Digital sovereignty at Fortes
Digital sovereignty is no longer an abstract concept for many organizations. It is a practical question: where are data and systems located, who is in control, and how dependent do you want to be on technology, infrastructure, and suppliers outside Europe?
At Fortes, we believe that software should not only be functionally strong, but also align with the requirements of organizations that operate in sensitive environments with governance challenges and regulatory constraints.
Our principles
European focus
Fortes develops software from a European perspective, with a strong emphasis on data protection, compliance, and digital sovereignty.
The customer remains in control
Organizations must retain control over their data, access, and configuration. Technology should support that, not obscure it.
Trust and governance as prerequisites
Transparency, traceability, and responsible handling of data are not an afterthought at Fortes, but an integral part of how we develop and position our software.
No hype, just clear choices
We approach topics such as AI, hosting, security, and compliance from a practical and professional perspective. Not from hype, but from the reality of organizations that need to structure their processes properly.
What this means within Fortes
Fortes makes a conscious choice in how we approach data, governance, and technology.
Digital sovereignty is not a separate claim, but a fundamental principle that runs through all our solutions.
This means organizations can rely on software that fits their requirements for control, compliance, and responsibility.

“The management gets the right information for the meetings, and ProjectFlow 365 is just as much a tool for the project managers to prioritize in everyday life."
“ProjectFlow 365 is more intuitive and scaled to what we need.”
“ProjectFlow creates overview and is actively used by the employees on a daily basis. It's not just a management tool. It creates value in the daily operations for everyone.”
"With Fortes we can finally see where the bottlenecks are and what are the consequences of the agreements we make."
Hans Ooms, Project Leader and Controller, LVNL
"Vi har integreret ProjectFlow 365 tæt med vores økonomisystem og Office 365, så vi har én samlet tilgang til styring – og information om – vores projekter."
"What made us decide to go back to Milestones was that it was not only faster and easier than the solution we were using, but it was the personal relationship that stayed with us."
