Development

We build business systems: the ERP that runs the warehouse, the platform that holds the data, the portal your customers log into. This is long-lived, unglamorous software, and what decides whether it succeeds is not the launch. It is whether it can still be changed in year five.

We work in Drupal, Laravel and Vue. Three technologies, chosen narrowly and on purpose, so that we are genuinely good at them and so that you can hire somebody else who is.

How work reaches production

How a build actually goes.

Four stages, and you can stop after any of them. Most of the work that goes wrong in this industry goes wrong between stage one and stage two, so that is the one we write down.

  1. Idea

    You describe the problem in your own words. We ask what it costs you today, and how you work around it.

  2. Plan

    A written scope with a fixed price, the parts we have decided not to build, and what we need from you to start.

  3. Implement

    Built in your repository and deployed from the first week, so you are clicking on the real thing long before it is finished.

  4. Deploy

    It goes live on infrastructure we run, and the support arrangement starts the same day rather than after a handover gap.

Tell us what you are trying to build.

Describe the system you have in mind and we will tell you what it takes, what it costs, and whether we are the right people for it.
