OBH Rådgivende Ingeniører actively uses Upsite today in their work with digital maintenance plans, both to save time and to deliver a better experience to their customers

A live platform with room for input 

It was especially Upsite's continuous development and ability to react quickly to user feedback that convinced OBH Rådgivende Ingeniører to adopt the platform. 

Building and indoor climate advisor Jakob Guldbjerg was the first at OBH to notice Upsite during the launch phase. 

As early as the beginning of 2024, OBH actively started using the system.

»We could feel that there was a really good development going on. Many updates and reactions to our wishes came very quickly. The fact that our input was listened to was very positive,«

says Jakob Guldbjerg. 

With Stig Nylandsted Larsen as the commercial frontman and Jakob Guldbjerg as the reliable initiator, OBH has been an engaged user, contributing relevant input and helping to spread awareness of Upsite among their own clients. 

The close dialogue and quick support from Upsite were crucial in building trust and creating a sense of shared ownership in the platform's further development. 

Digitalization with value for customers

For OBH, the digitalization of maintenance plans was not just an internal improvement project. It was a way to create added value for their clients. 

»It gives the whole solution and partnership an entirely different dynamic. Instead of a static report, we can make it live. It gives the whole solution a different power,«

explains Stig Nylandsted Larsen.

OBH has taken on the role of ambassador for Upsite, and several of their clients have since become mutual clients, now benefiting from advice, planning, and a digital maintenance tool. 

»It is entirely in our interest that the property owner also becomes a customer of Upsite. Otherwise, we just become report providers,«

says Stig Nylandsted Larsen. 

Standardized processes and long-term value 

At an organizational level, OBH sees major advantages in streamlining the preparation of maintenance plans. 

With Upsite, they can standardize their presentation and procedures regardless of who in the organization performs the work. At the same time, they save time by building on existing data rather than starting from scratch each time they prepare a new maintenance plan. 

»This has been one of the main reasons for the choice: that data becomes alive and something you can actively work with,«

says Stig Nylandsted Larsen. 

»We often discuss building strategy, advisory services, and decision-making bases with our clients. Data in connection with operation and maintenance is strategically important, and Upsite creates this overview for us and the client«

Jakob Guldbjerg adds and highlights the platform's design and features:

»The design is graphically appealing with elements like pie charts and bar graphs. It looks great and provides a better overview than what we had before.«

Energy and maintenance in one solution 

OBH also sees great value in Upsite's function for integrating energy performance certificates, which gives their clients a comprehensive overview of both building maintenance and energy savings.

»It just becomes more visible to run it in a single report instead of having it split in two,«

says Stig Nylandsted Larsen. 

OBH is among the largest players in energy labeling, so it makes perfect sense to combine energy data and maintenance in one complete solution.

Jakob Guldbjerg points out that it adds extra value that Upsite makes it possible to correct faulty energy label data and integrate reliable information directly into the maintenance plans:

»We are actually just impressed that it can be done.«

Closer to the customer and optimism about future cooperation 

For OBH, Upsite has become more than a tool. It is a key to getting closer to clients and delivering more value: 

»I feel we are closer to the client if they also choose Upsite's solution,«

says Stig Nylandsted Larsen. 

Jakob Guldbjerg concludes by putting words to OBH’s journey with Upsite: 

»I have been involved almost from the start and have a really good impression. I have actually been quite sure from the beginning that this was the way to go. I am certainly full of optimism about the journey ahead."
