What we build

The things businesses ask us to build

Every build is bespoke, but the problems rhyme. These are the six we get asked for most, and if one of them sounds like your Tuesday, it's worth a conversation.

Operations dashboards

Everything your team currently chases across five tabs, on one screen. Live numbers, exceptions flagged, no more "let me check and call you back".

CWelcome back

Client portals

Your customers log in and see their own orders, jobs or account, without ringing your office. Fewer status calls, happier clients.

Ordering & quoting systems

Trade customers place orders or build quotes against your live pricing and stock. No phone tennis, no re-keying into accounts.

Spreadsheet replacements

That critical spreadsheet only Sandra understands becomes real software: multi-user, validated, backed up, and impossible to break with one wrong paste.

Booking & scheduling

Jobs, deliveries, rooms or people, scheduled through one system that knows your rules. Double-bookings and lost slots stop happening.

Warehouse & stock systems

Pick, pack, dispatch and stock control built around your floor, not a generic WMS you bend to fit. Connected to your store and couriers.

How we build

How a build actually goes

No twelve-month mystery projects. A fixed price before we start, a working version in weeks, and software your team helped shape. You own the code at the end.

We scope it before we price it.

We sit with the people who'll actually use the software and map how the work really flows. Then you get a fixed price for a defined first phase. Not an estimate that doubles.

Fixed price · no surprises

You see it working early.

A usable version is in your hands within weeks, not unveiled after months. You click through real screens with real data while there's still time to change course cheaply.

Working software in weeks

Your team shapes the build.

We work in short cycles and adjust as your team uses it. The version that launches is the one they helped design, so adoption isn't a battle. It's their tool.

Built with the people who use it

You own it. We stick around.

Full source code, documentation, no lock-in. Most clients keep us on to maintain and extend the platform as the business changes, but that's a choice, never a hostage situation.

Case study: Lama Fulfilment

Lama Fulfilment · Bespoke ops dashboard

A fulfilment company running on spreadsheets. We built them a proper ops platform.

Lama Fulfilment needed a central place for their clients to manage orders, track pick and dispatch progress, and give their team real-time visibility across the warehouse floor. Off-the-shelf tools either did too much or not enough, and none of them fit the way the business actually operated. We built a bespoke operations dashboard from the ground up: a live order pipeline, real-time metrics, exception flagging, and client-level reporting. The team went from chasing updates in spreadsheets to running the entire operation from one screen.

systems integrated

I've worked with Harri for the best part of a decade across different projects, and this is the biggest one: a full operations platform built around how we actually work, not how some off-the-shelf tool thinks a warehouse should run. My team wouldn't go back.

Questions

The things people ask before they start.

How long does a custom build take?

It depends on scope, but most first releases land in eight to sixteen weeks. We work in short cycles and get a usable version in front of you early, so you are seeing real progress within weeks rather than waiting months for a big reveal.

Do we own the code?

Yes, completely. Everything we build is yours, handed over with full source access and documentation. There is no lock-in and no situation where you are held hostage by your own software. Any competent developer can pick it up.

Can it integrate with the tools we already use?

Almost always. We connect to accounting software, couriers, e-commerce platforms, CRMs and anything with an API. Where there is no API, we find a sensible route. Integration is a core part of what we do, not an afterthought.

What happens after launch?

We stick around. Most clients keep us on a support arrangement so the platform is maintained, monitored and improved over time. As your business changes, the software changes with it. You are never left with a dead end.

How do you price the work?

After a proper scoping conversation we give you a fixed price for a defined first phase, so there are no surprises. We would rather understand the problem properly than throw a number at you on the first call. Book a call and we will talk it through.
