Fortifikationsverket is a government agency and one of Sweden's largest property owners. Our mission is to ensure that there are secure properties to protect Sweden in the event of a crisis or war.

The information management unit consists of three groups with a total of 24 employees, and we are responsible for the agency's diary, archives, as well as support for investment projects and renovations, and the process Manage Information.
