What Edisys Consulting does

Edisys Consulting AS is a Norwegian boutique IT consulting firm founded in 1993 and headquartered at Munkedamsveien 3B, Oslo. The firm provides senior-level consulting services across four competency areas: solution architecture, information architecture, digital transformation, and data management, supplemented by standardization and harmonization work. It employs approximately 11-50 people, the majority being senior consultants and senior advisors with 15-30+ years of experience and certifications in TOGAF, ArchiMate, BPMN, UML, CDMP, PRINCE2, and SAFe. The firm serves Norwegian public-sector agencies (e.g., Skatteetaten, DFØ, FHI, Statens Vegvesen, Helse Sør-Øst) and large private enterprises (NRK, Statnett, Hydro Energi, Tine), and contributes to international standards bodies including CEN, UN/CEFACT, ebIX, and OpenPeppol, notably helping establish Norway's EHF electronic invoicing standard and the Peppol Logistics domain.

Edisys operates a commission-based revenue model in which consultants receive roughly 50% of billed amounts plus 12% holiday pay and a 7% pension contribution; the company retains the balance and covers employer tax and back-office operations. All employees hold equal ownership shares, with profits distributed democratically among employee-owners. The firm uses a "Tilrettelegger" internal back-office team to absorb administration, sales support, invoicing, time-tracking, and office management so consultants can focus exclusively on client delivery and professional development. Distribution is direct-to-client, augmented by membership in the Overhuset consortium, which gives Edisys access to multi-specialty engagements via a shared client contact point.

The firm's underlying technology stack is built around enterprise-architecture frameworks (TOGAF, ArchiMate), modeling notations (BPMN, UML, C4), and cloud data platforms (Azure, Databricks, Power BI) on the implementation side. It has no proprietary software product, no public API, no mobile app, and no patent portfolio. Differentiation rests on the seniority of consultants, their embedded roles in Norwegian and European standards bodies, and 30+ years of institutional relationships with regulated public-sector and infrastructure clients. Marketing and demand generation rely on a Norwegian-language thought-leadership blog, case studies, and referrals through Overhuset and the broader Norwegian IT consulting network.
