SKF - Transitioned a maintenance team to a Center of innovation, global scale
Helped transform an app maintenance team into a fully global Mobility Centre of Excellence, by building technical platforms, services, processes and necessary capabilities.
Polestar - Streamlined & Reliable App Governance
Helped Polestar to establish an app framework for internal and external apps, ensuring technical quality and brand consistency.
SKF - Simplification on shop floor App
Challenge: System flow disconnected from manufacturing reality, cumbersome to navigate and get an overview of the process. Incorrect inputs and manual mistakes created orders with errors needed to be corrected back-office, which generated ripple-effects in the supply chain.
Solution: Went from user interaction with terminal screen, to an iOS native solution on SAP cloud platform that drastically simplified operations.
Business & User value: With the iOS native app basically no training needed, significant reduction of system related errors as well as system related processing time.

Testimonials
I met Christoffer at the beginning of the year when working on his recruitment scale-up projects. He was an absolute pleasure to work with and to talk to. He is very inspiring, has a vision and has an infectious passion. Later in the year, I coordinated Startup School which involved many different sessions being run by various leaders from different industries. He attended most sessions, contributed and really showed that he values growth, learning and innovation. Over the year he has become a friend and sometimes even a mentor. It's always a pleasure speaking to him and I can't recommend him enough as someone to work with.

I've had the pleasure of working with Christoffer while developing apps for Mölnlycke Health care as a consultant. He is a innovative front runner with a get-it-done attitude which I really like. I have more than 15 years of experience in the IT-sector, and I can say that very few people can summon the energy to get complex cross-functional projects started and completed like Christoffer.
Previously: Partner MATCHi, Block21
Christoffer is very driven and passionate about mobility and has the know-how to back it up. His strength is not just his technical knowledge, but his business and marketing approach. Christoffer sees beyond the technology and makes the connection to how technology can be used to drive business. His positive personality, energy, and great sense of humor are added benefits that make Christoffer a real treat to work with.
I had the pleasure of managing Christoffer under a short period at Mölnlycke Health Care AB. I found his knowledge of app and mobility solutions on a strategic, technical and business level to be of a very high standard. Christoffer had the ability to create structure in what can be a very fluid and fast moving environment and his App Factory concept lives on in the company. Christoffer has a professional approach to all he does and a communicative and gregarious manner and was a popular colleague. I wish him all luck in his future endeavours and am happy to leave my recommendation.
Previously: Essity, Willhem
Christoffer was exceptional at bringing together the entire team to strive and work for the same goal. He also cared very much about each individual so everyone was feeling appreciated, included and listened to, all to make the team perform as good as possible.
Previously: LumenRadio
I started working with Christoffer as a (mobile) tech provider and strategy consultant, and have since seen him launch his own ventures and we’ve been in touch since. Very sharp thoughts and usually gets it right in a pragmatic way when it comes to enterprise mobility, digital transformation and building tech services from both an organizational and technical point of view. Can highly recommend him for those that want to see more real change and less theoretical powerpoints…
