DEK Technologies

What DEK Technologies does

DEK Technologies is a global provider of software and hardware development services to hi-tech industries, founded in 1999 and headquartered in Melbourne, Australia. The company delivers end-to-end design, development, and implementation services across two core offerings: professional software development and professional hardware development, including design, prototyping, and development of hardware components and systems. DEK serves clients in five primary verticals — telecommunications, technology, media, payments, and healthcare — combining a human-centered approach with industry-specific technical expertise.

The company operated four offices across three countries prior to and following the acquisition: Melbourne (Australia), Stockholm (Sweden, Kista), Ho Chi Minh City, and Hanoi (Vietnam), giving it a delivery footprint spanning Oceania, Europe, and Southeast Asia. Its go-to-market was B2B and direct — engaging enterprise clients via project-based, quote-driven engagements rather than packaged product offerings. DEK has been acquired by Endava and now operates as a subsidiary brand within Endava's global organization, leveraging Endava's broader content marketing infrastructure (articles, whitepapers, webinars, podcasts, events) and proprietary platforms (Dava.Flow, Dava.X, Dava.Y, Dava.Rise, Dava.Studios).

Business model: project-based professional services revenue with no publicly disclosed pricing tiers. Customer segments were organized vertically across five industries, and distribution was through direct enterprise sales engagement. No patents, trademarks, certifications, or proprietary AI capabilities are disclosed in the available source material, and revenue figures are not public.
