What we do

The whole point of the creation of databases are that they provide your business with purpose built solutions to your problems. We would consult with your current IT department, look at your current infrastructure, and then make suggestions in providing a total package combining your current situation with the new bespoke database.

The majority of the databases we write are use Microsoft SQL using a commissioned written frontend. We can integrate the reports into your current applications or create bespoke applications to output the information.

We have many years of experience in software development and understand that without a full understanding of your business model we cannot truly offer you a solution to your needs. We pride ourselves in offering solutions we can be delivered on time and within budget.


Typical project outline

• The Initial consultation (FREE). We can then grasp your business and what needs to be done. We won't try to sell you something you don't need and aren't afraid to say no to a project unless it's going to be a benefit to you.
• If the project is a little more complex we would look at setting up another meeting to answer a few more questions (once again FREE)
• System requirement and specification to be posted out to you. Price estimate, software need and timescale of the project will be included.
• Upon agreement – You will be posted out a job specification for you to sign. This will outline what will happen and what we need from you to complete the project.
• Development of Database
• First version to be displayed to client with feedback
• Onsite testing
• Deployment of system with onsite support (for a period of time – depending on complexity)
• Project sign off.
• Support and advice can be included if needed (this is usually priced separately and can be discussed at the initial stages of the project)
