Production Manager at STØ Entreprenør, Per Kristian Østbye, explains that the decision to choose Rubus was made to strengthen project management, especially in new housing projects, and to simplify collaboration between different stakeholders. "We established a team with representatives from all the different roles that use our solutions today. Through a thorough evaluation process that started in April, we assessed several suppliers before deciding on Rubus as the best solution for our needs in terms of efficient collaboration, communication, and user-friendliness," says Østbye.

Optimized for Modern Digital Ecosystems

Rubus fits well into the modern digital system landscape, where many contractors and developers see the value of consolidating multiple processes into fewer systems. In an increasingly digitized industry, centralized communication and documentation are crucial. STØ Entreprenør aims to consolidate more processes into solid tools that can meet multiple needs.

"Rubus gives us the control we need to deliver our projects on time and with fewer errors, while also integrating well with other systems we already use. It is an advantage that the platform is widely adopted, also among subcontractors and suppliers," says Østbye.

A forward-thinking contractor

Chief Commercial Director at Rubus, Lars-Thomas Stene, praises STØ for a thorough process. He points out that several players are in the process of similar evaluations and want more control over communication and documentation in their projects. "It is clear that somewhat quieter times in the construction industry give more players the opportunity to position themselves best for the future. We find it exciting to work with companies like STØ, who have extensive experience with digital tools and conduct such a thorough evaluation," says Lars-Thomas.

Already underway with the first projects

STØ is already underway with its first projects using Rubus and will use all modules from Rubus on its upcoming project, a new development at Råholtåsen. Furthermore, STØ aims to streamline project execution by using Rubus' analysis module for after-sales management.
