Advanced manufacturing and engineering
Manufacturers across Worcester and the county want job costing, production scheduling and customer portals that sit alongside their ERP, plus quoting tools that do not depend on one experienced estimator.
West Midlands
Worcester made porcelain for more than two and a half centuries, and the county around it now makes engineered products and secures networks. We design and build websites, web applications and business software for Worcester manufacturers, technology firms, healthcare providers and visitor attractions, and we deliver every project remotely in clear, approved stages.
Local context
Worcester porcelain was manufactured in the city from 1751 until 2008, and the Museum of Royal Worcester now holds the largest collection of it in the world on the site where it was made. Worcester Cathedral contains the tombs of King John and of Prince Arthur, son of Henry VII, and runs a busy calendar of concerts and educational visits. The University of Worcester describes the city as a cathedral city in the heart of the English countryside, and its Three Counties Medical School is training future doctors for the area.
Worcestershire County Council names advanced manufacturing as a key strength of the county economy, with a larger share of local employment in advanced manufacturing and engineering than across England as a whole. Cyber security and IT form the other headline sector: the council lists strengths in cyber resilience and defence, cloud and network infrastructure, identity management and low-code development, supported by the University of Worcester's Cyber Lab and by Malvern Hills Science Park, home to the BetaDen tech accelerator and a government-funded 5G testbed.
For growing firms, Worcester Six is a new business park just off the M5, close to the city centre and to Worcestershire Parkway station, with direct rail links towards Birmingham and London. That combination of a historic city, a strong manufacturing base and a cyber cluster on the doorstep shapes the software Worcester businesses need: secure, well-documented systems for industry, and polished booking and retail experiences for the visitors the city attracts.
Sectors
Manufacturers across Worcester and the county want job costing, production scheduling and customer portals that sit alongside their ERP, plus quoting tools that do not depend on one experienced estimator.
Security consultancies and managed service providers need client dashboards, ticketing, evidence collection for audits and marketing sites that explain technical services to non-specialist buyers. We follow secure coding and least-privilege principles throughout.
With a new medical school and a university nearby, clinics, care providers and training organisations need appointment booking, course enrolment and secure records that respect data protection.
Museums, the cathedral, festivals and city-centre venues want online ticketing, workshop booking, venue hire enquiries and shops for gifts and collectables.
Colleges, apprenticeship providers and private trainers ask for learner portals, enrolment forms and progress tracking that employers and learners can both see.
Common requests
These requests follow directly from the mix of industry, technology and heritage in and around the city.
Customers track orders, download drawings and certificates and raise queries, with every exchange recorded against the job.
Clients see tickets, service levels and security reports in one place, with access separated so each sees only their own data.
Short courses, apprenticeships and CPD sessions booked and paid for online, with joining instructions and certificates sent automatically.
Timed entry, events, private hire enquiries and gift memberships handled on the venue's own website.
An online shop with condition notes, provenance details and careful shipping for vintage and contemporary porcelain.
Services
For Worcester manufacturers, technology firms and attractions we build clear, accessible websites that explain complex services simply and make the next step obvious, whether that is a quote, a booking or a purchase.
We build quoting, scheduling, client portal and compliance systems for Worcester organisations whose processes have outgrown spreadsheets and email.
Engineers, carers and venue staff can use the same installable web app on phones, tablets and desktops, with secure sign-in and updates delivered centrally.
Founders coming through the county's accelerator and cyber community can launch a focused subscription product with accounts, billing and an admin console, built to be secure from the outset.
We build shops for makers, retailers and heritage organisations, including collectables with detailed descriptions and delivery options suited to fragile goods.
We connect ERP, CRM, ticketing, learning and accounting platforms so records stay consistent without manual re-entry.
How we work
Projects for Worcester organisations run over video calls and through a client panel that holds the proposal, designs, test links, decisions and invoices. Reviews are scheduled around production runs, clinic sessions or event days, and anyone in your team can catch up on the record afterwards.
Nothing is built until you accept a written proposal setting out the scope, milestones and price. Security-conscious clients can review our approach to access control, data handling and logging in writing before the build begins.
A video call to understand the business, the people who will use the software and what has to change.
Scope, milestones and price in writing. Nothing starts until you accept it.
Each milestone is reviewed with you; progress, files and decisions stay in your client panel.
Go-live when you are ready, then maintenance and hosting if you want them.
