How Valmet unified R&D portfolio management

Driving innovation with transparency and ease of use.

Company

Valmet — a global leader in technologies, automation, and services for the pulp, paper, and energy industries, with over 17,000 professionals worldwide.

Challenge

R&D projects were managed in separate systems across business lines, making it difficult to compare progress, share practices, or maintain consistent reporting. Leaders lacked a single, reliable view of all initiatives.

Solution

In 2020, Valmet implemented Keto Software across all business areas. Keto provided a centralized R&D portfolio, intuitive interfaces for project managers, and custom milestones tailored for system and software development.

Impact

  • Reliable, real-time data for leadership
  • ROI and payback period assessments in one place
  • Greater transparency across projects

“The interface is intuitive and visuals are greatly improved. Updating data is easy, which means the information is always reliable.”
Jukka Ylijoki Vice President, R&D, Valmet Automation
