Building Digital Foundations for Local Businesses
We're a Birmingham-based technology company dedicated to helping local businesses transition from paper-based processes and spreadsheet chaos to modern, efficient database systems.
Our Story
Forrest Systems Solutions was founded with a simple observation: many local businesses are struggling with outdated data management practices that cost them time, money, and growth opportunities.
We saw manufacturing companies tracking inventory on paper, service businesses losing customer information in email chains, and retailers managing orders across dozens of disconnected spreadsheets.
Our mission became clear: bring modern database technology and custom applications to the businesses that need them most—not just large corporations, but the local companies that form the backbone of our community.
