Our company name, Ab Initio, Latin for 'from the beginning', is an appropriate choice as its founder and Company Director, Rhonda Ridge, has been involved in software development and computer technology since the very early days of the PC.

Ab Initio Software had its small beginning back in 1991. Rhonda was working for a family run Double Glazing Installer. Back then most records were kept manually and there was no software package suitable within the industry that could manage the process from Lead through Sale to Service Call. So Rhonda started to develop her own system, now known as AdminBase, and within a couple of years it had developed to such an extent that she was able to offer it to others as a software system for other window companies.

A vital asset to Ab Initio was the addition of Sales and Training Manager, Roy Vassie. With his in-depth knowledge and experience of the Double Glazing Industry, he has demonstrated and installed the software and provided first class on-site training for ten years. We are continuing to expand our sales, marketing and development team and have reason to believe we are now Britain's leading Administration software developers for the Double Glazing Industry.

Ab Initio have made it a policy to listen to their customers requests for additions to the software to the end that AdminBase has become a sophisticated management tool which is generally now recognised as the industry standard and has thousands of users throughout the UK and Ireland, from one-man bands to major manufacturers.
