From roots dating back to the 1980s developing applications using APL, Maddox Ford’s consultants have many years experience of providing IT consultancy as well as software development and implementation services to a range of clients across various market sectors.

Maddox Ford has developed bespoke software solutions covering mainframe, mid-range, client/server and browser-based applications using a variety of development tools - from Cobol and CICS on the mainframe to Visual Basic, Delphi and PowerBuilder on client/server architectures and Java-based applications using internet technology. It also has years of database experience encompassing DB2, Oracle, SQL Server and Sybase as well as Microsoft Access - this experience includes designing and implementing data warehouses and data marts and accessing them from bespoke applications and specialist Business Intelligence tools such as Hyperion.

We also continue to specialise in the two strands of bespoke development that have been our mainstay over many years - Java-based web applications and business intelligence/data warehousing solutions.
