About Meridian

Meridian Informatics was formed in 1989 then, in a frenzy of entrepreneurial confidence, the MIS staff of a major Australian diversified public company decided to outsource themselves.

From this foundation many of Meridian’s key enduring and defining characteristics were established; flexibility, customer & business solution orientation, longer term perspective, a focus (almost passion) on delivering working solutions and ensuring that these solutions continue to deliver value.

Throughout the 1990s Meridian focused and refined its approach, technologies and methods to guarantee successful implementation of business solutions and to maintain the relevance of those in a changing world.

Today we deliver financial service solutions that turn our client’s strategic & tactical business concepts into reality; delivered faster, with greater certainty, for less initial & on-going cost; and we maintain and enhance these throughout their long productive life. We pay special attention to liberating business intelligence and meaningful reporting from the volume of operational data.

See Meridian's History for more details of our journey since 1989.

Our Clients

Meridian's clients have included many of Australian's largest financial organisations; most of the major Banks, many Insurance companies and financial service providers. We have also completed assignments for international organisations in Asia, Europe and North America.

Our Team & Partners

In an industry said to have many smart (?) individuals and organisations we claim a key distinction; the approach, skill, motivation, culture and experience of our team. These have enabled Meridian to claim 100% project delivery success since our formation and some relationships with clients lasting more than a decade.

While many vendors claim past project successes it is often difficult to still find within those organisations the actual individuals or teams that delivered these projects. When Meridian claims project delivery we have done it with teams still working together in Meridian, teams who have been working together for perhaps 10+ years and who have delivered multiple similar projects as a team, learning together from their successes and less frequent mistakes, ("opportunities for improvement").

Profiles of our key resources are in Senior Team Members. While we have a tradition of self reliance as an organisation we benefit from and depend on some important partners and collaborators, an overview of some of these is contained in Meridian's Partners.

Vision

Meridian has always followed client and delivery focused principles what have more recently become expressed in "Agile Methodologies" and more specifically in the Agile Alliance Manifesto.

In Meridian's view among the more important of the principles are,

Our corporate vision and mission are also summed up in meanings of the two words that form our name, see About Our Name for some details.
