Company
Covalent is the only software supplier that was formed specifically to develop and market
Performance Management software for the Public Sector.
Covalent works right across the public sector - Councils, Housing Associations, PCTs & Hospital Trusts,
Further Education Colleges, Charities, Emergency Services, Regional Government and Government Departments/ Agencies.
Covalent has customers right across the UK, from southern Cornwall to northern Scotland.
Our goal is to make Covalent the leading Performance Management software solution in the public sector,
by offering the best functionality at the best price. This is our only market, so product development is
totally dictated by public sector needs. Our staff are highly knowledgeable and understand the particular
issues facing public sector organisations - many have themselves previously worked for a public sector body.
“Genuine and honest attempts to meet customer requirements”
“They keep the customer well informed, do what they say they are going to do”
“The software is excellent, it does exactly what it says on the tin”
100% of customers that use Covalent would recommend the software to other organisations.*
* Based on survey of 55 customers at User Conferences in 2005 and 2006
Why the name Covalent?
Covalent bonding is a form of chemical bonding based on atoms binding tightly together by sharing electrons
with each other. The Covalent software product is so-named to reinforce the concept of bonding; in this case
tightly aligning the work people actually do with what the customer organisation is trying to achieve.
Covalent does this by linking objectives with the performance measures in use, from corporate through departmental
to individuals so that work done and resources used are aligned to strategic priorities and aims.
