About HFS

Building financial and location software since 1987.

Hughes Financial Services Inc. (HFS) has developed software since 1987. Our applications have been used at major investment firms and Fortune 500 companies, and our reputation rests on solving hard problems on schedules and budgets others could not match.

Where we started

HFS began with financial applications built on Microsoft Office: portfolio managers, asset allocation and fixed income models, and Excel and Outlook add-ins that automated work across large organizations. Our enterprise clients have included Morgan Stanley and Wells Fargo, along with other major investment firms and Fortune 500 companies. That work produced US Patent 7,073,133 for accessing a data source and enhancing an application.

CDX Technologies

HFS sells its products under the CDX Technologies name. What began as Excel add-ins for ZIP Code and address data has grown into CDXGeoStream, CDXStreamer and CDXZipStream, used for geocoding, address verification, routing and demographic analysis.

Today

Alongside our products, we build and run complete systems for clients, including Summit for True Mountain Capital. See the technologies we use. The tools have changed since 1987. The focus on getting the details right has not.

The book

William Hughes, founder of HFS and CDX Technologies, is the author of Business Intelligence for Location-Based Data, a practical guide to turning geographic data into strategic business decisions.
