”Simplicity like this saves time and money”
By combining industry-leading Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) tools with specialist knowledge, Technia simplifies processes and tailors technology to their clients’ needs, helping them solve complex challenges. Their organisation spans numerous countries, such as Sweden, Germany, the United Kingdom, India, Austria, Norway, Finland, the Netherlands, France, Japan, the United States, and Poland.
When we spoke with Jacob Oskarsson, Finance Manager for the Nordics, Benelux and Poland, he explained how Skovik helps Technia streamline expense management across its international organisation. Our conversation centered around the value of simplicity, strong collaboration and a unified system.
Simplicity that benefits the whole organisation
Jacob describes Skovik as a system that is easy for everyone to use, whether they are submitting expenses or reviewing them.
It’s a straightforward system, and really easy to get started with
, he says. I approve quite a lot of expenses, and it’s quick and easily done
.
Compared to other solutions he has worked with, Skovik offers a cleaner and more intuitive interface. The layout is easy to understand, and the navigation feels natural even for new users.
The feedback he receives is consistently positive, and the ease of use is a recurring theme.
One unified system across countries
Another thing Jacob points to is the value of managing multiple subsidiaries within a single system. He highlights three things in particular:
- Smooth collaboration across borders through shared approval flows.
- Shared system, flexible set-up, allowing for common processes where effective, while still supporting local variation.
- Visibility at group level, ensuring policy adherence and transparent oversight.
He adds:
“With the same expense system and the same ERP system, we get the scalability we need”.
A strong and efficient partnership
Jacob repeatedly comes back to the link between simplicity and value. Because the system is easy to use for both employees and administrators, less time is spent on handling expenses, and processes move more smoothly from start to finish.
Companies really save a lot of money on how simple and efficient the system is
, he says.
He also highlights the collaboration with Skovik. The implementation process and ERP integration were straightforward, and he appreciates how easy it is to work with the Skovik team.
“You’re a service-minded organisation that listens. You work in an agile way. It’s really quick to get in touch with you, it’s easy to book meetings, easy to discuss things. You’re very solution-oriented”.
The impression he is left with is one of a partnership that functions smoothly and supports long-term success.
