Custom software built around how your operation actually runs

Off-the-shelf packages make you change the way you work to fit the software. We do it the other way round: we learn your process, then build a focused system that fits it, and nothing you don't need.

Sound familiar?

The signs it's time.

  • You pay for a large package and use a tenth of it.
  • The real process happens in side spreadsheets because the system can't cope.
  • A key workflow depends on one person who knows how everything fits together.
  • Getting a small change made to your current software takes months, if it happens at all.

What we build

Custom software development

  1. Operational tools

    Job tracking, works orders, goods-in, dispatch, stock and traceability, shaped to your terminology and paperwork.

  2. Team workflow systems

    Requests, approvals and handovers between departments, with a record of who did what and when.

  3. Customer-facing tools

    Quote builders, order status pages and portals that save your office answering the same questions.

  4. Internal dashboards

    The handful of numbers each role actually needs, updated automatically.

What you get

Every project, as standard.

  • You own the source code and the data outright.
  • Runs in a web browser on the PCs, tablets and screens you already have.
  • Hosted on a server on your site, or managed by us.
  • Documented, so another developer could pick it up.

Questions

About custom software.

Why custom instead of off-the-shelf?

Off-the-shelf is the right answer when your process is standard. Custom makes sense when the process is what makes you good, or when you are paying for a large package and working around it in spreadsheets. We will tell you which applies in the process review.

What technology do you use?

Proven, boring technology chosen to last: server-rendered web applications, standard databases and as few moving parts as possible. That keeps systems fast, cheap to host and easy for anyone to maintain.

Do we own the code?

Yes. You own the source code and your data. There is no licence fee to keep using what we build.
