About Us

Solstice Associates was established in early 1999 and incorporated the following year, trading from offices at Lime Kiln Quay, Woodbridge, Suffolk. Since 1999 Solstice has enjoyed ongoing success and steady growth, moving to larger premises in the market town of Hadleigh, Suffolk In 2001 and again in 2007.

What we do

The Solstice team specialises in the development of custom online software and intranet solutions and interactive resources for a range of uses from public information services, energy, environmental and whole life cost benchmarking to continuous improvement and performance management systems.

Building close working relationships with our clients is central to the way we work and deliver our services. This allows us to understand their needs, which in turn ensures we are able to provide pertinent advice and support throughout the lifetime of evolving projects. An essential element of our ongoing client relationships is our commitment to including technical liaison within the mix of graphic design, interface and software engineering skills for each project team to ensure clear communication at all times as part of a straightforward, friendly and transparent service. This arrangement has been highly successful, seeing projects delivered to schedule and budget and ensuring that around half our annual turn-over is generated from repeat business from established clients.

Our proven approach for creating our innovative software solutions and ensuring success of their operation and use is to focus on user requirements in terms of modes of access, overall user journey, functionality and performance. We make a clear distinction between interface and application design and apply the appropriate mix of skills to deliver fully engineered, efficient and scalable functionality via secure, highly finished and intuitive interfaces.

The effectiveness of this approach is demonstrated by our extensive portfolio of applications, tools and resources, developed in support of both public and private initiatives, sponsored by a range of organisations from universities to central government.
