The Strength of Great Partnerships

In 2007, Matthews made a very conscious decision. Unlike the other guys, Matthews decided not to develop business software in-house, choosing to focus on what they do best instead. Matthews chose to partner with a proven technology leader with roots in funeral service to help provide their customers with the real technology solutions they wanted, not just the solutions a casket manufacture wanted them to have. This move helped position Matthews as a different kind of casket company, bent on helping their clients get the real solutions they need to compete in today's changing market. This move was designed to ensure that there would be no possibility or perception of Matthews owning, controlling or having access to client data. FrontRunner is an independent, family-owned technology company that prides itself on providing world-class solutions for funeral professionals. We deeply value Matthews aiding our goal by being an exclusive distributor of FrontRunner products and services. Their distribution network and straightforward approach has helped us become the funeral profession's leading technology company.

Our strength-in-numbers approach to serving funeral service means we needed to partner with a diverse selection of leading companies, including those specializing in grief support, as well as answering services and casket companies with the finest reputations. Other integration partners include pet care providers, payment processing firms, and video creation companies. We've allied ourselves with the best providers and the best funeral firms—and will continue to add to this five-star roster.

FrontRunner works with some of the professions most esteemed Professional Associations. We have developed a World Class "Association Program" which includes an advanced website presence that is feature rich at no cost to the Association. Why do we do it? The answer is simple - we care deeply about the future of funeral service and will continue to work with professional associations to ensure that they have access to the technology resources that will help them and their members to excel and succeed with the new challenges they face.

We've done our best to create a new world of choice for web developers and programmers, opening our system up to attract some of the most brilliant minds in your community and around the world who will use it to set a higher standard for their clients and grow their businesses in ways they never thought possible.
