Reorganisation of ELECO's Swedish software and service operations
Anders Karlsson appointed Managing Director of Consultec Byggprogram AB
ELECO announces the reorganisation of its Swedish software and service businesses to align them more closely with the requirements of their customers. The reorganisation will involve the consolidation of Consultec's software businesses into Consultec Byggprogram AB, and its architectural and construction service businesses into Consultec Arkitekter & Konstruktrer AB. The proposed realignment will result in improved co-ordination, flexibility and efficiency by enabling colleagues in similar disciplines to work more closely together.
Anders Karlsson has been appointed Managing Director of Consultec Byggprogram AB, and Allan Forslund will continue as Managing Director of Consultec Arkitekter & Konstruktrer AB. Anders Karlsson was formerly Managing Director of Consultec Byggprogram between 2005 and 2010. 
John Ketteley, Executive Chairman of ELECO commented,"As a consequence of Anders Karlsson's earlier successful time with Consultec Byggprogram, he brings with him a considerable in-depth knowledge of the business which will again benefit from his experience in sales and marketing, as well as from his strong analytical and strategic approach to business. I am delighted that he has agreed to join us once more as a key member of our management team and that Allan Forslund, as Managing Director of Consultec Arkitekter & Konstruktrer's expanded services business, will also continue as a key member of the management team."
Anders Karlsson, added,"My appointment is both a happy reunion and an exciting new beginning. With Consultec's new clarity of focus based on two divisions, software and services, I believe we will deliver greater benefit to our customers and will better and more firmly position ourselves as leaders in our chosen markets."
