History

PDM&FC was created in 1991, by a group of recent graduated Computer and Electronic Engineers, from Instituto Superior Tecnico, Lisbon.

The need to obtain higher levels of knowledge, drive the majority of PDM&FC founders to follow graduate studies and be involved in exterior national and international projects. That delayed the real startup of PDM&FC, which really started producing in 2001, with 3 workers.

Nowadays PDM&FC has around fifty workers, between those there are four PhDs in computer science and sixteen MScs (both in computer science and in economics).

Since PDM&FC was created the overall bases were:

- Hire very high quality workers.

- Develop open technologies, and solutions.

- Support innovation and technology efficiency in the solutions presented.  

These bases still unchanged since the creation of PDM&FC, and they are the ones that allow PDM&FC to offer high performance solutions with a exceptional liability and usually with smaller development time than our most direct competition. The high level of presented solutions, easily integrate with other components on the client IT structure.

Supporting these bases are the fact that about half of PDM&FC workers have postgraduate studies, and usually present scientific papers in international conferences.
