Harris Computer builds and acquires mission-critical software businesses for the long term, serving public sector, healthcare, utilities, private sector and insurance markets globally.
Harris Computer is a global builder and acquirer of mission-critical software businesses, serving the Public Sector, Healthcare, Utilities, Private Sector and Insurance markets. Founded in 1976 by Nigel Harris with a computer-operated automated accounting system, the company has spent the decades since building and acquiring software businesses for the long term. It has been part of Constellation Software since 1996 and today serves thousands of customers across multiple vertical markets worldwide.
Rather than operating as a typical software company, Harris acquires businesses with growth potential and holds them for the long term, aiming to provide a "forever home" for the software businesses it brings into its portfolio. Technical work spans mission-critical enterprise software, accounting software automation, and the evaluation and integration of acquisitions. The company operates globally.
Harris states that its work is guided by ten core values, among them respect for the individual, unwavering discipline, and a solution-oriented mindset. Decision-making is pushed to the people closest to the work, and the company says it is committed to helping employees realise personal and professional goals.
