About Us

A trusted partner to deliver

Long-term, mutually beneficial relationships are key to leading rewarding lives and enjoying satisfying careers. We build relationships by looking after each other. We can and should all grow together, so it’s win-win or no deal.

We began in 2002 and have won the trust of global clients such as IKEA, Aramark and World Rugby. Today, Dovetail is an established, highly capable partner, designing and delivering custom solutions for diverse business challenges.

We believe in precision, collaboration and shared success. We’re passionate about quality. We love technology. But most importantly, all that we do, every decision we make, is governed by our core guiding principle: to always respect the client relationship.

If you are facing a unique business challenge, call us for a commitment-free chat. We’re always excited to talk about how technology can help, and we’ll gladly share our experience.
