Grow your business with bespoke software

Many businesses grow in during the early years when the owner(s) can personally manage every detail, but as the volume of business continues to grow, there comes a time when no matter how many hours one works it becomes impossible to maintain the ‘grip’ on the business processes as it once was. In these cases, the process that was once strong and refined becomes weaker, with other staff members making day to day decisions that were once the sole domain of the owner.

Bespoke software can help in many ways; By building the software to respect the processes developed by the owner, the software can manage the process without direct day to day input from the owner. Information, important in maintaining the business can be presented in the form best suited to the owner to allow them to ‘keep an eye on things’ and the inevitable errors that occur as more people get involved are significantly reduced as the bespoke software has validation checks built in.

Why do I need bespoke business software

A problem common to most owner/managers is one of not seeing the obvious, largely due to familiarity. One way to see if your business software is fit for purpose is to look at the number of spreadsheets in use, particularly those that are used and updated regularly.

Ask yourself:

• Does the business rely on these spreadsheets?
• Does the business make decisions based on these spreadsheets?
• Are these spreadsheets looked after by an individual?
• If so, what happens if/when that individual leaves or is sick?

Spreadsheets are invaluable for one-off analysis or financial modelling tasks, but not appropriate for routine information collection and/or analysis; they are time consuming, error prone, key staff dependant and difficult to maintain – all reasons to look at adding some bespoke software into your business processes.

Support contracts renewed for 2012

Two of our clients, the MOD and Tarmac, have both renewed their software support contracts for a further year.

Triangle have been writing bespoke software for the MOD for over 15 years, and the current systems have had a dramatic impact on productivity and efficiency.

We have been working with Tarmac for the last 6 years or so and have developed a number of applications, ranging from very specific niche technical solutions, to an enterprise wide KPI target monitoring system, used by staff at all levels from clerks to the CEO.

We are pleased to be  working with these two household names for the next 12 months.
