Overview

Tieto was a leading Finnish IT services company providing software development and IT outsourcing. In 2019, it merged with Norway's Evry to form Tietoevry. Tietoevry is a Nordic enterprise software and technology-services group formed in 2019 through the merger of Finland's Tieto and Norway's EVRY. Tieto was a leading Finnish IT services company providing software development and IT outsourcing, tracing its origins to 1968. EVRY was created in 2010 from the combination of EDB Business Partner and ErgoGroup. The merged group, initially known as TietoEVRY and listed in Helsinki and Oslo, later adopted the shorter Tietoevry brand and focuses on industry software, cloud, data, cybersecurity, and managed technology services. Tieto Oyj, which presents itself as Tieto, is a software and technology consulting company. It describes its work as providing mission-critical solutions to customers across different industries.

Caretech develops technology for health and social care, including the Lifecare portfolio and systems for patients, clients and laboratories.

History

Tietoevry's history combines two major Nordic technology lineages. Tieto originated in Finland in 1968 as a data-processing and information-technology business. Over time it expanded from computing services into systems integration, consulting, software, and sector-specific solutions, becoming one of the most recognizable technology suppliers in Finland and developing a substantial presence elsewhere in the Nordic countries. Tieto was a leading Finnish IT services company providing software development and IT outsourcing. EVRY represented a parallel Norwegian and Nordic technology history. It was formed in 2010 through the merger of EDB Business Partner and ErgoGroup. Those predecessor businesses had supplied IT infrastructure, banking technology, consulting, and public- and private-sector systems. EVRY subsequently grew through additional combinations and acquisitions, building a broad regional services organization with particularly strong positions in Norway and Sweden. In 2019, Tieto and EVRY completed a merger designed to create a larger Nordic digital-services and software company. The combined group was initially known as TietoEVRY and was listed in Helsinki and Oslo. The transaction brought together Tieto's Finnish and international software and consulting activities with EVRY's Norwegian and Scandinavian customer base, infrastructure capabilities, and industry expertise. The stated rationale included greater scale, a stronger software portfolio, broader delivery capacity, and improved ability to support customers' digital transformation. After the merger, the company integrated operations and organized its activities around industry-oriented software and services as well as horizontal technology capabilities. Its customer base spans financial services, healthcare, public administration, education, telecommunications, manufacturing, energy, and retail. This structure reflects the company's business model: it combines recurring software revenue with consulting, systems implementation, managed services, and long-term outsourcing relationships. The group later adopted the shorter Tietoevry brand. Management has increasingly highlighted software, cloud, data, cybersecurity, and industry platforms as strategic growth areas. At the same time, it has sought to simplify the portfolio and improve profitability through business reviews, operational efficiency measures, and selected disposals or strategic changes. The company has also maintained a Nordic identity while using delivery and development resources in several other countries. Tietoevry's history illustrates the consolidation of the Nordic IT-services industry. It has evolved from national data-processing and infrastructure businesses into a listed enterprise technology group supporting digital services that are often operationally critical to customers. The company continues to operate under the Tietoevry name, with its principal activities centered on software, consulting, cloud, data, and managed technology services. The supplied company materials establish Tieto as an active software and technology consulting company, but do not provide its founding date, founders or a dated account of its early corporate history. Accordingly, this history focuses on the company structure and offerings described in the available sources, without inferring earlier events. Tieto describes its business as a combination of specialized software businesses and technology consulting. Its current organization names four areas: Tieto Caretech, Tieto Banktech, Tieto Indtech and Tieto Tech Consulting. This structure brings together software aimed at particular industries and operational needs with a broader technology consulting business. The company says it serves customers in different industries with mission-critical solutions. The Caretech business centers on health and social care technology. The company's software overview describes patient and client systems, laboratory solutions and the Lifecare portfolio, which it says is intended to help care professionals deliver services and support patients. Banktech focuses on financial institutions. Its listed offerings include Banking as a Platform, card solutions, financial-crime prevention, lending and finance software, and payment capabilities. Indtech is described as serving niche markets where data is critical and complexity is high. Tieto also identifies Tech Consulting as one of its specialized businesses and describes its workforce as including software, design, cloud and AI experts. The materials present the company's product approach as emphasizing robust engineering, security-by-design and AI-enabled delivery. Tieto says its solutions are intended to be scalable and reliable, including in highly regulated environments. Its certification information describes a single integrated management system and lists ISO certifications associated with quality management, environmental management, information security and privacy information management. The company reports approximately 13,000 professionals, operations in more than 20 countries and 2025 revenue of EUR 1.8 billion. It states that its shares trade on the NASDAQ exchanges in Helsinki and Stockholm. The supplied materials do not establish a founder, founding year, headquarters, ticker or parent company. Its homepage also describes customer projects across public administration, health and social care, data management, e-commerce and other areas, illustrating the cross-industry nature of the services it presents. Tietoevry's business combines specialized software businesses with technology consulting. Its organization names four principal areas: Tietoevry Care, Tietoevry Banking, Tietoevry Create and Tietoevry Tech Services, alongside Tietoevry Industry.
