Case Study: Avinor ANS
Avinor ANS, which owns and operates 44 Norwegian airports and has 2,400 employees, had an ambitious goal of creating a software tool (“Horizon”) that would enable their team to collaboratively manage and schedule resources. Before Happy Cog started helping, Avinor ANS had developed a prototype platform, but the project had been completely paused. We were tasked with jumpstarting the project again and building inertia towards a launch with a focus on team and tech strategy.
