Fjord Rådgivende Ingeniører A/S

What Fjord Rådgivende Ingeniører A/S does

Fjord Rådgivende Ingeniører A/S is a Danish consulting engineering firm founded in 2022, operating from offices in Søborg (Greater Copenhagen) and Odense (Funen). The firm provides structural engineering, BIM/IKT coordination, project management, and construction supervision for residential, commercial, industrial, and public-sector construction projects across Denmark. It operates in two delivery modes: totalrådgivning (acting as primary consultant managing all engineering disciplines with trusted sub-consultants for installations, fire, acoustics, sustainability, and H&S) and underrådgivning (acting as a structural engineering specialist under a primary consultant such as OBH, JL Engineering, or Sweco). The firm holds in-house certification for KK2, KK3, and KK4 construction classes, enabling self-certification of structural calculations without external dependency.

The firm's technical foundation is BIM-first execution on Revit, with consistency and clash detection across disciplines, supported by structural calculation software for load-bearing design. Fjord has developed proprietary methods for specific construction challenges — including simultaneous casting of foundation slab and beams, lightweight facade transitions for upper-floor setbacks, and a terrace system that avoids penetrating insulation and roofing membranes. Sustainability is a stated design philosophy grounded in material optimization, down-classification of construction and consequence classes, and the use of low-carbon materials such as FutureCEM cement, recycled reinforcement steel, and timber. The firm has delivered DGNB Gold certifications on multiple projects, including Pakhus 47 (25,000 m²), CPH Village Østerbro (4,500 m², under 6 kg CO2/m²/year), Blumersgade (4,600 m²), and TCU Tietgen City (9,080 m²), plus DGNB Silver on the Garmin domicile.

Fjord generates revenue exclusively through professional engineering consulting services on a project-by-project basis, with fees negotiated depending on scope, complexity, and construction class. There is no public pricing, no SaaS or productized offering, and no disclosed subscription or framework revenue model beyond the Ellinge Smedie frame agreement. The client base spans residential developers and housing associations (MTH Projektudvikling, AG Gruppen, Humlebo Gruppen, Togt Ejendomme, Tønder Andelsboligforening), institutional investors (PFA), commercial and industrial clients (Garmin, MT Højgaard, Bygma, Sinding & Co), government-owned urban developers (By & Havn), and municipal governments (Svendborg Kommune). With 25 employees and no disclosed funding, the firm is a privately held, independently operated A/S (CVR 43232495) with no parent company or institutional investors identified.
