Andrew Ferry,
founder and CEO
of Sydney-based
company Baseplan
Software has been
nominated for
Ernst & Young’s
2013
Entrepreneur
of The Year award.
Embodying the
program’s belief
“
entrepreneurs
believe in themselves, their
vision and in making the
world a better place”, Andrew
started Baseplan Software in
his parent’s lounge room in
1987
after observing, in his
Man with plan nominated for award
role as support
manager in
a software
company, that
technology was
advancing more
quickly than his
employer could
adapt to it.
Baseplan
Software has
averaged 25%
growth over the past five
years with offices in Sydney,
Melbourne and the Sunshine
Coast supporting clients in
Australia and New Zealand,
and has already acquired
global communications giant
Motorola Solutions as a client
after opening their US office in
Los Angeles earlier this year.
The key to Baseplan’s success
has been Baseplan Enterprise,
which Andrew describes as the
“
central nervous system of a
business.
“
We are currently developing
gateways so our product
solutions can plug into the
back ends of major global
software houses and service
multinational organisations.”
