Melbourne-based team
Built for Australian manufacturing & operations
Delivered with clear timelines and ownership
Built for teams who run on process, not generic platforms
If you're running operations with spreadsheets, email approvals, and workarounds because off-the-shelf software doesn't fit—you need something built to match your workflow.
Manufacturing teams tracking jobs, materials, approvals, and compliance through spreadsheets or disconnected tools
Operations managers coordinating quoting, scheduling, procurement, and reporting without a unified system
Engineering firms managing project data, calculations, and client deliverables across multiple platforms
Businesses with unique workflows that can't be configured into standard ERP, CRM, or project tools
The platforms and tools we deliver
Every bespoke build is scoped to your exact requirements. Here's what we commonly deliver for Australian operations teams.
Internal portals and dashboards
Centralised views of jobs, materials, quotes, and approvals—replacing spreadsheets and email chains.
Example: A manufacturing portal that shows job status, material availability, and pending approvals in real time.
Workflow automation and approvals
Automated routing, notifications, and approval chains that enforce your process without manual chasing.
Example: Quote approval workflows that route to the right person based on value, client type, and job complexity.
Custom reporting and analytics
Reports built for your KPIs—cost tracking, margin analysis, job turnaround, compliance summaries.
Example: Daily production reports that pull data from multiple sources and present it in one dashboard.
Client and supplier portals
Secure external access for clients or suppliers to submit requests, view progress, and download outputs.
Example: A client portal where customers log in to view project timelines, download drawings, and request changes.
Data integration and migration
Connect to your existing tools—ERP, accounting, CRM, inventory—or migrate legacy data into new systems.
Example: Two-way sync between your custom platform and Xero for invoicing and payment tracking.
Mobile and field tools
Mobile-friendly interfaces for field staff, inspectors, or delivery teams to log data on-site.
Example: A mobile inspection form that updates job records and triggers notifications when issues are logged.
Why build bespoke instead of buying off-the-shelf
You don't have to change your proven workflow to fit someone else's software assumptions.
You get exactly the features you need—no paying for bloat, no learning modules you'll never use.
Your system integrates with the tools you already use instead of forcing a full platform replacement.
You own the IP and control the roadmap—no vendor lock-in, no forced upgrades, no per-seat pricing traps.
How we deliver bespoke builds
We follow a structured process that keeps scope clear, timelines realistic, and delivery focused.
1
Discovery and scoping
We map your current workflow, identify pain points, define must-have features, and document technical requirements.
2
Design and approval
We design the user interface, data model, and system architecture—then walk you through it for sign-off before building.
3
Build and testing
We develop in sprints with regular check-ins, internal testing, and user acceptance testing with your team.
4
Deployment and training
We deploy to your environment (cloud or on-premise), migrate data if needed, and train your team on the new system.
5
Support and iteration
We provide post-launch support, bug fixes, and optional ongoing development for new features or workflow changes.
Choose the delivery model that fits your budget and timeline
Retained development
Ongoing development partnership—we allocate hours each month for new features, integrations, and improvements.
Best for: Businesses with evolving needs who want continuous platform enhancement.
Staged rollout
We break the build into phases—launch core functionality first, add features incrementally based on feedback.
Best for: Teams who want to start using the system quickly and refine as they go.
Fixed scope project
We scope, quote, and deliver to an agreed spec—fixed price, clear timeline, no surprises.
Best for: Businesses with well-defined requirements and a clear idea of what they need.
Built to integrate securely with your existing tools
We build bespoke platforms that connect to your ERP, accounting software, CRM, and other tools via APIs or scheduled data sync. Every system includes role-based access, audit trails, and the option to host in Australian data centres for compliance and performance.
API integrations with Xero, MYOB, SAP, Salesforce, and other enterprise tools
Data migration from spreadsheets, legacy databases, or retiring platforms
Role-based permissions to control who sees and edits what
Audit trails for compliance, tracking changes, and accountability
Australian hosting options (AWS Sydney, Azure Australia) for data sovereignty
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a bespoke build take?
It depends on scope—simple internal tools can launch in 8–12 weeks, while complex multi-user platforms with integrations typically take 4–6 months. We scope timelines during discovery and provide a delivery roadmap before starting. Staged rollouts can get you live faster with core features, then add functionality over time.
Do you replace spreadsheets or integrate with them?
Usually replace, but we can integrate if needed. Most clients come to us because spreadsheets have become too manual, error-prone, or hard to scale. We build systems that capture the same data but with automation, validation, and real-time reporting. If you need to keep using Excel for certain tasks, we can export data in spreadsheet format.
Can you integrate with our existing ERP/CRM/accounting tools?
Yes—we integrate with enterprise tools like Xero, MYOB, SAP, Salesforce, and others via APIs or scheduled data sync. During discovery, we assess your current systems and design integration points that avoid duplication and keep data flowing smoothly. If your tool doesn't have an API, we explore export/import workflows or database-level connections.
What happens after launch?
We offer post-launch support plans for bug fixes, user training, and minor adjustments during the settling-in period. After that, you can choose ongoing retained development (for new features and enhancements), pay-as-you-go support, or manage the system internally. We don't force long-term contracts—you decide what makes sense.
How do we start?
Book a consult or contact our sales team. We'll discuss your workflow, pain points, and goals, then scope whether bespoke makes sense or if another solution (like Modutus or Automata) is a better fit. If we proceed, we provide a proposal with timeline, cost, and delivery approach before any commitment.
