WHEN OFF-THE-SHELF STOPS FITTING

Off-the-shelf software is the right answer for a lot of things. But the processes that make your organisation different are often exactly the ones a generic product handles worst. That's where time is lost, errors creep in, and growth starts to hurt.

Bespoke software is built around your process instead of forcing your process to fit the software. It can connect the tools you already use, automate the repetitive steps, and give you one reliable place for the information your business runs on.

Signs you might need bespoke software

  • Key processes live in spreadsheets that only one person really understands.
  • Staff retype the same information from one system into another.
  • You pay for an off-the-shelf product but work around it more than with it.
  • Paper, email and printouts hold together a process that should be automatic.
  • Your system has grown so slow or fragile that nobody wants to change it.

BESPOKE SOFTWARE WE HAVE BUILT

Over 240 projects for more than 120 clients, from Sheffield businesses to national organisations. A few examples:

ONLINE4BABY Courier and dispatch An in-house courier system with SMS-confirmed delivery scheduling, alongside picking systems for 1,000+ orders a day. TUC UNIONLEARN Funding management Tracked around £10m of government funding a year: bids, spend, evidence, outcomes and progress, with permissions for oversight. A ROYAL COLLEGE CPD and eLearning A rebuilt CPD platform where doctors record training and evidence for revalidation, keeping all of the existing data. FORENSIC TESTING SERVICES Business operations We helped design the system that runs the business, then helped hire the developer who took it in-house. We still provide an app used daily. SHEFFIELD CITY COUNCIL Youth enterprise scheme Technical partner for about 10 years on the Big Challenge, which a decade of Sheffield's school children took part in. WIKI SOLUTIONS Staff collaboration A moderated, semi-anonymous forum used by Age UK when Age Concern and Help the Aged merged, so staff could work together without status getting in the way.

SOFTWARE BUILT TO BE OWNED, NOT RENTED

Standard, well-known technology

We build with Laravel, the leading PHP framework, so your software is understood by developers everywhere and isn't tied to us.

Designed to grow

We solve the most pressing bottleneck first, stabilise it, then move to the next, so the system grows with the business rather than being thrown away.

Handover when you're ready

We have built systems and then helped clients hire and train in-house teams to own and manage them independently.

In addition to being highly skilled programmers, Artumi also contribute to the wider success of IT business process and propositions, often identifying both risks and opportunities that others may not.

WHERE TO START

Every project starts with understanding how the work is done today. Depending on where you are, that might be:

Systems MOT An independent review of your current systems, risks and costs. Technical brief A clear specification of what the software needs to do. Prototype See what the system could become before committing to the full build.
