As part of this ini­tia­tive, Ori­mat­ti­lan Sanomat has be­gun an am­bi­tious project to mod­ern­ize its ed­i­to­r­i­al sys­tem. The news­pa­per is up­grad­ing to the eNeo brows­er-based ed­i­to­r­i­al sys­tem, de­vel­oped by Any­graaf, a long-term sys­tem part­ner. The tran­si­tion to eNeo is part of a broad­er goal to op­ti­mize sys­tem ar­chi­tec­ture and stream­line work­flows across the news­pa­per.

Ad­di­tion­al­ly, the news­pa­per is en­hanc­ing its op­er­a­tional ca­pa­bil­i­ties by re­plac­ing its ex­ist­ing ad­ver­tise­ment and sub­scrip­tion man­age­ment sys­tems with Any­graaf’s AProf­it and CProf­it web por­tals. These so­lu­tions in­te­grate ful­ly with the new ed­i­to­r­i­al sys­tem, en­abling a seam­less, more ef­fi­cient work­flow.

The up­date will al­so in­clude the in­tro­duc­tion of the NeoDi­rect web pub­lish­ing sys­tem, de­signed to im­prove on­line ser­vices and en­hance the read­er ex­pe­ri­ence. This up­date re­sponds to grow­ing de­mand for di­verse read­er ser­vices and the adop­tion of ad­vanced ad­ver­tis­ing so­lu­tions in the in­dus­try.

Ori­mat­ti­lan Sanomat’s col­lab­o­ra­tion with Ylä-Sa­takun­nan Sanomale­hti Oy as part of an in­de­pen­dent lo­cal news­pa­per net­work al­lows for pooled re­sources and shared ex­per­tise. Ylä-Sa­takun­ta will act as the main sys­tem ad­min­is­tra­tor, pro­vid­ing crit­i­cal in­fra­struc­ture and sup­port to en­hance the net­work’s ca­pa­bil­i­ties.

“Join­ing Ylä-Sa­takun­ta’s ser­vice mod­el was an easy de­ci­sion since all the com­po­nents were al­ready in place,” says An­na Haka­ma, Ed­i­tor-in-Chief of Ori­mat­ti­lan Sanomat. “Ylä-Sa­takun­ta has an ex­cel­lent un­der­stand­ing of lo­cal news­pa­pers' needs. We want to serve our read­ers even bet­ter by of­fer­ing new types of con­tent and re­spond­ing to the grow­ing de­mand for mo­bile ac­ces­si­bil­i­ty. A key goal is to en­hance dig­i­tal ser­vices and mo­bile plat­forms, en­sur­ing news reach­es read­ers faster than ever be­fore.”

Juk­ka Huikko, CEO of Ylä-Sa­takun­nan Sanomale­hti Oy, com­ments, “We are pleased to ex­pand our col­lab­o­ra­tion net­work to in­clude three news­pa­pers. This co­op­er­a­tion be­tween in­de­pen­dent pub­lish­ers in sys­tem de­vel­op­ment gen­er­ates im­me­di­ate syn­er­gies while al­so open­ing up fu­ture op­por­tu­ni­ties.”

This ex­pan­sion al­so marks a mile­stone for Any­graaf. Janne Ahramo, So­lu­tion Sales Rep­re­sen­ta­tive at Any­graaf, states, “It is ex­cit­ing to see an in­de­pen­dent lo­cal news­pa­per like Ylä-Sa­takun­ta ex­pand­ing its ser­vice of­fer­ings and en­abling mod­ern and ef­fi­cient tools for Ori­mat­ti­lan Sanomat and oth­er lo­cal news­pa­pers.”
