House of Control

What House of Control does

House of Control is a Norwegian SaaS company that develops the Complete Control platform for contract lifecycle management, IFRS 16 and FRS 102 lease accounting, and a growing suite of EU/EEA regulatory compliance modules covering DORA, NIS2 and the CSDDD/Åpenhetsloven supply-chain due-diligence regime. The cloud-hosted platform (AWS EU and Microsoft Azure, multi-jurisdiction data residency) provides a centralized repository for contracts, assets and liabilities, automated renewal and compliance notifications, supplier risk workflows, digital signatures (via the Egreement acquisition, with BankID/MitID identity verification), and APIs for integration with finance and procurement systems. Core product differentiators are purpose-built Nordic compliance logic, multi-subsidiary / multi-currency support and deep localization across Norwegian, Swedish, Danish and English markets.

The company sells primarily through a consultative, demo-led direct sales motion targeting enterprise and mid-market finance, procurement and legal/compliance buyers in the Nordics. Revenue is generated via annual SaaS subscriptions for the Complete Control core platform plus optional compliance modules (IFRS 16, FRS 102, DORA, NIS2, CSDDD, Contract Capture, Commercial Lease, Digital Signature); pricing is quote-based, opaque, and tailored to modules, users and contract volume. Distribution is augmented by the Visma ecosystem — House of Control became a wholly-owned Visma subsidiary in 2022 — providing access to 200+ sister companies, ~1.5 million business customers and co-sell integrations (e.g., Compello for e-invoicing). The installed base comprises 1,600+ clients and 76,000 active users managing 870 billion NOK in obligations across Norway, Sweden, Denmark and an additional ~60 countries reached via the Egreement acquisition; headquarters are in Høvik (Bærum), with regional offices in Oslo, Copenhagen (Denmark) and Bromma/Stockholm (Sweden).
