What Soltak AB does

Soltak AB is a Swedish municipal shared services company (Aktiebolag) headquartered at Älvebacken 15, Kungälv, providing centralized administrative support to four owner municipalities and their associated municipal companies and inter-municipal associations. Founded in 2013 and operational since 2014, Soltak offers an integrated service portfolio across four business areas: Economy (Ekonomi), Payroll (Lön), IT, and Projects (Projekt och Innovation). Customers include the owner municipalities of Stenungsund, Tjörn, Lilla Edet, and Kungälv, plus municipal entities such as Tjörns Bostads AB, Tjörns Hamnar AB, Tjörns Måltids AB, Kungälv Energi, and the Södra Bohusläns and Bohus Räddningstjänstförbund rescue service federations.

The company's core product is the SOLTAK Serviceportal (kundservice.soltakab.se), which functions as a 'one-way-in' hub unifying ticket submission, case tracking, and routing across the three primary service lines, complemented by employee-facing self-service modules (Självservice HR/Lön, Självservice Lön) and the P Mobile mobile application for HR/payroll access. Underlying platforms include Unit4 for enterprise financial management (accounts payable/receivable, cash management, financial reporting) and Time Care Pool and Time Care Planering for workforce scheduling; the company also integrates BankID for secure identity verification, Nordea for salary payments, KPA and minPension for pension administration, arbetsgivarintyg.nu for employer certificates, and Visma Recruit for hiring. IT services extend to network solutions and complete student and administrator computer deployments (12,000 devices supported), and the company is GDPR-compliant with documented lawful bases for personal data processing.

Soltak's revenue model is managed-services oriented: the company delivers services under negotiated, multi-year service agreements with owner municipalities and their affiliated entities, pooling development and operational costs across all customers to achieve economies of scale. Distribution is direct, regional, and government-focused, with service access via portal, phone (010-33 13 000 with menu routing for IT, Payroll, Economy), and email. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is set through inter-municipal service contracts rather than commercial channels. The business is a closed-loop municipal entity with no external equity ownership and no disclosed headcount, revenue, or growth metrics beyond a stable ~100-employee base in Kungälv.
