ABOUT FRONTLINE
OUR STORY
Frontline is group of vertical market software companies inside Harris. These businesses serve the Education, Public Safety, Government, Non-profit and Private Sectors with business critical solutions for their day-to-day operations.
​
The employees of our businesses are passionate about the industries they serve and dedicated to providing our customers with quality software and support. We focus on accountability, responsibility, and ownership because we know our products are mission critical and our customers rely on them working correctly.
OUR VISION
Our ownership philosophy is premised on a decentralized structure with a focus on autonomy and control at the business level with respect of each individual.
​
It allows us to have management teams with strong customer relationships, ownership at the point of contact, and deep market knowledge that is more focused and responsive than would be the case under a centralized management model.
