Ahead of Nordbygg 2026, we therefore took a step back to reflect on our own journey and where we are headed. Together with Bjarne Johansson, co-owner and head of technology and development, we delve into the insights, visions and technical force fields that shape SI&#039;s future.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><b>An industry in change<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Building automation is in one of its most expansive phases ever. Digitalization is accelerating, energy prices are affecting all levels, and cybersecurity has become a central part of the technical infrastructure. For SI, these trends are not challenges, but benchmarks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0 \u2013 Digitalization is an obvious driving force. At the same time, complexity is increasing and we must stay one step ahead of it. Our ISO27001 certification in cybersecurity is an example of how we are preparing ourselves for the demands that are now coming to the industry.<\/span><\/i>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">It&#039;s not just about following developments, but driving them. That&#039;s why software development is one of our core competencies today.<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> most important strategic investments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Energy efficiency is one of the industry&#039;s clearest trends, but for us it has always been a matter of course. A way of thinking. A principle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0 \u2013 The question should always be there: can we do this smarter? Can we think differently?<\/span><\/i><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> says Bjarne.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">It&#039;s about daring to evolve, daring to change and, above all, daring to improve. That&#039;s how we create value over time, in both small and large ways.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><b>SI Connect \u2013 your new colleague<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">One of our biggest investments right now is SI Connect, a platform that brings together functions, data and operational logic in one ecosystem.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The goal is clear: to create a property management system that is easy to understand, simple to\u00a0<br \/><\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">manage and ready for the demands of the future.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The platform is based on the principles we set back in 2008 when we started developing software:<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-aria-posinset=\"1\" data-aria-level=\"2\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">openness<\/span>\u00a0<\/li>\n<li data-aria-posinset=\"2\" data-aria-level=\"2\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">easy communication between systems<\/span>\u00a0<\/li>\n<li data-aria-posinset=\"3\" data-aria-level=\"2\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">adaptation to future protocols<\/span>\u00a0<\/li>\n<li data-aria-posinset=\"4\" data-aria-level=\"2\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">uncompromising security<\/span>\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\"><br \/>\u2013\u00a0<\/span><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">SI Connect is a big step towards a more unified and transparent property management. Many customers have parallel systems that do not communicate. We want to change that \u2013 and SI Connect is our way to get there.<\/span><\/i>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">For us, the platform is not just a new tool, <\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">it is<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">is a new way of thinking\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">about property management and what it can be.<br \/><\/span><br \/><b>Broad and deep expertise that is evident from<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Technology creates opportunities, but it&#039;s people who make opportunities a reality. That&#039;s why we place great emphasis on being a workplace where both specialists and future talents feel they can grow, contribute and be themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0 \u2013 We want to be the best place to be. If you like automation, you&#039;ve come to the right place. Interns and LIA students are important, and the collaboration with education programs means a lot.<\/span><\/i>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">We want to build a culture where ideas are encouraged, where knowledge has a place, and where innovation is something that arises naturally \u2013 not through requirements, but through curiosity and opportunity.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">At the same time, our geographical presence is one of our greatest strengths.\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">With 37 offices at the time of writing and several specialist companies, we create proximity to our customers and a real understanding of their everyday lives. This gives us both speed and flexibility.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Bjarne sums it up:<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0 \u2013 We have a lot of responsibility and drive out of the offices. If we create something central, it must add value, otherwise we won&#039;t implement it.<\/span><\/i>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">It is precisely this balance between local freedom and common direction that allows us<br \/><\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">can grow without losing its foothold.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c629bdb elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"c629bdb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"521\" src=\"https:\/\/wearesi.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Skarmbild-2026-02-24-160130-1024x667.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-19007\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wearesi.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Skarmbild-2026-02-24-160130-1024x667.webp 1024w, https:\/\/wearesi.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Skarmbild-2026-02-24-160130-300x195.webp 300w, https:\/\/wearesi.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Skarmbild-2026-02-24-160130-768x500.webp 768w, https:\/\/wearesi.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Skarmbild-2026-02-24-160130-18x12.webp 18w, https:\/\/wearesi.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Skarmbild-2026-02-24-160130.webp 1460w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6654e2c elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6654e2c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"font-size: 19.2px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">A partnership built to grow with your needs<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">As Bjarne looks ahead, his message is both clear and hopeful:<\/span><\/p><p><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> <i> \u00a0 \u2013\u00a0 <\/i><\/span><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Everyone who chooses us now or has chosen us in the past should feel that they made the right decision.
