The complicated problems are the interesting ones.
About us
We’re a small senior team that builds large systems and then stays to run them.
Founded in 2003, we’ve spent 20+ years doing that for major public- and private-sector organisations, from Innovate UK’s grant funding service to the GoodFlexi platform.
Wondering about the name? What ‘polymorphism’ actually means — a nerdier read on the idea behind it.
the senior team
The people on this page are the people who do the work.

25 years building large public- and private-sector systems. Tom is the architect behind the GoodFlexi platform, was one of the most active engineers on Innovate UK’s Innovation Funding Service, and built infrastructure for the NHS’s Care Identity Service.

Senior Java architect. Richard shaped the GoodFlexi platform’s technical architecture and led its expansion to the US, and worked on Innovate UK’s Innovation Funding Service.
our city
We’re based in Sheffield, and we love it — two great universities, a booming creative and digital scene, and the only UK city with a National Park inside its boundary: the Peak District.
It is also said to be built on seven hills, though nobody agrees which. We wrote a paper that settles it.
our workspace
We work at the Electric Works on the Sheffield Digital Campus, home to Britain’s only indoor office helter-skelter — third floor to reception in 7 seconds. Visit us and you can have a go.
