About Zco Corporation
Zco’s story began in 1989, when our president, John Olapurath, founded the company with a vision of helping organizations overcome complex business challenges through custom software solutions. He brought deep experience to the venture, having helped develop DECnet at Digital Equipment Corporation and built AimTech Corporation into one of New Hampshire’s leading software companies. Inspired by seeing firsthand how thoughtfully engineered software can transform business efficiency, he built Zco into a company rooted in strong engineering principles, client collaboration, and continuous innovation.
We started by developing Windows-based business applications that replaced manual processes, simplified data management, and improved operational efficiency. As technology evolved, we expanded into enterprise web development using ASP, PHP, Java, and ASP.NET, helping businesses move from standalone desktop software to scalable, web-based solutions.
This steady expansion into new technologies set the stage for Zco’s next shift. In 2007, well before mobile-first became an industry standard, we recognized that smartphones would fundamentally change how people used technology, and began applying our desktop and enterprise experience to mobile app development. From there, as software ecosystems became more interconnected, we kept building on that expertise, helping organizations create connected, cloud-integrated systems that could exchange data in real time.
Today, Zco is a trusted custom software and mobile app development company serving businesses across the United States. As artificial intelligence represents the next evolution of software, we help organizations harness it through intelligent applications, automation, and data-driven solutions. We also use AI throughout our own development processes to enhance productivity, accelerate delivery, and enable our teams to focus on solving more complex engineering challenges.
Our Vision
Creating long-term partnerships with organizations that need a trusted technology partner to rely on to navigate change, embrace new opportunities, and build intelligent software solutions that remain valuable as their needs evolve.
Our Mission
Our mission is to help businesses with unique ideas make confident technology decisions and turn them into custom digital solutions that are sustainable, valuable, and built to last. We work closely with our clients at every stage, shaping the vision, solving challenges as they come up, incorporating feedback, and helping them bring their software to market successfully.
Thirty-Five Years of Custom Software Development Taught Us What Doesn’t Change
Today, clients expect software that scales globally, integrates with dozens of systems, protects sensitive data, delivers consumer-grade user experiences, and continuously evolves after launch. Yet, the qualities clients value most have remained remarkably consistent.
They want a custom software development partner who:
- Communicates openly.
- Delivers end-to-end solutions as promised.
- Builds software that lasts.
- Stays available long after launch.
- Adapts as their business grows.
Those expectations have shaped our delivery approach just as much as any programming language ever has.
Custom Software Development Approach Refined By Experience
Every project we’ve delivered across iOS, Android, web, and cloud has helped us refine our software development process that puts our clients in the best position to succeed.
- We validate ideas before development begins.
- We design for the future rather than today’s requirements.
- We build in measurable milestones instead of surprises.
- We involve clients throughout the process instead of waiting until launch.
- We combine proven engineering practices with AI-assisted development to accelerate delivery.

Industries We’ve Helped Transform
Working at Zco
We look for people who take pride in building great software, enjoy solving complex problems, and never stop learning. Because our team is always exploring new tools, platforms, and ways of working that help us deliver better outcomes for our clients.
Through staff augmentation, our people work directly with client teams, sometimes onsite, sometimes remote, depending on the project. That means each project brings opportunities to learn new industries, technologies, and ways of working.
Some team members have been with Zco since the beginning, reflecting the kind of environment where people build long-term careers. We value collaboration, encourage ideas at every level, and support growth in many directions, whether that means deepening technical expertise, working closer with clients, or moving into leadership.
Our Locations
In July of 2022, we officially moved into Trafalgar Square in Nashua, New Hampshire. Trafalgar Square is described as being a “prestigious business center clad in a modernist glass façade” with stunning views and close proximity to other great local businesses. Our modern conference room in the glass tower is really something to behold!
We also operate satellite offices in Boston and New York to provide convenient meeting locations for our clients.
