Foard.biz is a provider of innovative technology solutions. We believe that the use of compute power, delivered as a service (XaaS), open source software  and agile management development techniques can make a great impact on the cost, performance, security and reliability of enterprise systems. Together these concepts enable cloud computing and can help transform an organization into an innovative and adaptive enterprise.

The four pillars of our consulting strategy are:
  • Agile Management - ensure that the open source applications bring enterprise-class functionality in a timely manner and at a much lower level of complexity and cost
  • Open source software solutions - reduce cost and risk associated with proprietary software and enable our clients to meet an increasingly diverse set of business needs
  • Cloud Computing - model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a rapidly deployable, shared pool of configurable computing resources.
  • XaaS (Anything as a Service) - the essence of cloud computing and a low-cost way for businesses to obtain the same benefits of internally operated software without the associated complexity or high initial cost
