In short
Forth Systems is an Edinburgh-based software, automation and AI partner working with Southampton clients in banking, payments, insurance, infrastructure and the public sector.

We deliver bespoke software, independent system testing, integration and AI work — UK-staffed, with named engineers and evidence-ready output.
Why Southampton firms work with Forth
Southampton's financial services, transport and insurance operations support a serious software delivery base. We're a small, senior team that ships production-grade software and assurance — not a body-shop consultancy.
What we do for Southampton clients
Bespoke software, independent system testing (UAT, SIT, regression, payments, Open Banking), integration work, legacy modernisation, AI integration and platform engineering — delivered to Southampton-based teams onsite where required.
Industries we serve in Southampton
Banks, payment institutions, fintechs, insurers, asset managers, energy and utilities, transport, councils, NHS boards and industrial operators.
How we engage
Fixed-scope discovery, a 30-day pilot against a real workload, and a continuation engagement with named UK-based engineers. Onsite in Southampton when the work demands it; remote-first otherwise.
