What Wellingtone does

Wellingtone Limited is a UK-headquartered project management company founded in 2001, operating from Windsor with additional offices in Ireland, Spain, India, and the United States. The firm provides a hybrid offering spanning proprietary Microsoft Power Platform software, professional services, and APM/PMI-endorsed training, targeting PMO and portfolio management functions in public sector and enterprise customers.

The company's core technology is the Wellingtone Accelerator+, a Microsoft Power App that transforms Microsoft Planner Premium into an enterprise project and portfolio management (PPM) solution. Accelerator+ is deployed inside the customer's Microsoft 365 tenant using native Microsoft licensing and includes pipeline, projects, baselines, governance workflows, portfolio/programme management, resource management, cost management, RAID logs, and a Power BI reporting suite. The platform is extended by a growing ecosystem of companion applications and plugins (OKRs Management App, Time Management App, Resource/Cost/Gives-and-Gets/Programme Management plugins, Change Management module, Home Page enhancement, and the Marty PMO AI Agent currently in pilot) released on a roughly biannual cadence between 2024 and 2026. A Microsoft Project Online MigrateALL migration tool and SharePoint Designer 2013 workflow replacement address the forced migration window created by Microsoft's retirement of Project Online in September 2026.

The business model combines fixed-price perpetual software licenses (£2,950-£9,950 per module, no monthly subscription), fixed-price professional services engagements (e.g., 3-day PMO Transformation, 10-day Benefits Management Transformation, 10-day Assurance Function Transformation), annual managed support contracts with banked hours, and APM Endorsed / PMI Authorised training delivered publicly or in-house. Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales with senior consultants, public sector procurement through the UK G-Cloud 14 framework (Crown Commercial Service), and event-led demand generation anchored on the FuturePMO conference and Microsoft-located Tech Summits. Customer base spans NHS trusts, UK central government (Home Office, DEFRA), local authorities, higher education institutions, and large private enterprises across manufacturing, retail, construction, aerospace, and pharmaceuticals, with named logos including Honda, KBR, JD Sports, Dyson, Panasonic, Zoetis, Murphy, Serco, and Encirc.
