See how Hafslund uses Cobrief to analyse the market, identify bid winners and find new customers. Learn how your company can use AI tools to save time and gain a complete overview of the tender market.
With Cobrief, Hafslund can analyse the market, find relevant partners and identify new business opportunities — while eliminating a lot of heavy and manual work.
It is intuitive and easy to use. Not least, it saves us a lot of time,” says Jørgen Onsnes, advisor at Hafslund Vekst AS. Customer and Partner Manager Daniel Samuelsen at Hafslund Mobil Energi AS nods approvingly.
It's an unparalleled time-saver. For us, Cobrief has become a fully integrated part of everyday work.
Both Samuelsen and Jørgen Osnes have followed the development of Cobrief closely. They regularly give feedback and see that improvements are happening all the time. Samuelsen admits that it took patience to be one of the first users. He didn't hold back if something didn't work out. He actively contributed suggestions for improvements.
“Cobrief is now the best tool we have to work strategically and effectively with public tenders. It gives us an overview, saves time and opens up new business opportunities,” he says.
The Hafslund duo have been using Cobrief for a long time — but for different purposes. Where Samuelsen and the team at Hafslund Mobil Energi are working on insights and market surveillance, Osnes and Hafslund Vekst are working to find relevant tenders, the preparation itself and the submission of tenders.
For Samuelsen, the Cobrief access is not about winning tenders. He seeks actors who have already won them.
Hafslund Mobil Energi supplies mobile energy solutions, charging solutions and temporary energy infrastructure to large construction sites. It is important to know who is going to start new projects. There may be potential customers.
Who won what, and where? And who is really behind the major infrastructure projects in the country? That's the insight we're looking for and finding in Cobrief,” he says.
Samuelsen saw early on that the solutions of finding bid winners in the market were not good enough. They were expensive, cumbersome -- and often confined to single regions.
After being in dialogue with several actors, he made contact with Cobrief. He laid out the need in detail. Hafslund Mobil Energi explained the need for a tool that could provide ongoing insight into tenders — both who won, where and why.
Cobrief took up the challenge and developed what is today called Market Insight — a feature that was first created for Hafslund, but which today is among the most widely used in the entire platform. It provides users with real-time insights into allocations, actors and collaboration opportunities.
