Carmenta is a PreCom Development Partner and develops a mobile solution for Ragn-Sells

 
Carmenta and PocketMobile have signed a cooperation agreement. Carmenta is now a PreCom Development Partner and has PreCom-certified four of its system developers who can now develop mobility solutions based on the PreCom Platform. Carmenta is currently in the process of developing an advanced mobile solution for the sanitation company Ragn-Sells. In short, the solution means that the work orders generated in Ragn-Sells’ back-end systems are distributed to the vehicles, which, after each assignment is carried out, automatically re-report the volume, material and other relevant information to the back-end system. The solution will be tested during the summer and rolled out this autumn.
 
- The PreCom Platform is a very powerful tool for development of mobile applications. Our niche is geospatial software products which are closely associated with this type of mobile solutions. Thanks to PreCom we can now expand our service offer, and a more complete solution can be offered to our customers”, said Michael Ericsson, VP Security Solutions for Carmenta.
 
Carmenta has chosen initially to hire mobility expertise from PocketMobile that, if necessary, will come out to Carmenta’s premises. Pocket Mobile's mobility experts, who have extensive experience in mobile strategies, processes, project management and much more, can help partner companies which are just beginning to develop on PreCom to succeed. 
 
- The Carmenta developers are very competent and got started quickly with the development on PreCom Platform. It's been interesting to be involved and  able to help in the Ragn-Sells project, and to be able to provide input on things based on the expertise and experience we at PocketMobile have regarding mobility”, says Axel Emmelin, Mobility Expert at PocketMobile who has been hired by Carmenta during the project’s start up phase.
 
 
- Our four system developers who are PreCom certified think it's incredibly exciting and fun to develop on PreCom. We are very pleased with the Mobility Experts from PocketMobile working with us. It feels good to have people in place who can guide us in the right direction”, says Michael Ericsson on Carmenta. 
 
- The partnership with Carmenta is a good example of how we realize our partner strategy. We want partner companies that develop directly on PreCom, whit the aim to bring the platform out to other industries than the ones we have traditionally worked with. The benefits that the end customer can get out of the PreCom Platform are great, regardless of industry. The future of PocketMobile is to gradually sign up with partners with different professional areas that can quickly and effectively deliver mobile solutions using PreCom Platform and the assistance of PocketMobile's Mobility Experts”, says Fredrik Gottfridsson, CEO of PocketMobile.
 
Carmenta offers a wide range of software products for business-critical geospatial applications. Carmenta has around 65 employees in Gothenburg and Stockholm.
