Machine transport ended up as a customer of Corporate Development when we got to know our customer relationship manager, who managed to highlight exactly the things that had already been found on the to-do list of development work through company analysis.

With the growth-oriented Machine Transport, we started to strengthen the basis for growth by various means. All in all, the goal was to build a cornerstone of growth, to engage key personnel in operations even better, and to complete the generational change that had already begun.

Design work always takes its own time and requires dedication - in an entrepreneur's busy daily life, setting aside time for development work is often challenging, because there is enough to do anyway. According to an external expert, bringing in often puts much-needed pressure to get design work done on schedule and helps prioritize it. On the other hand, projects live a bit of their own lives and flexible schedules or deviations from the plan are not always a bad thing.

"In the initial stages, the planning and also the arrangements that took place took more time than initially thought and otherwise thought. In retrospect, it is better that the patterns were jumped into order carefully so that there is no need to return to them in a moment."

In the case of machine transport, the company's growth capabilities were developed in many ways, both strategically and financially. The project was successful, but CEO Mika Liimatainen admits that arranging time was not always easy.

The project, which was carried out under the leadership of two experts and covered many areas, gave Konnekul transports good growth potential, and the company says that it has received clear tones from the project in the direction in which the company is being taken. Growth requires a lot of work, but the company has strong credit for having every chance to succeed and achieve their goals. Finnish Business Development is characterized by machine transport as a good partner.
