When you do your shopping on your way home from work, the efficient shop assistant serving you is using EG s retail solution with all functions readily available. Do you dream of a large home? An EG solution was used to provide an overview of the project economy during the renovation of a castle. If you rent your home, your tenancy is probably managed by means of an EG solution. 2
The size of your electricity bill may well be the result of a consumption calculation performed with the use of an EG solution. Energy renovation? The windows, fittings and roofing felt will often be manufactured using an EG solution as is the case with many other products. The tradesman doing the work on your house probably uses an EG solution to manage the building project from start to finish. If you are a DIY person, your DIY centre probably uses a system provided by EG. If you fall out with your neighbour, there is a good chance that your lawyer uses an EG solution to manage the case. When you fall ill, you can confidently contact your GP or the doctor on call a solution from EG ensures that all necessary information is available. Good job that the medication worked!

» In my role as a consultant, I meet our customers face to face and see the context in which the solution is used. Trine Kristensen Consultant Microsoft Dynamics AX Denmark MSc International Business Studies My job as a consultant I have been employed at EG for two years, and in my current position, I work with product development and implementation. This gives me the opportunity to use my business knowledge and my knowledge of the standard product in design solutions and to meet our customers face to face and see the context in which the product is used. My professional life is exactly as challenging as it should be, and I enjoy the project-based approach as it allows me to meet many different people, EG employees and customers alike. In implementation projects, I typically have my own area of responsibility in which I conduct workshops with the customer s employees to train them in using the system and to analyse the need for customisations to the system. In this way, I help to facilitate the customer s implementation of a new system and to ensure that the system will be able to handle the customer s work processes efficiently in the future. The challenges I meet every day are what contribute the most to my development, and I have yet to see tedious tasks. Furthermore, I regularly talk to my immediate manager about my career goals and opportunities for further development. 8
» As a developer, you are usually the customer s hero. Tim Hove Faurskov Senior Developer Microsoft Dynamics AX Denmark Software engineer My job as a developer I have been employed at EG for six years. In my job, I am assigned to various projects and products, and I therefore work with many different people. My daily tasks may involve interaction with colleagues and customers, but I also perform analyses and coding on my own. I collaborate with colleagues and customers virtually and on locations all over the country. As a developer, you are usually the customer s hero. I am the one who actually solves the problem or provides the solution that makes the customer s work easier. I don t always succeed in becoming the hero, but I often do, and it is a great feeling every single time. EG uses many different IT solutions, providing ample opportunity to seek new challenges. During the last year, I have taken courses and certifications in order to try out new technology. I now use these skills in a new team where I have met new and interesting colleagues and, not least, been given new and challenging tasks. I try to keep my old skills sharp and to share my knowledge by being part of our capability lead groups. 9
