Our Philosophy

The essence of any IT solution is to secure business advantages. To do so, the platform must function optimally in relation to both short- and long-term requirements. A durable IT system is one that can adapt to both technology and business related developments as they emerge while taking advantage of all they have to offer. A durable IT solution is a solid investment, both for the present and for the future.

Schantz utilizes the most modern tools and methods within system development in order to secure long-lasting solutions. Through close dialogue with our clients and Schantz' extensive knowledge and experience within finance and insurance procedures, our consultants take care of your IT system requirements, developing flexible solutions designed to match your needs and grow with your business.

Our History

Schantz A/S was founded by Morten Schantz in 1994. A few years later, Ole Smedegaard came on-board as Business Partner, and together they established the foundation of Schantz A/S as we know it today - the market leader in its field of expertise. Since then, Schantz has grown steadily, and its client base has swelled as more potential clients, including large corporations from outside of Denmark, have learned about the company. The next leap was taken in 2007 when Schantz was merged into BEC as an independent business division.

Presently, Schantz employs more than 60 dedicated staff and enjoys an annual turnover of approx. 70 mill. Dkk. Our clients can be found in Denmark, The Faroe Islands, England, Holland and The Baltics. In just over a decade, and entirely through inside financing, Schantz has impressed the business world by its rapid growth and self-made success.

Schantz' impressive development has not gone unnoted. Schantz has been nominated several times as a "Gazelle" company by Borsen – Denmarks leading business magazine. In 2007, the chief IT magazine of Denmark Computerworld, awarded Schantz a First Place as the most outstanding software company in the category for Specific Business Software.

Our Values

At Schantz we keep our values simple, clear and strong, and can therefore sum them up in this single sentence: "Schantz will maintain the highest standards throughout the entire process - from idea to delivered product."
We live by two key words: Integrity and Respect. We stand for Integrity in each and every customer relationship. And we promote Respect - for high quality and excellent design as well as for our partners and for each other.

Sustainability

Schantz is a firm believer in CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) and that any modern company should maintain keen social values. However, we take our responsibilities even further because, in our book, CSR is also about our employees.

That is the reason that we take great pride in our open professional environment. We give our employees a large amount of freedom to influence their own work methods and schedules. We do not apply pressure with demands for overtime or unreasonable deadlines. We encourage our employees to ensure quality time with their families. And, of course, we have our fusball or table soccer-tournaments and planned get-together events, which make it even more fun to work at Schantz..

The trust we invest in our employees is paid back many times over through a chain of values and their effects. When our employees feel they are valued, respected and trusted, then their families share in their positive frame of mind, which prevents stress and minimizes absence from work. This results in stability and increased energy channeled into the work environment, kindling an unselfish and dynamic atmosphere that enhances knowledge-sharing and consistent synergy, making us even better at what we do. Our positive energy shines through in our relations with clients and partners, and our reputation for high quality, dedication and forthcoming service speaks for itself.

Along with today's forward-looking companies, the world's environment concerns us, and we strive to do our share in minimizing CO2 pollution and global warming. Schantz employs special environmental-friendly cooling systems on its servers, which saves up to 50% energy in relation to conventional methods.
