Epical elevates Trainstation's growth journey through innovative collaboration
Trainstation is transitioning from the start-up phase to expansive growth and is gearing up to extend their footprint with four additional facilities in Sweden this year. Navigating this exciting yet challenging phase, Epical has played a pivotal role in propelling Trainstation forward.
Trainstation's core mission revolves around fostering inclusivity in today's digitalized society. Leveraging digital tools and psychological models, Trainstation creates public arenas for learning and networking across its locations in Vivalla, Örebro, Haninge, Karlskoga, and the upcoming facility in Skultuna. The goal is to awaken bigger dreams, create an inner drive, and teach people to create value for others through modern sought-after knowledge and abilities. Visitors can engage in activities like music production and film-making as well as virtual reality and robotics.
”Epical's impact on Trainstation can be categorized into two key areas. Firstly, they seamlessly managed the infrastructure and platform on AWS, implementing the Managed AWS Landing Zone. Secondly, Epical provided access to skilled developers, contributing with not only technical expertise but also valuable business insights. This partnership has led to platform stabilization and increased our possibilities for future development,” says Johan Cedermark CEO & founder of Trainstation.
A significant milestone in Trainstation's collaboration with Epical was the successful execution of the SUP* project. Tasked with running the "Trainer app" project, Trainstation, along with three students and two supervisors, designed an app to enhance the training experience at Trainstation’s facilities. The app, currently in use by supervisors, incorporates a number of YouTube interviews to facilitate new trainers in welcoming and nurturing visitors to the sites. Real-time tracking of visitors in each location adds a personalized touch to the trainer/visitor interaction.
"The collaborative effort exceeded our expectations, owing to the motivation of students, the expertise of supervisors, and the support from Epical's senior consultants. The resulting Trainer app stands as a testament to its success, providing Trainstation with a robust tool for our ongoing development and growth," Johan Cedermark continues.
”Trainstation recommends Epical wholeheartedly, acknowledging the invaluable contribution Epical has made to its digital platform. With their AWS managed Landing Zone and technical support, Epical's involvement has not only addressed immediate needs but positioned Trainstation for continued growth and innovation,” says Oa Berg, CTO at Trainstation.
*SUP is a concept from the Systems Science program at Örebro University. SUP means that the students in groups carry out a project work at companies in the region during the last academic year, as a part of their final exam.
