The Finnish Centre for Pensions recently chose Gofore as its partner for an agile application development team for a second consecutive five-year contract period. The Centre's diverse and ongoing agile application development combines Gofore's agile digital service development and the Centre's Scrum model.

”Finnish Centre of Pensions is extremely satisfied with excellent and good quality co-operation with Gofore. Circa 5 years ago we transitioned to using more agile methods in software development. During these years, the work productivity, quality and cost efficiency have increased significantly. Continuous improvement, co-operation and its meaning have been increased even more in recent years. That’s why it’s great to continue and deepen the partnership also in the future with Gofore, which is an excellent partner for us”, comments Head of IT for Finnish Centre for Pensions Sami Salmi.
Gofore's experts have extensive and diverse work experience with the key technologies used by the Finnish Centre for Pensions and collaboration with the Centre's stakeholders.
“We are thankful for the opportunity to continue and further deepen our good collaboration with the Centre. Our goal is to always determinately develop the cooperation so that it provides the Centre with the maximum value every day. This is what our dedicated team continuously strives for”, comments Gofore's Director of Finnish business Elja Kirjavainen.
Gofore's customers are overall very satisfied with Gofore's service and the value it provides to them. According to the latest customer experience survey this spring, sixty percent of Gofore’s customers feel that the service provided by Gofore exceeds their expectations.
Gofore was also recently selected as a partner for e.g. the Digital and Population Data Services Agency, continuing over 10 years of collaboration.
