Platon grew organically, with successful results since day one to become a market leader in the Information Management space, and this whilst keeping the strategic cornerstones that laid the foundation for the success:
- Independence. Platon has since day one been 100% vendor agnostic and has made a virtue out of staying independent. We believe that you cannot be objective without also being independent and it is always in our client’s interest that we are objective.
- Focus – on Information Management. The focus started out on Data Warehouse and naturally evolved to Business Intelligence and thereafter to Information Management. It’s crucial to stay focused if you want to be the best.
- Hiring the best professionals in the industry. Platon believe that each individual must add significant value from day one to the clients in order to differentiate Platon from its competitors. Our consultants represents a wealth of knowledge and many years of practical working experience across all lines of business both from the consulting side but also from the client side.
- Dedicated to knowledge sharing. Platon believe in people who wish to learn and share in order to ensure that the total knowledge in the company exceeds the knowledge of the sum of the individuals in the company. This philosophy has resulted in the development of Platon Insight® - our knowledge framework for Information Management.
The declared mission of the company is “To support our clients in managing and exploiting information as a strategic asset through consulting services based on a unique Information Management methodology”.
The company is fully owned by employees, resulting in a strong focus on building the right business through strategic initiatives as opposed to simply focusing on the financial performance of the company.

These relationships, combined with the part of our business that is organized around specific technologies, ensure that Platon are constantly up to date with regards to knowledge on the market and the evolving technologies along with the opportunities it creates for our clients.
