About Us | Ferrio

The integration sweet spot

Our integrations combine the flexibility of a bespoke software project with the convenience of an out-of-the-box solution.
Our modular design means we start every project at 90% completion — no lengthy scoping exercise required — then configure the integration to match your requirements, delivering a comprehensive, tailored solution in as little as four weeks.

FM specialists

There are plenty of software consultancies who are good at building integrations. At Ferrio, we’re not just integration experts, and we’re not just experts at delivering complex integrations between FSM software and other apps — we're specifically experts in inter-company integrations between FSMs and CAFM/PMS software.
We used to build FSM software and bespoke integrations for FSM software, then we built a dedicated platform for integrating software used in FM. When it comes to integrations, we may just know how your business works better than you do.

Built by engineers

While we have a number of angel investors on our board, Ferrio is majority owned and run by engineers. That means the people building our roadmap understand the problems we’re here to solve. That means we don’t measure success by the value of our stock, but by the quality of our work and the satisfaction of our customers. That means, we win when you’re happy.

Our Story

Ferrio was founded in 2021 by Dan Blaney and Alex Humphreys to deliver better integrations to the Facilities Management industry.
We started working together at a field service software provider, where we were responsible for delivering complex, bespoke integrations to facilities services companies and realised — we were doing integration wrong.
We were designing integrations to eliminate copy-pasting and repetitive tasks, but meanwhile, we were needlessly recreating the same bits of code from scratch for each new client project. In fact, most integrations largely worked the same every time, even across different apps that seemed superficially different.
We realised that we could do this better: build a platform for integration to embed that common core functionality, with modular components to support the nuances of how each application worked, and deliver integrations faster and cheaper.
We started working on building that platform and launched Ferrio in 2021. Since then we’ve matured from a scrappy startup to an established SME, with a market-leading platform, partnerships with major software providers.

Alex Humphreys and Daniel Blaney

Daniel Blaney

MANAGING DIRECTOR

As Managing Director, Dan's primary responsibility is setting Ferrio's product strategy, ensuring everything we produce solves clear problems for our customers in a scalable and repeatable way.
Dan brings a heavily customer-led philosophy to product development and spends the majority of his time directly interacting with our customers.
When not on a Teams call with one of Ferrio's customers, Dan can usually be found in the hills around Sheffield on a mountain bike, or serving yet another failed culinary experiment to his long-suffering wife.

Alex Humphreys

TECHNICAL DIRECTOR

Alex leads the development of the low-code automation and integration platform that underpins our business operations. With a focus on scalability, security, and uptime, he ensures our technology remains robust, reliable and ready to adapt as we grow.
Alex's strengths combine deep technical understanding with clear vision. His oversight ensures our team have all the tools they need to deliver maximum value to our customers.
Outside of work, Alex can often be found on the climbing wall, where bouldering provides both a physical challenge and a welcome change from digital problem-solving.

Mark Cody

SALES & MARKETING DIRECTOR

Mark's primary focus is the translation of our value to the world, showing how Ferrio Connect can solve real-world problems and return measurable value for our customers.
Mark is driven to help people find the perfect solution for their needs, whether that's an existing service, a bespoke fix or even guiding them to other options when we're not the right fit.
When Mark has any free time, he likes to spend it with his family, as well as getting involved in events and activities that give back to the local community.

Martin Smyllie

HEAD OF SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT

Martin's primary job is to look after development of the Ferrio Connect platform, ensuring that it is secure, reliable & has the right capabilities to meet our customer's needs.

In his free time Martin can be often be found riding or tinkering with bicycles, usually in preparation for some cycling related challenge.

Alex Keen

MARKETING & BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER

Alex's job is to explain what we do, how we do it and why it matters. He’s responsible for Ferrio’s website, industry events, service descriptions, proposal documents, testimonial videos and LinkedIn posts.

In his free time, Alex performs in improv comedy shows, plays tabletop games, visits National Trust properties and reads a lot of books.

We hate busywork and love solutions that scale. Everything that can be automated, should be automated.
