The three of us were friends since our schooling days back in the 80s.

Fast forward to 2007 – we had a collective experience of 30+ years, holding key positions in software development, publishing, and e-learning.

The time felt right for us to take the entrepreneurial plunge!

Quality, Expertise, Trust

"The beginnings of a journey: a spirited team gathers on the inaugural day of focalworks.

We started with a team of 14 and 2 clients – folks who put their trust in us. We just focused on what we knew we were good at – consistently delivering to the promised budget and quality.

Over the 16+ years, we have built some fantastic relationships that have stood the test of time; over 70% of our clients and more than 85% of our key employees have been with us for more than 7 years.

#work

We like solving problems through innovative implementation of technology and high-quality engineering. So much in fact that over the past 16+ years, we have been fairly nimble and non-opinionated in terms of tech stacks, and domain agnostic, always looking forward to new challenges and delivering high-quality solutions.

Our learning (see learning sutras) and technology solutions are used by global organisations across industry verticals.

We are good at what we do.

And we are always looking for the next challenge. Need a partner you can trust?

I have worked with Focalworks for over 10 years and I can’t say enough about this group. A large part of the success of my last two companies can be attributed to Focalworks.

I found their development team to be very knowledgeable, not only in software development but also deployment and infrastructure technologies. Within 5 years of the company’s inception, I was able to sell the platform to the world’s largest testing company who still uses it to manage the test content for the largest certification programs in the world. During the acquisition process, Focalworks was highlighted as one of the key contributors to the software’s success.

After the success I’ve had with Focalworks, it’s doubtful that I’ll ever use another software team.

Our association with Focalworks is more than 10 years old now and the relationship has evolved from being a client-agency relationship to a partnership.

Focalworks team brings in all aspects that one would desire in a trusted agency partner – innovation, creative flair, robust project management, huge commitment to meeting agreed timelines and delivery quality.

I am sure they will keep delivering more and more innovative solutions and services to their clients in the coming years. We wish them all the luck.

Our team has been working with Focalworks for over a decade after an exhaustive search looking for an offshore partner.

Focalworks was able to staff our projects with qualified professionals and has provided a steady team since. On many occasions when the project need required additional resources, they were able to shift in additional capabilities to complete the tasks on hand. Their level of expertise, responsiveness and professionalism is unsurpassed.

They are always flexible and go beyond the call of duty. I highly recommend the Focalworks team.

As a non-technical founder, Focalworks has been a great partner.

I consider the Focalworks team to be an extension of our team, and their end-to-end capabilities enable them to handle any design or technology request that arises.

We rely on them to deliver excellent work on tight timelines, and they frequently surpass expectations!

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Focalworks for over two years, and it’s no exaggeration to say that their work has propelled our business forward.

Strengths lay in excellent development work, design and a problem-solving mentality that is invaluable for a business that is creating something new.

Whatever you dream, Focalworks will find a way to make it happen!

M&C Saatchi has been working with Focalworks for close to 7 years now. During this time, they have helped us with several complex website builds, app development and digital/social media campaign materials.

They are always on the ball, highly dedicated bunch of individuals with great talent and problem solving skills. They have consistently added value and come to us with ingenious solutions that have helped us grow our business.

Once they have undertaken a project, we always rest assured that a high quality product will be delivered on time.

It has been a pleasure working with them and I simply cannot recommend them highly enough.

Peloton Document Solutions

Focal works has been much more than an offshore development vendor for Peloton. They have been a true partner in every sense of the word, completely exceeding my expectations.

Focalworks fills the standard development and QA roles for us, but they also add value in many unexpected ways such as providing feedback on our Agile processes and recommendations on how to improve them, providing architecture guidance and proactively looking for ways to improve our automated testing coverage. I can’t speak highly enough about the entire team and recommend them to anyone looking for a rock-solid and professional offshore team.

Choosing to work with Focalworks will be one of the best decisions you ever make, especially if you treat them as a partner instead of just as a pool of resources.

It has been over a decade of working with Focalworks.

I have been very pleased with the talent and resources they have been able to provide to my projects. The leadership at Focalworks is quick to respond; eager to understand the projects and challenges; lend their expertise to the process.

I have engaged Focalworks with projects that include Application Development, Automated Testing, and eLearning. In the words of Henry Ford, “Coming together is a beginning, staying together is progress, and working together is success.”

Focalworks is truly a development partner and together we have successfully delivered multiple projects.

If you are looking to scale or build capabilities, need a development partner or would simply like to bounce off ideas on building a high-quality website, app, or commerce solution, we’d love to hear from you.
