Bespoke Software Development

The complexity of designing software, assembling the team, selecting suppliers, and launching the product is so great it can be overwhelming. Due to its complexity, the cost of bespoke software can be quite high.

But our people (we call them ‘Principals’) are experts in bespoke software projects. They know how to streamline the process and control costs.

Examples of bespoke software

For some clients, we oversee software that allows them to radically alter how they work internally. We’ve helped them reduce costs, improve cycle times, and transform customer service.

In other cases, we drive software projects that create entirely new revenue streams and differentiate our clients in crowded marketplaces.

A few, more specific example of bespoke software projects we develop:

• ‘Software bots’ that reduce the burden on customer service teams.
• Machine learning, which improves business performance from procurement to customer recommendation engines.
• Data analytics, which allows you to visualise information to improve decision-making and empower managers.

We are experienced business people who understand software

Many of our Principals are experts in software development for internal systems or for commercial product development.

We ensure the system strategy is clear and oversee the architecture and design decisions.

We recruit a team or find a development partner, ensure they follow engineering best practices, and oversee rigorous project management and testing.

In this way, we ensure an efficient process with manageable costs, and eliminate the possibility of a ‘stuck’ project.

We ensure that the software benefits your business

Our Principals will also, of course, oversee user engagement. We make changes to process and to the organisation when necessary.

For commercial products, we take part in discussions about pricing, partnerships, and other ‘go-to-market’ questions.

The key is not only to ensure that the software works—we ensure that people use it in the right way, so that your business enjoys its full benefits.
