Bugloos

Bugloos has spent more than fifteen years making custom web solutions, shaping each system to match how a client actually operates. Besides building systems, it supplies developers who work alongside clients' staff for extended periods and offers advice on digital change, so that companies can replace patchwork processes with software that fits their needs.

A one-month project discovery before any build

The company's project discovery programme is a short, intensive piece of work that turns an idea into a clear and feasible plan within one month. Its benefits, as the firm sets them out, include a clearer development roadmap, more control over development costs, insight into the business case for the web application, and quicker results from an agreed schedule. The programme also lets both sides check whether the project is feasible before taking on any long-term commitment.

Custom ERP, CRM and management systems

The firm designs software that fits the way a business truly works. Its bespoke systems include enterprise resource planning, customer relationship management and management systems, and it also automates end-to-end business processes and improves data flow so that teams work more efficiently. The firm says that standardised online applications often fail to automate what a company needs, which is why it starts from the client's processes.

Long-term IT teams and product support

Under its IT outsourcing service, the company supplies teams that work as an extension of the client's own staff, using continuous integration and quality assurance and providing full-cycle product support and maintenance. Its consultancy analyses existing systems, identifies inefficiencies and outlines a path to improvement, covering technology and efficiency audits, automation planning and cost reviews.

Weekly demos and a dedicated project manager

Each project is given a dedicated project manager who works only on that project. Progress is reported through weekly reports and visual demos, and the team discusses and visualises the idea with the client so that the goal and expectations are clear. The company works in agile sprints, broken into defined epics, and it structures its delivery through steps that run from preparation to launch and a service level agreement.
