Bespoke business apps
Build, buy or configure? We’re here to help!
Choosing the best fit
Not every team needs bespoke apps. But not every off-the-shelf tool will work either. The right choice depends on three things: budget, timing and what the apps actually need to do.
We’ll help you figure that out. If a ready-made system can be adapted, we’ll say so. If building new makes more sense, we’ll help plan it carefully. And if something in between fits – like integrating tools you already use – we’ll make sure it works day to day.
Whatever route you take, we’ll guide you through it with a clear plan.

The outcome
You end up with business apps that actually supports how your organisation runs – whether it’s bespoke, customised or off-the-shelf.
We help you figure out what makes sense, then build or configure a solution that fits.
No more patchwork tools or clunky systems that slow everything down.
Your team gets a setup they can rely on – and apps that scale with the work, not against it.
What we do when bespoke apps might be the answer
We start by working out whether bespoke apps are actually the right route. That means understanding how your teams work, where standard tools fall short, and what success looks like for your organisation.
We’ll sit down with you and your teams – ideally in person – to unpack what’s blocking progress and why. Through workshops with operational staff and decision-makers, we identify what needs to change.
In some cases, that means integrating and configuring what you already have to extend its life. In others, it’s about designing something custom – but only when it’s justified. Not every organisation wants to become a app company by accident. Long-term cost, support and ownership all need to be part of the conversation.
We’ve built hybrid solutions that bridge the gap between rigid off-the-shelf products and full custom platforms. The right option is the one that fits in the long run – not the one that looks impressive in a slide deck.
Who we work with
We work with heads of operations, service delivery leads and digital managers – often those who’ve outgrown off-the-shelf apps but don’t want to build something massive from scratch.
That includes organisations across:
- charities and non-profits
- public sector teams
- manufacturing and supply chain
- commercial services
- membership bodies
Some come to us with a clear idea of what they want. Others just know that their current setup isn’t working. Either way, we help translate need into a clear plan, based on what’s realistic and sustainable.
Not just advice – practical delivery and support
Bespoke builds only work when the follow-through is solid. We don’t disappear after a spec document – we help you shape, build, test and support the system for the long haul.
That might include building an app from scratch, extending an existing platform, or stitching together several tools into one working setup. We bring in the right mix of strategy, development and support to make it happen – and keep it working.
