Nordic Choice Hotels signs up with Iver

6 November 2020 / Press release

Nordic Choice Hotels – one of the Nordic region’s biggest hotel groups, with over 200 hotels and almost 17,000 employees in the Nordic and Baltic States regions – has chosen Iver as its new IT operating services provider. The agreement has a five-year term, and Nordic Choice will become one of Iver’s biggest customers.

Nordic Choice Hotels, which markets the Comfort Hotel, Quality Hotel, Clarion Hotel and Clarion Collection hotel chains, along with 34 independent hotels and the long-stay company, Strawberry Living, has chosen Iver as its new IT operating services provider. Over the next five years, and in addition to the IT operating services, Iver’s service package for Nordic Choice Hotels will include client operations for the hotel chain’s users, consultancy services, and second and third-line support services.

“We are delighted and proud that Nordic Choice Hotels has chosen Iver as its partner for the provision of IT operating services. The procurement process included an extensive focus on identifying and operationally secure and modern service provision package that not only meets Nordic Choice Hotels’ existing and future operational requirements, but also offers a solution that results in substantial savings for the IT provision package as a whole,” says Lotta Strömbäck, Regional Manager, Norway, at Iver.

“For Nordic Choice Hotels, it was critical that we identified a secure, stable, and technically competent advisor for our IT services operations over the next few years. Guests and employees alike rely on a good infrastructure, and we are certain that this is what we will get from Iver. With over 20 ongoing new hotel projects over the next few years, we need a provider who can optimise the handling of both project management and operations, and we look forward to working in partnership with Iver in the years ahead,” says Kari Anna Fiskvik, Vice President of Technology at Nordic Choice Hotels.

“We have completed a comprehensive migration project with over 600 servers over the past four months. Working hand in hand with Nordic Choice has given us a real understanding of their operations and the challenges they face. The project has built a strong team spirit that transcends company boundaries, and our journey towards ensuring that Nordic Choice becomes yet another satisfied customer couldn’t have got off to a better start. It’s the perfect example of how we want to help our customers resolve their toughest business challenges,” continues Lotta Strömbäck.
