What SCHØDT does

SCHØDT A/S is a privately held Danish building consultancy founded in 1999 by Søren Schødt, headquartered in Copenhagen and specialized in maintenance planning and renovation advisory for andelsboligforeninger (cooperative housing associations) and ejerforeninger (owner associations), primarily in Copenhagen and Frederiksberg. The firm is the market-leading provider of vedligeholdelsesplaner (long-term maintenance plans) in Denmark, with 700+ plans delivered and 600+ building projects completed across more than 25 years of operation.

The core service is the vedligeholdelsesplan — a typically 10-year technical condition assessment with prioritized maintenance tasks and budgets — supported by a digitized delivery stack built on the proprietary MinEjendom platform (established 2009, fully scaled by 2012) and the third-party Upsite platform, which give boards and administrators real-time access to budgets and tasks. Around this core, SCHØDT bundles byggeteknisk rådgivning (building technical consulting), byggerådgivning (construction advisory), bygherrerådgivning (client representation), and totalrådgivning (full-project consulting), plus specialist renovation advisory for facades, roofs, windows, balconies, basements, urban renewal (byfornyelse), rooftop apartments (tagboliger), and subsidy navigation (Støjpuljen, Energitilskud, Bygningspuljen). A recurring Rådgiveraftale annual retainer adds a subscription-style relationship layer.

The go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven: direct engagement with volunteer housing-association boards, beginning with a free introductory meeting, property inspection, and quote-based proposal. Revenue is generated primarily through professional-services fees on a project basis, with growing recurring contribution from annual advisory retainers; pricing is quote-based and dependent on property size and complexity, and is not publicly disclosed. The team consists of roughly 20 staff including in-house building constructors, engineers, project managers, architects, and externally attached senior consultants, supported by a network of contractor partners. SCHØDT is founder-controlled, has no disclosed external investors or parent company, and carries an AAA credit rating from Bisnode/Dun & Bradstreet.
