WHO ARE WE
Founded in 2008 by two of the most intelligent, funny and modest individuals you'll ever have the pleasure of meeting.
We are a hard-working team that look to put the client at the center of everything we do.
We have a direct, hands-on approach to delivering solutions for problems that companies, for far too long, have simply learnt to live with.
Wherever your business is on the spectrum - whether you are on the cutting edge of technological advances or at the start of your tech-journey, we can add value.
Applied Optimization is our methodology and is delivered through people, processes and technology.
We design solutions tailored specifically to your needs - ensuring that you achieve success which we quantify as a reduction in costs, an increase in revenues and reduction of risk.

Meet Megan Starbuck, who cut her teeth in various roles and components in the industry. She also has a background in accounting and payroll and brings that expertise into our Applied Optimisation methodology.
