Custom Business Software

Every organisation has a few processes that are genuinely its own. Forcing them into generic software means workarounds, exports and a growing list of things the tool cannot do. Building custom software has its own risks: unclear scope, quality that depends on who was available, and code that only the original developer can maintain.

Field operations apps, specialised calculators and configurators, dashboards over data from several sources, tools for a regulated process, client facing utilities, and the internal tool everyone uses that started as one person's script.

We treat scope as the first deliverable: what the software must do, what it must not do, and how we will know it is done. We use proven, well supported technology so that any competent team can maintain the result. Security, testing and documentation are part of the definition of done. Mobile, web or both, the design starts from the people who will use it.

A short discovery produces a written scope, a design and a fixed price or a clear estimate, depending on how well defined the need is. Delivery runs in cycles with a working version you can try after each. You receive the source, the documentation and the deployment setup, and you can choose ongoing support or take it in house.

Software that does the job, and everything needed to keep it doing the job.

• Scope document, design and acceptance criteria
• Tested application with source code and deployment configuration
• User and administrator documentation, and a support option

A tool that fits the way you work instead of the other way round, with a cost and timeline you agreed to in advance, and no dependence on a single developer afterwards.
