Custom Software & Enterprise Application Development

What we build

We build robust enterprise applications that streamline business operations, improve collaboration and support long-term growth. Every system is designed around your workflows and integrates with the software you already run.

From planning and architecture to deployment and ongoing support, we deliver enterprise-grade applications that improve productivity, drive innovation and adapt as your business needs change.

• Custom business applications that replace spreadsheets, manual steps and ageing off-the-shelf tools.
• Enterprise systems for operations, finance, logistics and customer management, with the security and audit trails they need.
• Integrations and APIs that connect your applications, databases and third-party platforms.
• Modernization of existing systems, including Progress OpenEdge, .NET and Java applications, step by step rather than in one risky rewrite.
• Data platforms and reporting on relational and big data databases.

From brief to launch

For new products, our squads compress the usual plan-build-test cycle into a few overlapping stages. For a well-scoped product, this approach can take a launch from months to weeks.

• Co-creation: you and our product architect turn a written brief into architecture, data models, wireframes and a first risk assessment.
• Prototype and validate: a working MVP, including back end, APIs and tests, goes in front of real users within days.
• Build and refine: short loops of building, reviewing and refining, with automated regression testing throughout.
• Quality and security: every change is scanned and tested automatically, so people can focus on the high-risk logic.
• Release and learn: gradual rollouts to small groups of users, with production telemetry feeding the next iteration.

How we deliver

We run small, senior-led squads: a product architect who owns the technical decisions, engineers who build with AI-assisted tools, a quality engineer and shared DevOps and UX support. The squad works from a written brief, ships a working MVP early, and then iterates on real feedback rather than a fixed plan.

AI tools handle the routine work, such as boilerplate, first drafts, refactors and test scaffolding. That leaves engineers to focus on what matters to your business. Adopting GitHub Copilot across our day-to-day development made implementation roughly 60% faster, with more consistent code.

Engagement models

Pick the model that fits your budget, timeline and how much you want to manage day to day. You can start with one and move to another as the work changes.

• Staff augmentation: individual engineers join your team, work in your tools and ceremonies, and report to your leads.
• Dedicated team: a stable squad that we build around your roadmap, with a Five Frogs lead responsible for delivery and quality.
• Fixed-scope project: an agreed scope, timeline and price for well-defined work such as a module, migration or MVP.
