Architecture and design
Technology choices argued against your operating horizon and the skills you have in-house. We document the trade-offs, including the options we rejected and why.
Capabilities
Custom software engineering
Custom software earns its place where your operational edge lives. Nowhere else.
The symptom you'll recognise
A critical spreadsheet, built years ago by someone who has since left, runs part of your business. Nobody dares touch it. Or you've evaluated four packages and none handles the one specificity that is precisely what your business is.
We don't build custom what a packaged product already does well — that would be selling you maintenance debt. We build specific software where your process has no market equivalent: a proprietary calculation, a particular regulatory constraint, an integration no vendor covers.
No commitment — you leave with an order of magnitude.
What we do
Web and mobile business applications
Field data-capture interfaces, customer and supplier portals, technician mobility apps — including degraded-mode operation where site connectivity demands it.
Integration and interfaces
APIs, connectors and data flows between your existing systems — ERP, CMMS, finance and line-of-business tools — to eliminate re-keying and manual exports.
Legacy recovery and modernisation
Taking over unmaintained legacy applications: audit, documentation, stabilisation, then progressive migration — without a full rewrite imposed up front.
What you receive
Deliverables, not promises
- Architecture dossier with documented technical trade-offs
- Source code delivered, version-controlled and transferable
- Test and production environments with a deployment procedure
- Technical and end-user documentation
- Knowledge transfer to your internal teams
Frequently asked questions
Do we own the code you produce?
Yes. Source code is delivered to you and you hold the rights. We version it in a repository you can access from day one of the project, not at final delivery.
How do you avoid the tunnel effect?
Short, demonstrable deliveries. You see a usable increment running at regular intervals, which lets you change direction before the cost of change becomes prohibitive.
Can you take over development started by another supplier?
Yes, after an audit of the code and infrastructure. You get an honest assessment of what is salvageable and what would cost more to maintain than to rebuild.
