Køge Municipality – Record-Fast Transition to a New Private Cloud Platform

Køge Municipality delivers essential digital services to both citizens and employees every day. A stable, secure and modern IT infrastructure is therefore critical to supporting the municipality’s operations and future development.

Background

A strategic private cloud migration

Køge Municipality delivers essential digital services to both citizens and employees every day. A stable, secure and modern IT infrastructure is therefore critical to supporting the municipality’s operations and future development.

When the municipality issued a tender for its existing private cloud solution, the objective was clear: to secure a modern, stable and secure platform at a competitive price.

NetNordic won the tender and was selected as the new provider of the municipality’s private cloud environment. What began as a standard infrastructure transition quickly evolved into a project characterized by close collaboration, efficient execution and exceptional results.

The Challenge

Migrating critical infrastructure without disruption

Køge Municipality faced a comprehensive transition from its existing platform to a new private cloud environment.

The migration needed to be completed without compromising operational stability, security or service quality. The project included the implementation of the new platform, migration of workloads and establishment of the governance processes required to support future operations.

At the same time, the timeline was ambitious, and both the municipality and NetNordic shared a common goal of minimizing complexity while delivering value as quickly as possible.

The Solution

Fast execution through close collaboration

Shortly after the contract was signed, the project was launched at full speed.

NetNordic established the new private cloud platform and completed the migration, implementation and stabilization within just 5–6 months. Throughout the project, close collaboration, short decision-making paths and rapid clarification of technical and operational questions ensured continuous momentum.

A key success factor was the combination of Køge Municipality’s thorough preparation and NetNordic’s proactive project management and technical expertise.

The collaboration was characterized by:

  • Rapid response times and continuous availability
  • Close and direct communication
  • Effective project management with a strong focus on execution
  • Clear roles and responsibilities

A shared commitment to delivering a successful outcome

The project and collaboration with NetNordic have exceeded our expectations in several ways. It is hard not to be impressed when a supplier combines the right expertise, flexibility, and a strong sense of doing the right things at the right time.

The Result

The result was a record-fast and seamless transition to the new private cloud platform.

The entire project was completed in less than six months, and the subsequent operational acceptance test was completed without a single error. This enabled an immediate transition into normal operations, including Service Delivery Management, operational documentation and governance processes.

Køge Municipality achieved:

  • A modern, stable and secure private cloud platform
  • A smooth and efficient transition from the previous provider
