What Makes Us Different?
We are UK based and you can talk directly to our developers. There is no helpdesk or sales function meaning you get timely decisions and solutions. We offer both online and face to face meetings; our customers are always welcome at our Milton Keynes office.
Each project has a lead consultant responsible for producing the solution exactly as you require, and you can speak directly to them for any reason.
All our work is carried out by our team in Milton Keynes. We do not outsource any work, overseas or otherwise making it easy for you to contact us and keep up to speed on your project.
You only pay for the work we do – there are no retainers or payments upfront helping you manage your budget.
You own the intellectual property of any work we do for you and once the project is complete there are no extra fees. We will of course provide any adjustments, updates etc. you desire as a separate project.
We provide solutions to many different industries and sizes of company, from startups to established businesses making us flexible to your needs.
We take great pride in our work and are delighted with the feedback we have received from our customers.
View Case StudiesHow We Work
For each project, we firstly discuss your requirements at a top level and feedback a short summary of our understanding along with our recommendations, all of which is free of charge. This will also include our initial expectations as to the size and likely cost of the overall project.
We assign a consultant, who discusses in detail your project. This is the requirement capture stage and typically takes between 2 days to 2 weeks depending on the complexity of the project. From this a requirement capture document is produced for you to give feedback and make any changes needed. Once agreed this document is the foundation to provide you with a formal project cost and timeframe.
Once this is signed off, it’s all systems go as we get started on your project. We provide feedback meetings every 2 to 3 weeks where we demonstrate progress. Any changes identified in these meetings can be fed back into the project so that the project delivers an ideal solution – often requirements are only evident once a prototype can be seen and tried.
Once complete, we deliver the end product to you for testing and continue to do changes as required. Following ‘go live’ we are here to provide ongoing support and upgrades as you need.
We operate transparent fees; every minute is accounted for and you are only charged for the work we do. There are no upfront costs, billing is monthly for work completed.

Why We Are The Best Option
We are a small, capable software business consultancy offering flexibility and timely solutions. We have the resources to manage your project and the advantage of being small enough that your work is important to us.
- Do you have enough on-going work to justify hiring someone full time?
- Are they going to be ongoing overheads?
- How do you find the right person?
- What are the recruitment costs?
Hiring the best talent is an extremely time-consuming and challenging process. Do you have the skills to measures capability? We have evolved a recruitment methodology which ensures we hire the best staff available.
- How can you communicate effectively with the developers, overcoming language barriers and time zone issues?
- How will you know they will understand your needs?
- How can you check that they have the right skills for the job?
Being UK based, there are no language or time zone barriers when communicating with our consultants. You can meet them face to face and see demonstrations of our work during the project giving you confidence that the project is moving in the right direction.
- How do you know you’ve hired a good one?
- What happens when they move onto the next job? Will they still support you?
- Who looks after the project if they change roles?
Our biggest asset is our staff – we put a lot of care and time into finding and selecting the right people. We look after our staff and our retention is excellent. Your projects are thoroughly documented and shared between different consultants, so you are well looked after in our company.
- Is your business important enough for them to take it seriously?
- Will the people you’re talking to in pre-sales be the people who actually work on it?
- Will they simply outsource the work?
- Day rates tend to be high.
We have no sales, pre-sales, or helpdesk function – the consultant you talk to will be the person responsible for implementing your project. Our day rates are typically half that of large companies and broadly similar to hiring a freelance consultant.
