Welado Group Acquires Swedish OMT Group – Creating a Leading Nordic Consulting Platform in the Built Environment
Finland-based Welado Group has acquired 100% of Swedish-based OMT Group AB. The owners and founders of OMT have reinvested in Welado and will continue in leadership roles within the Welado Group. With this acquisition, Welado and OMT unite to strengthen their mutual expertise and expand service offerings across the Nordic region. The combined group will serve clients in industrial, infrastructure, energy, and transportation sectors, with an estimated pro forma turnover of over €57 million for 2025.
“Even though the transaction is formally an acquisition, operationally this is a true merger of two companies who share the same passion for delivering best-in-class consulting services throughout the built environment and technical industries,” says Noora Haverinen, CEO of Welado Group.
“Together, we aim to build a lasting legacy: a growing, people-centric Nordic expert platform that empowers our customers and employees to thrive.” John Filipiak Wallderin, CEO of OMT Group AB, adds: “This acquisition is not just a strategic growth move – it’s a step toward a shared future built on common values, passion, and a similar way of seeing the world. Our purpose is to empower people and companies within the technical industry to work with meaning, well-being, and success. Our reinvestment is a clear signal of our belief in this journey.”
“The complementary expertise of OMT and Welado brings a unique breadth of capability,” says Nicklas Söderholm, Head of Business Performance at OMT Group AB. “By combining OMT’s culture, structure, and proven methodology with Welado’s strong market position and experience, we create a powerful foundation for innovation and client value – from heavy industry and defense to infrastructure and energy.”
“Individually we are strong, but together we are even better,” adds Erik Hollertz, Head of Sales at OMT Group AB. “With Welado, we can scale faster and deliver even greater value to both our customers and employees.”
“We admired OMT’s journey and expertise from afar, but the real match was found in our shared mindset,” says Noora. “From the very first meeting, there was genuine chemistry and trust – the belief that together, we can achieve more than we could apart.”
All OMT and Welado employees will remain in their current roles, and customer projects will continue uninterrupted.
“The integration process will be carefully planned with our teams during 2026,” says Marleena Härkönen, Head of legal and M&A, at Welado. “We will explore new opportunities for growth and development while shaping a shared Nordic brand and identity.”
Together, Welado and OMT aim to set a new standard for technical consulting in the Nordics – rooted in strong culture, shared purpose, and sustainable growth.
The value of the transaction will not be disclosed.
