Engineer-led IT advisory and software development

We're Danish engineers from DTU with experience from research and industry. We take on everything from a single integration to a complete system.

We reply within 1–2 working days.

01About

Who you'll work with

Thenum is a small team of engineers. We advise and build ourselves, so the people you meet in the first conversation are the ones who do the work.

  1. 01

    Trained at DTU

    We're engineers from DTU, the Technical University of Denmark, with backgrounds in system design, communication technology, and IT and economics.

  2. 02

    Research and industry

    We have experience from both research and industry. That gives us technical depth and a sense of what actually works inside a business.

  3. 03

    Advice and development in one place

    The same people assess the task, write the proposal and do the work. You don't have to explain everything again to a new team.

Read the full testimonial

Thenum built our new website with a webshop. We would like to give Thenum our warmest recommendation. They were a great help throughout the project, with expert guidance, which is invaluable when you aren't an expert in IT and webshops yourself. They worked with focus and dedication. They showed great flexibility. And they stayed within the quoted price. Kind regards TANDEX A/S

05Process

How an engagement works

We always start with a conversation. From there, we agree whether and how to go further.

  1. 01

    First conversation

    We hear what you want to achieve, what you already have in place, and what we need to take into account.

  2. 02

    Proposal

    You get a written proposal with a price and a timeline. If an off-the-shelf system does the job better than anything we'd build, we'll say so.

  3. 03

    Delivery

    If you say yes, we get started. Along the way, you'll always know what's done and what's left.

06Working together

When we're a good fit

We're a good fit when you

  • want a system, webshop or integration built or improved
  • need to choose between systems or suppliers and want a technical assessment first
  • have a project that has stalled and need someone to pick it up
  • want to talk directly to the people doing the work

We're usually not the right choice for

  • General IT operations such as helpdesk, computers and networks. We're happy to point you in the right direction
  • Buying hours where nobody is responsible for the result
  • A cheaper quote for work another supplier already does for you

We advise, and we build. That's the whole business.

07FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does the first conversation cost anything?

No. The first conversation is free and there's no commitment. We use it to understand what you want to achieve, not to sell you something you don't need.

What happens afterwards?

You get a recommendation and a suggested next step. We tell you what we think is right for you, even if the best next step is to wait or to solve it in-house. You decide where to go from there.

How big are the projects you take on?

Anything from a single integration to a complete system. We split larger projects into phases, so you have something working along the way and can decide on the next phase once you've seen the results of the first.

Do you work with non-technical decision-makers?

Yes, often. Many of the people we work with are owners, directors and operations managers without an IT background. We explain the choices so you can decide, without jargon and without hiding what's uncertain.

What is an IT consultant?

An IT consultant is an external specialist a company brings in for a period instead of hiring, to advise on and carry out IT work such as technology choices, systems, integrations and implementation. At Thenum, the consultants are engineers who both advise and do the work. Businesses usually bring us in when they want to build something new, when they have a goal but not the route to it, or when a project has stalled.

What does an IT consultant do?

An IT consultant turns a business goal into concrete technical decisions and sees them through. In practice that means working with management and internal teams, choosing systems and suppliers, designing architecture and integrations, and doing the implementation, with clear agreements and regular updates along the way.
