Our Approach
With a heritage of over 30 years, the company is driven by its founders Geoff Ballard and Andrew Chalmers who have distinct backgrounds in technology and business, yet share the same desire to simply make software work better.
We deliver a flexible and mature approach to application development and have adapted methodologies and terms of business to suit the requirements of our clients. Our real-world business and technical expertise mean we are able to work with clients to find the best possible way of interpreting briefs commercially to deliver projects in scope, on time and in budget.
In the main, we provide IT executives and managers of large organisations with expertise and skills on an outsource service and technical partnership basis to help to achieve programme objectives. Our commitment to our clients is that we will bring the best possible expertise and skill to the partnership and deliver, on time and in budget.
We work with UK institutions and enterprises on a broad and varied range of projects. From designing and developing new applications that support business innovation and business process streamlining; to existing application modernisation, and systems integrations – particularly today with hybrid cloud systems, integrating online and offline enterprise systems securely and efficiently.

Expertise you can count on
What is it about the company that you appreciate the most?
Great team with the expertise to get to the heart of the matter and problem solve in a mature and pragmatic way.
What was it about the company that you didn't like which they should do better?
Cheesy, I know, but I can't think of anything. Can't wait to work with them again!
Perfect fit for our business
Since March 2018, they have been supporting and developing our product and we have already made huge advancements in a relatively short time. The care and attention that is applied to the work they have done, the ability to resolve issues quickly, first rate communication and outstanding approach to project management all contribute to the success.
Having been in Information Technology for 30 years, I have never worked with such an agile company before, and I very much doubt we would have made these advancements with any other software partner. It really has been a breath of fresh air to work with Ballard Chalmers and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them.
