The Swedish Customs is an authority with significant data resources and ambitions to utilize these more effectively to strengthen our mission of creating a safe and secure society. We are on an exciting transformation journey where we are modernizing how we manage, share, and use data to create more value. A large part of this transformation work is carried out within the cross-agency development area called Data and Analysis, which is divided into three delivery areas: Data, BI, and AI.

The Data and Analysis development area assists all divisions, departments, and delivery areas of the Swedish Customs with knowledge, competence, and products in data management and analysis, based on BI and AI technology.
