Custom mobile apps, public sector software, and AI solutions for Cardiff and Welsh businesses — Ortem Technologies delivers world-class digital products at 60% below Welsh agency rates.
Why Ortem?
Ortem Technologies is a trusted software development partner for Welsh businesses across public sector technology, fintech, manufacturing, and creative digital. Cardiff's growing tech scene, Newport's enterprise corridor, Swansea's tech campus, and Wrexham's expanding manufacturing base all create demand for high-quality custom software. Wales benefits from strong Welsh Government digital investment and TechWales's growing startup ecosystem — we deliver UK GDPR-compliant digital solutions at 60% below Welsh agency rates.
Local Market Context
Welsh language compliance is a legal requirement — not a feature request — for any software serving Welsh public sector bodies. The Welsh Language Standards (Section 44) require public sector organisations to provide Welsh language digital services of equal standard to English services, and the Welsh Language Commissioner can investigate complaints. Any application deployed by a Welsh local authority, NHS Wales board, or Welsh Government agency must pass Welsh language assessment. Cardiff Bay's Barrage area hosts a growing cluster of FinTech and InsurTech companies drawn by Cardiff Capital Region's City Deal investment, lower operating costs than London, and Techniquest, Cardiff University, and Cardiff Metropolitan's growing tech talent pool. Wales's steel and automotive manufacturing heritage — Tata Steel Port Talbot, Ford Bridgend alumni supply chain, and Airbus Broughton — is transitioning toward aerospace composites and advanced manufacturing, creating demand for Industry 4.0 software built to Welsh and UK government Made Smarter programme standards.
