Making a Contribution

Since 1987, Hanlon has been developing innovative software solutions that make a difference. We’re market leaders in creating – and implementing – unique project monitoring systems which are vital to the success of regeneration schemes throughout the country.

Already we have served over 400 different customers – local authorities, regional development agencies, government departments and a wide range of public and private sector partnerships – all of whom are charged with the responsibility of investing billions of pounds into publicly funded projects.

We’re proud of our track record – using our skills and experience to produce high quality, reliable software packages which help to put us at the forefront of economic development systems design.

Based in Nottingham, within easy reach of most parts of the UK, we have a strong empathy with our clients and their objectives. We also provide high-level consultancy and project management support, helping our rapidly expanding customer portfolio to monitor and manage their programmes in a dynamic and cost effective way.

Our reputation is based on an unswerving commitment to produce fast, effective, value-for-money results for our customers. In the dynamic world of economic regeneration we recognise the importance of collating, reporting and analysing data – our software solutions are designed to produce results which funding agencies can rely on.

Technology that Counts

We use the latest technology to connect communities, people and businesses, working closely with clients to produce turnkey solutions which meet their individual requirements.

Through our ISO 9001 and Investor In People accreditations, we provide a quality and highly flexible response, utilising Prince 2 project management methodolgy to ensure that agreed requirements are met – both on time and within budget.

Underpinned by a comprehensive knowledge of the markets we serve, our software solutions are delivered tailor made and fit for purpose and our service levels are enhanced by a specialist team which offers direct training and support for all our clients.

Hanlon has created an impressive range of powerful software options:

• Our market-leading System K and Impact K provide centralised project monitoring and output measurement information for regeneration schemes. Sophisticated databases, they produce all the statutory and management reports required by a modern regeneration organisation and create impact reports, delivery plans and funding analysis.
• Skills Register is a multi functional, client identification, referral and tracking system for helping people from disadvantaged communities find sustainable employment using a unique skills profiling tool. Producing comprehensive reports for both the deliverer and funder, the system offers total project control.
• Our innovative Sector Manager is a client relationship management profiling tool which helps to target better levels of support to business based on the needs of the SME sector. It builds a comprehensive profile of companies, helping to match their capabilities to market opportunities.

Hanlon software has been used to monitor outputs from schemes attracting funding valued at over £2bn – projects which have helped to find sustainable employment for over 100,000 people, trained a further 250,000 and supported over 20,000 businesses.
