Matillion was formed in 2011 and now employs 23 people, mostly based in an office in the Greater Manchester area. The business was founded to exploit a perceived niche in the market for a Business Information tool that could exploit the security and reliability of high quality, flexible and scalable cloud services to deliver Business Information, initially, to mid-size business. The solution was developed in-house making use of Amazon Web Services(AWS) as a host service for the data and customer. Matillion is now one of Amazon’s small number of AWS “Big Data Competency” holders worldwide. Its two key products include a data integration platform that has a rapidly growing portfolio of Fortune 500 and “Born-On-The-Cloud” “tech” customers, as well as a SaaS offering, delivering powerful business intelligence and easy-to-use self-service reporting for customers across the UK, United States and EMEA.
The review investigated the resilience, supportability and security of software and development platforms used and specifically the feasibility and effort required to take the service to new platforms which would allow Matillion to access a wider potential customer base.
The recommendations in the report prepared were accepted and plans drawn up to make the changes required to facilitate successful investment.

Prime is based at a business park in Whitefield seven miles north of Manchester. The business was established almost twenty years ago by the current executive management team. One of the founders used his IT development skills to design and develop a suite of software tools and an IT Infrastructure to support the delivery of the core document assembly, print and distribution service.
Prime sells its services to large businesses. These businesses contract with Prime to print and post business documents, including invoices and payslips, in bulk. In recent years Prime has extended its service to meet a demand for electronic distribution of documents for some of its customers. Plans were put in place 18 months ago to take this service in-house but this project was not progressed due to other business priorities. The investment secured will back the management team’s plans to expand Prime’s footprint into the global EDM (electronic document management) sector.
The report recommendations were costed, prioritised and accepted as part of the plan for growth of the business and the investment proceeded successfully.
