DONG Energy is Denmark’s largest and one of Europe’s leading energy corporations.

In a competitive energy market IT is an extremely important factor. With time DONG Energy has experienced that access to profound and competent license knowledge is very important when having a complex infrastructure. When needed DONG Energy has used Compliance Group’s unique license knowledge especially regarding IBM Software, but also about Microsoft licensing issues and Software Asset Management. Particularly the concept with impartial advisors has been an important parameter for cooperation with Compliance Group. Additionally their many years of knowledge and experience with software licensing and compliance is also worth mentioning.

The municipality of Herning operates a comprehensive, advanced IT installation connecting more than 10,000 users. The fact that our installation is advanced and that we are working with a complex license structure create a strong demand for savvy expertise. Together with Compliance Group, we have conducted a review of our installation, primarily on IBM and Microsoft software.

We see Compliance Group as a valuable partner capable of providing highly competent and specialized knowledge of IBM and Microsoft licensing. Compliance Group’s expertise has definitely strengthened our negotiations with license suppliers, and has led to adjustments in our IT setup.

We now have a firm overview of our licenses and we know how to handle them. In a complex world of numerous license options, Compliance Group has helped the municipality of Herning operate its IT installation with a safe and secure hand.

As a worldwide sales and service company, Coloplast spends a large sum of money on buying and maintaining software. Furthermore, Coloplast is governed by the FDA regulations, which sets a demand for detailed documentation and a strong internal focus. We realize now that software, contract and license management are all areas which have become extremely complex. It is difficult for us to keep in-house knowledge up to date and we have chosen Compliance Group as an independent adviser to support us in these areas. Compliance Group has demonstrated deep contract and license expertise of Microsoft and IBM software which are the key platforms at Coloplast.

Our cooperation with Compliance Group has generated significant savings on software expenses which we have then been able to transfer to new software projects.

- Palle Mandrup, Head of IT Operations, Coloplast

Compliance Group provides consultancy on different types of licensing, particularly on IBM and Microsoft products. In 2008, we were to select a license management system and we chose to work with Compliance Group throughout that process. They also assisted us during the implementation phase and today, we co-operate with them on administration and license management. Having access to Compliance Group’s deep, independent knowledge on IBM and Microsoft software contract and license management and their competences on SAM has proven extremely valuable to us. They have assisted us in getting a much better view of our licenses and our license budget.

- Ulla Joensen, CFO, Elektron (Central bank, Faeroe Islands)

We have been working with Compliance Group since autumn 2009. Our cooperation has been around license management, primarily our Microsoft licenses, and we are now considering extending our cooperation to include other parts of our license management, hereunder implementation of a SAM solution. Compliance Group has demonstrated thorough knowledge of license management which is an area of extreme complexity. It would have been very difficult for us if we were to establish the same level of knowledge in-house. It gives us a feeling of safety having access to Compliance Group’s expertise. Moreover, the company is an independent, impartial partner focusing on advising rather than license transactions.

- Nicolai Mohr Balle, IT Manager, Føroya Gjaldstovan (the Faroese Financial Agency)

Over the last couple of years, licensing of software products has become more and more complex. As a consequence, we decided to cooperate with Compliance Group as advisers on ‘our side of the table’. As a result of this cooperation, our processes and knowledge around administration and licensing of software products has improved significantly.
