Bespoke Software
Development Services

Software built around your organisation, your processes and the way you work.

New Icon designs and develops bespoke software for organisations across the UK. From new digital products and operational platforms to replacing systems that no longer meet your needs, we build software around the problem you need to solve.

Software built around your business

Off-the-shelf software can be a good choice when your requirements are straightforward and an existing product already does what you need.


But when your processes, data or systems are more complex, adapting your organisation around a standard product can create limitations.


Bespoke software is designed around the way your organisation actually works. It can connect with your existing systems, support specific processes and give you greater flexibility over how the software develops over time.


That doesn't mean building everything from scratch. We look at the technology you already have, the platforms and tools available, and where custom development will create the most value.

How a bespoke software project works

Every project is different, but we start in the same place: understanding the business problem before deciding what to build.

1.

Understand the opportunity

We work with your team to understand the problem, your users, existing systems and what needs to change. This gives everyone a clear view of the outcomes the project needs to deliver.

2.

Design and validate

Before committing to a full build, we can prototype the solution and test key assumptions. This helps define requirements, gather feedback and identify potential problems early.

3.

Build and integrate

Our software engineers turn the agreed solution into working software. We work iteratively, integrating with your existing systems and sharing progress throughout development rather than disappearing until launch.

Mobile plays an ever increasing role in business today. From allowing your customers to interact with your business and their data, through to managing your staff and back office operations. We integrate mobile solutions with our bespoke web-apps and also provide integration with third party systems.

Test and release

Testing takes place throughout development. As the software moves towards release, we make sure it works reliably for the people, processes and systems that depend on it.

We design and develop customer led controller apps for mobile, and the web-applications that manage and control these devices. Our expertise has allowed us to work with electronic firms and entrepreneurs to develop applications for innovative products. Do you have an IoT challenge for us?

Evolve

Software rarely stands still. After launch, we can continue to improve and extend the system as your users, technology and business requirements change.

Planning your software investment

The cost of bespoke software depends on what you need to build, the complexity involved and the level of discovery, design and development required.

A focused proof of concept or MVP will require a different investment from a complex operational platform or enterprise system.

Our discovery phase typically starts at around £20,000, while full software projects commonly range from £50,000 to £500,000+, depending on scope and complexity.

Read our software development cost guide for a more detailed breakdown of typical costs and what can affect your budget.
