Background

Pennine Data started in 1992 when Nick Hill graduated from Bradford University (Information Systems Science). Nick used to work in engineering and found himself being progressively more involved in developing software to solve engineering and business problems. Before graduating, several companies approached Nick to develop computer solutions - hence the birth of Pennine Data.

During 1996, Pennine Data was moving into providing a wider range of business solutions and a partnership was formed between Nick and Rory Argyle. This brought together technical, business and internet related skills into one consultancy.

Our skills cover many facets of information technology. These include, but are not limited to, PC's, networks, web-sites, internet & intranet applications, databases, data acquisition & control, print management, data communications (including ATM), real time, DOS, Windows and UNIX programming.
