Solution Showcase

What our solutions actually do

Not a gallery of logos. Each entry below states the problem the solution is built for, how we solve it, exactly what gets handed over, what it is designed to achieve, and what it runs on.

Straight answer first: the entries marked “Solution demonstration” describe systems we build, not jobs we have finished for a named customer. There are no client names, logos, testimonials, awards or performance statistics anywhere on this site, because we will not publish figures we cannot evidence. Ask us for references relevant to your project.

Every entry follows the same five steps

The showcase

Six solutions, start to finish

These are the systems we build most often. Read one as a specification: if your situation matches the problem, the deliverables list is roughly what you would receive.

01
Solution demonstration

Small & medium enterprise

SME Business Management Portal

A single internal system covering clients, jobs, invoicing and staff activity for a services business.

Illustrative interface sketch — not a screenshot of a live customer system.

1

Problem

Records are spread across spreadsheets and messaging apps, so nobody can say what work is outstanding or which invoices are unpaid without asking around.

2

Solution

One internal portal that holds clients, jobs, invoices and staff activity in the same place, with role-based permissions deciding who sees and changes what.

3

Deliverables

  • Client and contact register with activity history
  • Job and task tracking with assignment and status
  • Invoice generation and payment status tracking
  • Role-based access for owners, managers and staff
  • Management dashboard with outstanding work and receivables
4

Designed to achieve

Built so the owner can answer “what is outstanding and what is unpaid” from one screen, and so no job or invoice depends on one person’s spreadsheet.

Design intention, not a measured result. We publish no performance figures we cannot evidence.

Retail & consumer goods

E-commerce Platform

An online store with catalogue management, checkout, delivery options and order fulfilment tracking.

Illustrative interface sketch — not a screenshot of a live customer system.

1

Problem

Orders arrive over social media and phone, and stock levels and delivery status are tracked by hand in a notebook or a spreadsheet.

2

Solution

A storefront the merchant runs themselves — catalogue, stock, checkout and fulfilment in one place, with payments settling into the merchant’s own payment provider account rather than ours.

3

Deliverables

  • Product catalogue with variants, stock levels and pricing
  • Cart and checkout with delivery and pickup options
  • Order management, fulfilment status and customer notifications
  • Integration with the merchant’s own payment provider account
  • Sales and stock reporting
4

Designed to achieve

Built to let a business take and fulfil orders without re-keying anything, and to keep stock levels, order status and customer notifications in step automatically.

Design intention, not a measured result. We publish no performance figures we cannot evidence.

Professional & personal services

Customer Booking System

Online appointment booking with availability rules, confirmations and automated reminders.

Illustrative interface sketch — not a screenshot of a live customer system.

1

Problem

Appointments are arranged over phone and WhatsApp with no shared calendar, which produces double bookings and no-shows nobody saw coming.

2

Solution

A customer-facing booking flow driven by real availability rules instead of a shared inbox, with confirmations, reminders and cancellation policy handled by the system.

3

Deliverables

  • Service and staff availability configuration
  • Customer-facing booking flow with real-time availability
  • Confirmation and reminder notifications
  • Rescheduling and cancellation handling with policy rules
  • Staff calendar view and daily schedule
4

Designed to achieve

Built so a double booking is not possible to make in the first place, and so reminders go out without anyone having to chase a customer by hand.

Design intention, not a measured result. We publish no performance figures we cannot evidence.

Operations & back office

Automated Business Workflow

An approval and onboarding workflow replacing an email-and-spreadsheet process.

Illustrative interface sketch — not a screenshot of a live customer system.

1

Problem

Requests stall in inboxes, and there is no way to see who is holding an approval, how long it has been sitting there, or what was decided.

2

Solution

A structured intake and approval pipeline that routes every request, escalates it when it stalls, and records each action against a timestamp.

3

Deliverables

  • Structured intake forms with validation
  • Multi-step approval routing with escalation on delay
  • Document collection and checklist tracking
  • Automated notifications at each stage
  • Full audit trail of every action and timestamp
4

Designed to achieve

Built so the current owner of any request and how long it has been waiting is visible at a glance, and so every decision leaves a trail that can be audited later.

Design intention, not a measured result. We publish no performance figures we cannot evidence.

Infrastructure

Cloud Migration

Moving an on-premise application and database to cloud infrastructure with a tested rollback plan.

Illustrative interface sketch — not a screenshot of a live customer system.

1

Problem

An ageing office server holds the business, with no offsite backup and no capacity headroom — one hardware failure and everything stops.

2

Solution

A staged migration onto managed cloud infrastructure, with the backup, restore and rollback path proven before anything is cut over.

3

Deliverables

  • Inventory of applications, data and dependencies
  • Target architecture design with cost estimate
  • Staged migration with an agreed maintenance window
  • Automated backups with a verified restore test
  • Monitoring, alerting and runbook documentation
4

Designed to achieve

Built to remove the single point of failure sitting in the office, and to make recovery a procedure that has actually been tested rather than an assumption.

Design intention, not a measured result. We publish no performance figures we cannot evidence.

Systems integration

API Integration Platform

A middleware layer keeping a website, CRM and accounting system in step with one another.

Illustrative interface sketch — not a screenshot of a live customer system.

1

Problem

The same customer and transaction data is typed into three systems, and the figures in them drift apart until nobody trusts any of them.

2

Solution

A middleware layer that owns synchronisation between the systems, with explicit rules for retries, duplicates and conflicts, and a dashboard showing when a sync fails.

3

Deliverables

  • Documented REST API with authentication and versioning
  • Connectors for CRM and accounting systems
  • Retry, deduplication and conflict-resolution rules
  • Scheduled and event-driven synchronisation
  • Integration health dashboard and failure alerts
4

Designed to achieve

Built to end double entry between systems, and to make a failed synchronisation visible and replayable instead of silent.

Design intention, not a measured result. We publish no performance figures we cannot evidence.

Not on the list

Your problem probably isn’t one of these six

These are patterns, not a menu. Most of what we build is a combination — a store that also needs bookings, a portal that also has to talk to an accounting system. Describe the problem and we will tell you which parts apply.

What you get back from us

  • A written scope of what would be built
  • A fixed price, or a clear reason why it cannot be fixed
  • A delivery timeframe, and what we need from you to hit it
