Computer Software - , Ontario, Canada
Background: In 2002 CutCom Software was founded by Queen's University computer science graduate Chris Sinkinson. As Chris worked at a local photocopier and office furniture business he noted that there was an opportunity to utilise new technology to make businesses more efficient, particularly with regards to paper documentation.Countless hours and literally millions of lines of code later, Chris in collaboration with the local firm created SentryFile, a technologically advanced document management solution and CutCom Software's original product. It was a perfect fit – the local firm helped Chris sell his first copies of the document management software in conjunction with photocopier sales.The product was met with significant interest across North America. In fact, the first paying customer for SentryFile was the Toronto Dominion bank, the second largest bank in Canada.Since its humble beginnings, SentryFile has ballooned and is now sold by over 200 photocopier dealers in Canada and the United States. To date over 1,400 units of SentryFile have been distributed.The solid foundation provided by SentryFile's sales enabled CutCom to grow into the multi-product company that it is today. Chris' perseverance in the face of the monumental task of creating CutCom's first product by himself has played a major role in shaping the work culture of the company.Principles:CutCom Software's culture is based off of 5 team principles (see our website for details). These principles guide the day to day decisions of CutCom employees.We don't care when employees come in to work, we don't care if they work from home, and we don't care what they wear around the office. We care about what they produce.We're also big believers in the MVP approach; the Minimum Viable Product. Our priority is to get a "half-product" in front of the customer as soon as possible so that we can get feedback, iterate, and satisfy market needs.
