The Problem Assessment How We Work Outcomes Get Started → Software Strategy Session
Since 2007 · Birmingham, Alabama

Software built around how your
business actually works.

Off-the-shelf tools almost fit. Almost is expensive. We build web applications, internal tools, and core business systems tailored to your workflows, data, and operational reality.

Built to Your SpecificationsDesigned around your processes. Not generic feature lists.
Owned by Your OrganizationYou control the code, infrastructure, and roadmap.
Integrated With Your SystemsConnected to the tools and data you already rely on.
The Real Problem

Most teams are bending their process to match their software.

When software shapes your process instead of supporting it, friction compounds.

"If your team says, 'We have to work around the system,' the system needs to change."

You may be:

SaaS Stack Gaps

Stacking SaaS tools that do 70% of what you need.

Spreadsheet Workarounds

Maintaining spreadsheets to fill feature gaps.

Subscription Overhead

Paying subscription fees for workflows that are core to your business.

Vendor Roadmap Lock-In

Locked into a vendor roadmap that does not prioritize your reality.

The Assessment

We understand how your workflows actually operate before writing a line of code.

Five focus areas. Real operations. No assumptions.

01

Core business workflows

The steps that generate revenue, manage risk, or serve customers.

02

Data dependencies

Where information enters, transforms, and drives decisions.

03

Existing system constraints

What must integrate, what must be replaced, what must remain stable.

04

User roles and permissions

Who does what. Who approves what. Who sees what.

05

Long-term ownership requirements

Scalability, flexibility, and total cost of ownership. We design around operational leverage, not feature checklists.

What We Deliver

Three capabilities. One system aligned to your business.

Clarity for leadership. Efficiency for your team.

  • Reporting layer aligned to your data platform
  • Secure authentication and access control

If software is core to your operations, you should control it. You pay for clarity — not a predetermined answer.

What You Leave With

not the other way around.

Typical Outcomes

Replace multiple SaaS subscriptions with one owned platform.

Less friction. More visibility. Software that evolves with your business instead of constraining it.

Replace SaaS Subscriptions

Replace multiple SaaS tools with one unified platform you own. Eliminate ongoing subscription fees for workflows that are core to your business.

Typical Outcome

2–3 SaaS subscriptions replaced with a single owned system.

Eliminate Manual Overhead

Reduce manual handoffs and duplicate data entry. Increase visibility into operational performance across your organization.

Typical Outcome

Fewer handoffs. Cleaner data. Less time spent on workarounds.

Software That Evolves

Faster iteration on features aligned to your strategy. Software that grows with your business instead of constraining it.

Typical Outcome

Zero feature requests waiting on a vendor roadmap.
