CM System Designs, business systems for South East SMEs

About us: based in Dorking, Surrey

We are bespoke software developers and business analysts based in Dorking, Surrey. We build business systems for SMEs across the South East. Each system follows that client's workflows.

Chris Palmer and Sigal Kellermann founded CM System Designs in 2017. Between them they have over 30 years' experience building business systems. That experience has taught us that the most important part of the process is understanding, from the outset, what a business is actually trying to achieve and what constrains it. We don't start core development until everyone involved is clear on what the finished system needs to do.

How we work

Every project is delivered by senior engineers with a founder involved throughout, not handed off to a junior team once a contract is signed. Being a small team keeps our overheads low, and that shows up directly in what you pay: you're funding delivery, not an account-management layer or a city-centre office. We build applications that satisfy the requirements you agreed. We do not use your project to try a technology the job does not need.
