Custom software for the way you actually work.
Spreadsheets, paper, email chains and WhatsApp, replaced by one system your team actually uses. Less admin, fewer errors, and a clear view of what is happening in your business right now.

-
The same information gets typed into three different systems.

-
One person understands the spreadsheet, and everyone hopes they never resign.
-
The old system still runs, but the developer who built it is long gone.
-
You only find out how the month went once month-end is over.
None of this is a people problem. It is a systems problem, and systems can be fixed.
What we do
Four ways we take the manual work out of your business
Most projects use more than one of these. We start with the problem, then pick the right mix.
-
Custom software
Web apps, field tools, client portals and dashboards built around how your business actually works.
-
Process automation
Take the repetitive capture, approvals, reports and reminders off your team's plate.
-
Systems integration
Connect your accounting, CRM, online store and spreadsheets so data is captured once and flows everywhere.
-
Legacy modernisation
Move ageing desktop software and old databases to a modern cloud system without losing your history.
How it works
From messy process to working system, in four steps
-
Understand the process
We sit with the people who do the work and map how it really happens, including the workarounds nobody wrote down.
-
Design the fix
We agree what the system must do, what it replaces and what success looks like, before any code is written.
-
Build and roll out
We build in short phases, so your team uses working software early and shapes it as we go.
-
Support and improve
Once it is live, we keep it running, fix what needs fixing and add the next improvement when you are ready.
What we build
The kinds of systems we build for businesses like yours
Every business is different, but the building blocks are familiar. Here is what we are regularly asked to build.
-
Client portals
Customers check orders, documents and progress themselves.
-
Job, quote and invoice workflows
Enquiry to quote to job card to invoice, typed once.
-
Booking systems
Bookings and reminders that fit how you work.
-
Internal dashboards
Your daily numbers, live, on one screen.
-
Field data-capture apps
Phone forms that still work on patchy signal.
-
Automated reporting
Weekly reports built and sent automatically.
-
Approval workflows
Requests routed, reminded and recorded.
-
Integrations between your tools
Your tools connected, data captured once.
Why FOXSAKES
Three things we always stand for
-
Built for the people doing the work
Phone, field, shop floor, patchy signal. Our systems are simple enough that your staff actually use them, not just the people in the office.
-
Fits how your business actually runs
We replace spreadsheets, paper, email chains and outdated software with systems shaped around your process, not the other way round. Whatever your industry.
-
Practical, phased delivery
We build in short phases, with working software at each step. It keeps every step manageable, so SMEs get proper custom software at a cost that used to be out of reach.
We sit with the people who do the work, map how it really happens and build the system around it, so the software fits your business instead of your business bending to fit the software.
