Managing a demanding timeline and site bottlenecks

Karlatornet Case Study: Leveraging production with digitized logistics. Karlatornet (the Karla Tower) is a core part of the new city development on the island of Lindholmen in Gothenburg known as Karlastaden (the Karla City). Swedish construction company Serneke managed the Development and EPC. Karlatornet is the tallest building in the Nordic Countries at 246 m and is the first and largest building in the Karlastaden development plan. The construction of the tower alone covered 100,000 m2 in total. The challenging combination of a tightly spaced urban construction site, limitations posed by the required vertical transports, and the desired speed of construction identified the need for logistical management capability as a key part of the project setup from the very start.
