About Us
Who We Are	BackGrounD Software Inc. is a privately owned corporation. There are no hidden boards, executive figures, layers of assistants, managers managing management or any of the faceless corporate stuff. Pick up the phone and talk to the owner, get the decision while you are on the phone, close the deal with a shake of the hand. Isn't this what business used to be ?

What We Do	We work with medium to large (enterprise-level) organisations who require *independent, unbiased* and *reliable* IT partner that is *guaranteed* to be *focused* on the most appropriate technological solution for their business needs. We will either integrate or build the solution that suits the customer, from planning and infrastructure all the way to the implementation and maintenance.
