions of banks in Germany and the Baltic countries. SEB faced a complex, growing IT infrastructure with low utilization on a "stove piped" architecture. SEB needed to optimize the different IT operations and create a cost-effective solution to space its growing business. SatoriAnalytics provided detailed information about SEB costs and helped them make the best decisions for data center consolidation.


VGR, an assembly of municipalities in the southwestern part of Sweden and the largest employer in the country. VGR had a wide-range of different servers in their data centers. VGR wanted to transform their data centers, consolidating the number of servers to improve overall utilization and efficiency as well as reduce IT costs. VGR deployed the SatoriAnalytics technology to drive the cost and optimization analysis and then implemented the chargeback functionality that enabled VGR to move to allocated resources based on the business value that IT delivered.
