Existing systems · Cloud · Database · Web applications

We keep the business systems you rely on running, and make them better.

Support, fixes, new features and gradual modernisation for existing systems built on Microsoft technologies. And when a new system really is the right answer, we build that too.

With over twenty years' experience we understand the systems developed over the past two or three decades: the technologies they were built with, and the way people actually use them. Find out why it can pay to keep and adapt the system you already have.

Existing system support

The system does the job. The worry is everything around it.

The developer has gone. One person understands it. It runs on a server in a cupboard. It can't do the next thing you need. If any of that sounds familiar, you don't necessarily need a new system; you need someone to take responsibility for the one you have.

Take it on and stabilise it.

We establish what you actually have, document it, and fix the things that have been quietly tolerated because there was nobody to ask.

Add what's missing, move it to the cloud.

New reports, new screens, integrations with your accounts or CRM, and a move to Microsoft Azure that often needs configuration rather than a rewrite.

Modernise in stages.

When parts genuinely need replacing we replace them one at a time, around the data and habits you already have, so the business never stops.

What we do

A small team, with many talents.

From keeping an existing system in service to building a new one from scratch, we cover the technologies a data-driven organisation needs.

i.

Existing system support

Support, fixes and modernisation for the systems you already run, on-premises or in the cloud. Cloud is rarely a clean slate and we work pragmatically with what is there.

ii.

Cloud applications

Web platforms built on Microsoft Azure and .NET, for performance, security and the ability to grow with your organisation.

iii.

Database design

Relational schemas built around how the business operates, from prototype through to long-running production systems.

iv.

Bespoke web apps

Workflow tools, line-of-business systems and intranets fitted to the way your organisation works.

v.

Mobile applications

Consumer mobile apps under our MemoLeap brand, plus mobile companion apps for our enterprise products.

vi.

Long-term partnership

The software we build for clients is still running — and being improved — many years after launch.

Our products

Three areas we know well.

Whether it's a national construction contractor or a parent helping a child revise, the principle is the same: build software that's easy to use and just keeps working.

Construction

A management system built around the site, not the spreadsheet.

The Apsis system, which we design and develop for Apsis Business Components, brings projects, sub-contractors, plant, costs and compliance into a single cloud platform. Field-tested with real UK contractors and refined continuously since launch.

  • Live cost and progress reporting
  • Sub-contractor and supplier management
  • Mobile-friendly site reporting
  • Continuous earned value analysis

About us

Established in 2004. Still here, still improving.

We're a small team in Canary Wharf with deep experience. We pick up the phone, we know our codebases, and we've stayed close enough to our products to keep refining them year after year.

i.

Microsoft, used pragmatically

We've worked across the Microsoft stack since the beginning — on-premises and in the cloud — and we know when to use what.

ii.

A 'can-do' reputation

Clients and partners have viewed us this way for two decades. We aim to keep earning it on every project.

iii.

Built for longevity

Our oldest client systems have been running and evolving for well over a decade. Software that lasts is software designed with care from day one.

iv.

Reachable, accountable, in London

You'll talk to the people who built and maintain your system. No layers, no offshoring, no mystery.
