OUR STORY
OVER THE YEARS
Our story began with the desire to change the status quo and provide a better way for organisations to manage internal IT processes. We started with applications but we didn’t rest. Instead we embraced all the trends of the last decade to help hundreds of customers manage change programmes easily and more efficiently.

The Founders
From realising a gap in the market to that small spark that became a product that many of the FTSE depend on, our founders are the driving force behind ManagementStudio. Between them, they have a wealth of experience across different sectors that accumulates into the product and services we offer today.
Justin Pickup
Director & Business Development
Justin came from an application packaging background as one of the founding directors of a niche application migration consultancy. His role there was to develop the teams and processes that would reduce the costs and timescales of large-scale application migration projects. After leaving the company in 2002, Justin developed the first iteration of AppTracker, an application packaging workflow management tool. Written initially in PHP during evenings and weekends, AppTracker became an important management tool in a number of high profile migration projects.
Richard Hynes
Director & Software Architect
A C# developer and technical analyst, Richard spent a number of years working on application migration programmes for some of the major IT Service Suppliers and High Street Banks. The scope of this work was to efficiently migrate large volumes of legacy applications onto new operating systems. This migration and coding experience provided Richard with the expertise and knowledge to begin developing his own workflow management tools. After successfully developing a number of web based applications Richard was ready for his next challenge.
