Custom software

Your work, your software.

Not every organisation fits a ready-made product. We also build software to order, shaped around how your people really work.

Management systems
Software shaped around how your organisation records, approves and reports its work.
Web and mobile apps
Tools for your staff, members or customers, on the web and on their phones.
Portals and dashboards
One place for people to see what matters to them, in place of scattered files.
Connecting your systems
Link the tools you already use, so the same work isn't typed in twice.

The engine

Built once. Done properly.

Our web products are built on one shared core. Security, permissions and reporting are solved a single time, so a fix in one product reaches the others.

Cloud or on site
Run it online for many branches or schools, or install it for a single organisation. Where organisations share a platform, each one's data is kept apart.
Permissions
Every action sits behind a permission. Owners decide who can see the books, approve a loan or change a mark.
Audit trail
Who did what, and when, is recorded for every change, so mistakes are found quickly and trust is easy to show.
Reports
Daily, termly and yearly reports export to Excel and PDF, ready for the board, the bursar or the auditor.
