Domain specificity
Applications are designed around the real lifecycle of the work: the actual steps, states, and exceptions a team deals with daily, rather than a generic object model relabelled to suit.
AutomaTech Solutions Inc. is a software consulting company based in Calgary, Alberta. It helps small businesses and independent professionals bring custom software concepts to production. Applications are designed around each client's specific workflow rather than adapted from a generic template.
Enterprise software is built for large teams with large budgets. Generic SaaS was not built for your workflow at all. AutomaTech fills the gap.
Engineer on the project. The same person designs, builds, deploys, and maintains it.
Milestone demonstrations, held prior to alpha, prior to beta, and prior to final release.
Stages in the engagement process, followed on every project regardless of size.
Bug-fix window after delivery on Business Platform builds, retainer or not.
Every layer of the work, from architecture through to infrastructure, sits with the person you deal with directly.
Applications are designed around the real lifecycle of the work: the actual steps, states, and exceptions a team deals with daily, rather than a generic object model relabelled to suit.
The individual responsible for designing an application also handles deployment, testing, and ongoing infrastructure. This eliminates handoffs between separate teams.
Pricing is structured as either a flat fee scoped to the project or an hourly rate with an agreed cap. Open-ended billing is not used on any engagement.
Cloud infrastructure, computer networking, and full-stack development are handled in house, covering a wider technical surface than most independent operators can serve without subcontracting the work out.
No delivered system includes a killswitch or hidden dependency capable of disabling a client's instance, and the license to operate a delivered application does not depend on AutomaTech's continued operation.
The engagement begins with a structured discussion to define the application concept, intended scope, estimated user base, and other details required to plan the architecture.
Once scope is finalized, a written proposal is issued specifying either a flat fee or an hourly rate with an agreed cap. A signed contract is required before development begins.
Development proceeds with biweekly email updates provided on project progress, so the current state of the build is never in question.
Sessions held in person or remotely allow review and use of the application at key milestones: prior to alpha, prior to beta, and prior to final release.
Following launch, clients may self-host the application or engage AutomaTech for hosting, monitoring, and maintenance on a monthly fee basis.
Cancellable with 14 days' noticeEach line stands on its own and is built around the operational realities of the clients it serves.
End-to-end development of business-specific applications, from initial scoping through launch and ongoing maintenance. Primary experience is in web application development. Native mobile applications are achievable, though they typically require additional development time to reach the same standard.
