Business software,
built from experience.

Our operational perspective comes from more than fifteen years of experience across the service and manufacturing sectors. Our technical foundation is shaped by more than twenty years of building and operating technology for major financial institutions.

Why we built Datum

Growing businesses often face a difficult choice. Enterprise ERP can be costly and slow to implement. Smaller business systems cover the fundamentals but often leave operational complexity to spreadsheets.

We've worked in that gap. Purchase order updates came through message threads, stock was tracked in spreadsheets, and the real cost of a job showed up in the accounts after it was too late to act. The information existed. It just lived in different places. A late delivery isn't only a purchasing problem: it changes the plan, the cash position, and the promise to the customer. Finance can only explain the result as clearly as the underlying work was recorded.

Datum brings that work together in a unified platform that fits the business. Standard supports connected everyday operations, Millwork adds specialist production workflows, and Finance brings financial data from multiple companies and currencies together for consolidation and reporting.

Operational experience.
Engineering depth.

Datum draws on two kinds of experience: running the work and building the systems that support it.

Operations

More than fifteen years of hands-on experience across service and manufacturing businesses on multiple continents, from running production facilities to managing supply chains where every material, milestone, and dollar had to be accounted for.

It's why Datum is built for the days that don't go to plan: partial deliveries, substitutions, price changes, and reversals.

Technical leadership

Technical leadership brings more than twenty years of enterprise IT experience, including building and operating technology infrastructure in the financial sector.

That experience is why reliable records, appropriate access, and a clear history of important changes are part of Datum from the start. It is also why Dot helps people find answers and prepare work while your team's permissions and approvals continue to decide what happens.

Your workflows.
Our starting point.

Before anything is set up, we learn how your business runs: the tools you use, where handoffs slow down, and what you need to see to make decisions.

Together, we choose the edition that fits your business and agree the accounting setup, data imports, controls, and rollout plan. Every edition includes its standard modules, while any company-specific custom modules are scoped separately. The proposal sets out the implementation, training, rollout support, and associated costs up front.
