Messy platforms
Cloud estates, infrastructure and applications that technically work, but are too slow, fragile or unclear to support the business properly.
We fix messy platforms, modernise cloud and infrastructure, automate the painful bits and build software people actually use. Strategy, programme leadership and delivery, joined up properly.
We are the people you call when the roadmap is blocked, the platform is creaking, the last migration left a few surprises behind, or every useful process still lives in someone's spreadsheet.
Cloud estates, infrastructure and applications that technically work, but are too slow, fragile or unclear to support the business properly.
Teams waiting on environments, releases, approvals or manual work that should have been automated a long time ago.
Useful tools joined by exports, inboxes and hope. We connect systems properly so the operation can breathe again.
We care about strategy. We care about programme delivery and management too. We just think both should earn their keep: clearer decisions, fewer surprises and work that actually ships.
Move workloads with a clear plan, visible risk and a platform your team can trust after the migration is finished.
Build delivery pipelines, environments and platform patterns that help teams release calmly and recover quickly.
Turn manual infrastructure work into repeatable, documented automation that reduces drift and keeps operations tidy.
Design, build and improve business applications that solve the real workflow, not just the prettiest part of it.
Shape, build and operate SaaS platforms with sensible architecture, clean delivery habits and a firm grip on scope.
Connect platforms, data and processes so teams stop re-keying information and start trusting the view in front of them.
Modernise how work gets done without burying the business in workshops, jargon or expensive uncertainty.
Bring in experienced leadership to steady a programme, unblock decisions and help internal teams deliver with confidence.
We understand delivery pressure, legacy constraints, budget reality and the fact that your team still has a business to run while the platform changes.
Some consultancies leave you with a deck. We prefer leaving you with working systems, cleaner platforms and fewer problems.
We have worked across defence, UK central government, critical national infrastructure and highly secure, SECRET-rated environments. The martini stayed at home; the governance, audit trails and controlled access came with us.
We look at the systems, people, constraints and commercial priorities before prescribing the work.
If something is risky or blocking progress, we make it visible and get it under control quickly.
Cloud, automation, applications, integrations or platforms: we ship the work with a bias for maintainable systems.
Documentation, handover and sensible operating patterns matter. We like boring reliability and fewer surprises.
When we keep seeing the same gap, we tend to build the thing we wish existed. SmartGig and SmartCellar are our own SaaS products: practical tools for workflows that deserved better than another spreadsheet and a heroic inbox.
SmartGig helps organisers manage applications, compliance, communications, payments and logistics in one place.
For: event organisers and operations teams.
