Heba Fastighets AB Pioneers Digital Property Management

According to Dagens industri, Heba Fastighets AB is spearheading digital transformation within the real estate sector through its proactive, technology-driven approach. The company is implementing digital twins and real-time monitoring systems to anticipate and resolve maintenance issues before they affect tenants, thereby aiming to eliminate common disruptions such as elevator or appliance failures. CEO Patrik Emanuelsson elaborated on Heba's strategy, which centers on building a layered, robust digital infrastructure. This process commences with centralized data rooms designed to consolidate all property information. Subsequently, digital twins create detailed three-dimensional models, granting technicians access to critical data. This includes serial numbers and service schedules for individual components. This integration of building data establishes granular control and a unified source of truth for the organization. Emanuelsson characterized this comprehensive digital tool system as "smart förvaltning," or smart management. To further bolster proactive maintenance, Heba analyzes error reports in real-time to identify recurring patterns, such as frequent problems or equipment defects. The company also monitors digitized inspection rounds to track property changes over time. Additionally, Heba utilizes the Internet of Things (IoT) for critical machinery, enabling them to self-report impending failures. This holistic digital strategy is designed to significantly enhance operational efficiency for both tenants and staff.
