In November 2010, the tax consultants Iris Elsner from Wismar, Jens Dühring from Lübeck and Hans-Jürgen Pieper from Trittau founded the edp Elsner Dühring & Pieper Steuerberater + vereidigte Buchprüfer Partnerschaftsgesellschaft with three individual offices. The aim was to be able to offer clients at the respective locations of the partners the individual service of a smaller individual firm in combination with the competence and security of a larger tax consulting firm.

Due to the fact that the offices are located at different sites, the partners immediately digitized their processes so that they could jointly support clients and also react quickly and competently to client requests and requirements in representation situations. For this purpose, the shareholders relied on the services of the market leader, DATEV eG, and have since been using the software provider's highly secure data center. The focus has always been, and still is, on using the latest technology. For this reason, the company has been using DATEV ASP, a shared document management system, for a long time, has digitized its business processes and is also available to assist clients as a competent advisor on digitization matters. Nevertheless, the focus here is never just on what is technically doable, but always on the client and their needs.

Since 2019, we have held the DATEV “Digital Tax Firm” seal of approval.

In 2014, the tax consultant and sworn auditor Hans-Jürgen Pieper retired from the company and the tax consultant Jens Dühring took over the branch in Trittau. Markus Lange, a tax consultant from Meerbusch who is a recognized expert in the field of non-profit organizations and associations, was acquired as an additional partner. In the course of the change of ownership, we changed the company name to edp Elsner Dühring & Partner Steuerberatungsgesellschaft.

At the end of 2016, tax consultant Iris Elsner was drawn to the Black Forest. She initially moved her office to Schramberg and then to Villingen-Schwenningen. There she acquired another tax consultancy, Wolf & Partner GmbH Steuerberatungsgesellschaft, with which edp Steuerberatungsgesellschaft has been cooperating ever since. Now the tax consultancy is active throughout Germany through its branches. In addition, we also serve foreign clients from Scandinavia to Spain and from the USA to China.

In December 2020, edp consult GmbH was founded as a further service provider, which is available as a management consultancy to clients and also to professional colleagues.
