Custom Software Development

Software built around how your business actually runs

We map your operations first, then build the system that fits them — instead of a package your team has to work around.

The problem

You probably recognise at least one of these

Most custom software work starts with a business that has outgrown the way it records what it does.

  • The same data is entered three times, in three places, by three people.
  • Nobody can answer a simple question — what did we make on that order? — without an afternoon of digging.
  • The business runs out of spreadsheets that only one person really understands.
  • Off-the-shelf software forced you to change how you work, so staff quietly went back to paper.
  • Two systems hold the same records and disagree with each other.
  • Growth means hiring more people to do more manual work.

None of these are software problems yet. They become software problems once you know exactly which part of the process is costing you money — which is what discovery is for.

What's included

Everything from the first conversation to handover

A custom build is not just development. These are the parts that decide whether the system gets used.

  • Discovery and process mapping

    Time with the people doing the work, and a written picture of how the business runs today.

  • System and workflow design

    Screens, roles and workflows designed around your process before development starts.

  • Custom application build

    The system itself, built to your requirement rather than configured from a template.

  • Data migration

    Existing records moved out of spreadsheets and legacy systems, checked against source.

  • Integration with what you run

    Accounting, hardware, messaging and any systems you are keeping.

  • Deployment, training, handover

    Production deployment, staff training, and documentation your team keeps.

How we work

Discuss, Design, Develop

The tagline is the process. Discovery comes before code on every engagement.

  1. Discuss

    We sit with the people doing the work and map how the business actually runs today — before anyone writes a specification. Most of what matters is found here.

    What you get

    • Process map of how you work today
    • A written problem statement
    • Scope and priority order
  2. Design

    We shape the system, the workflow and the scope together, so you can see what you are getting and what it will change before it is built.

    What you get

    • Workflow and screen design
    • Agreed scope and phasing
    • Delivery plan with dates
  3. Develop

    We build, deploy and stay with it. Senior people remain on the engagement through delivery and handover, not just the pitch.

    What you get

    • Working system in production
    • Data migrated and verified
    • Team trained, documentation handed over

Not sure whether your problem needs software yet?

A 30-minute call is usually enough to tell — and we will say so if it doesn't.

Engagement and pricing

Priced per project or per engagement

No public rates, because scope varies enormously. Tell us what you're trying to do and we'll scope it.

  • Single project

    One defined system, fixed scope, delivered and handed over.

  • Phased build

    The first phase solves the most painful part, later phases follow the value.

  • Retained

    Ongoing development capacity for systems that keep evolving with the business.

A good fit when

  • You have a process that works but is held together by manual effort.
  • The people who do the work can give us time in discovery.
  • You want to own the system, the data and the code.
  • You are prepared to change some process, where the data shows it helps.

Not the right fit when

  • You need a licence for standard accounting or payroll software — buy it, we will integrate with it.
  • You want the cheapest possible build, priced by the hour.
  • Nobody internally can make decisions about process.
  • You need it live next week.
Technology

Stack follows the requirement, not the reverse

We keep this low on the page deliberately. What you should care about is whether the system fits your process.

Application

  • React
  • Next.js
  • Node.js
  • Laravel
  • .NET

Data

  • PostgreSQL
  • MySQL
  • Redis

Infrastructure

  • Docker
  • AWS
  • On-premise deployment
  • CI/CD

Integration

  • REST
  • Webhooks
  • Accounting systems
  • SMS and WhatsApp

Questions

Asked on most first calls

It depends on scope, but a first useful release is usually measured in weeks rather than months. Discovery takes one to two weeks, and we phase delivery so the most painful part of your process is solved first.
