Our philosophy

Edlund A/S is the market leading supplier of solutions for the administration of Life and Pension in Denmark. The key elements to this success are, among other things, the following:

• We hire the most skilled persons. As a minimum, all developers have five-year training in computer science, actuarial science, or similar professions. All persons employed in performance specification and testing have lengthy experience from other companies.

• We use the best technologies. The central technologies are Microsoft .Net, C#, Microsoft SQL Server, Windows Communication Framework, and Windows Presentation Framework.

• We use an agile project model. The key elements of this are Scrum with iterative development and ongoing incorporation of improvement proposals, close collaboration with clients, steering group meetings, etc.

• We use mature development methodology. The key elements of this are distributed version control, uniform and fully automated translation of complete solutions, daily builds of all projects, widespread use of automated tests (unit tests and integration tests), bug tracking, etc.

We employ no sales representatives. If the solutions cannot sell themselves, they are not good enough! And in that case, the money should be spent on further development rather than sales.
