It's been a long time coming!

There's an old saying "The cobbler's children have no shoes", and it's been very true for us. We've been so busy working on our clients' systems, we've neglected our own! After four years, we finally decided it was high time we did something about it, so welcome to our new site!

When we set out to build our own site, several things were critical:

• building a company website is very different to building an application. In some ways they are easier, as there are a lot

fewer moving parts, but on the other hand they are more difficult because there's a lot more content. You have to find the right words and the right feel that captures your brand

• we not only wanted the site to be representative of us as a business in terms of culture, we also wanted it to be

representative of the technology we use when we build applications for our clients

• we are foremost a consulting company, so our knowledge is our brand. We needed a way to share and show that knowledge
• we wanted the site to be elegant and simple to maintain

Bringing all these elements together was quite a journey, the result of which is before you now, and we are really pleased with how it turned out.

Over the next couple of weeks we'll expand this article and fill you in on the 3 D's - Design, Development and Deployment, but for now it's time to launch this baby!

Talk soon!
