About — Fivium

Our why We believe better is always possible

Look around: how many systems and processes leave you frustrated, thinking there must be a better way?

We’re constantly aiming for better. Better workflows that don't waste your time. Better solutions that help rather than hinder. Better technology that fits in with you, not the other way around.

We do what we do because we genuinely care about having a positive impact. After all, if we can make your technology better, you can focus on what really matters.

Our vision A trusted, efficient public sector empowered by technology

Our goal is simple: transformational digital solutions in every corner of the public sector – so every department and organisation can work accountably and efficiently. Public sector teams freed up to do the work that really matters. Citizens having access to the services and information they need, when they need it.

We measure our success by hours saved, stress eliminated, and problems solved. When a government department processes cases faster, when a regulatory team responds to changes instantly, when people leave work feeling accomplished rather than frustrated – that’s a job well done.

Our mission To create digital products and services that make the public sector work better for everyone

We create technology that solves real public sector problems in thoughtful ways – providing better services while making public sector jobs easier.

But we don't just build technology – we build partnerships. Because great technology is just the beginning. Expertise, guidance, and constant optimisation is what turns good technology into transformational results.

We apply the same mentality to our team, creating relationships that empower our people to flourish while making a genuine difference. It's why our first employees are still here, why we retain 99.99% of our customer contracts, and why we're still the kind of company our founders wanted to work for.

Our values We don't just show up, we show up invested

Care beyond contracts

When you care about your work, you deserve to work with people who care just as much. We don't just deliver and disappear. We put in the effort. We go above and beyond. And we always do the right thing.

Honesty over ego

Innovating means challenging ourselves and each other. We care about impact, not about being the smartest in the room. So we keep asking questions that help everyone deliver, better.

Built to last, designed to evolve

Everything we do is designed to stand the test of time – adapting, growing, always improving. From the digital services we build, to the relationships we forge, to how we nurture our team.

Our storyFivium was born from a desire to do better

Working at the Department of Trade and Industry, computer science graduates Matt Fletcher and Anthony Ashton saw more and more ways that they could boost government efficiency and reduce corporate exploitation. They believed they could deliver better digital solutions faster and cheaper than existing suppliers.

In 2005, they got their chance to make a difference. They pitched for, and won, the work to take over the build and support of an ailing critical project for a government licensing platform. Soon another government department came knocking, and another, and another. Fivium was born.

From day one, Fivium defined itself by three principles: 1. Understanding, 2. Caring, and 3. Delivering. Twenty years later, our ethos remains unchanged.
