Two registered activities

One technology partner, two distinct disciplines

Building software and deciding what to build are different kinds of work. DEVNOVA keeps them clearly separated so that advice stays honest and delivery stays focused — and connects them when a project benefits from both.

SIC 62012 · Software Development

Designing and building software

Software products, applications, internal tools, connected platforms and digital workflows are designed and built around the way an organisation actually operates.

Operational platforms shaped by real processes
Customer and household-facing applications
Automation that removes repetitive manual steps
Connected portals drawing on compatible services

Software Development SIC 62020 · IT Consultancy

Evaluating, planning and advising

Consultancy engagements help organisations evaluate technology decisions, plan solutions, improve delivery and prepare a route for modernising existing systems.

Feasibility work before committing a budget
Architecture outlines and technology comparisons
Requirement clarity and delivery structure
Reviews of applications already in service

IT Consultancy

Consultancy can be booked on its own. Development can begin from a specification you already hold. Where a project benefits from both, the analysis feeds directly into what gets built — without a handover gap between two suppliers.

The capability map

Four categories. Eight services. One connected system.

Every DEVNOVA engagement belongs to one of four categories, and each category holds exactly two services. That structure keeps proposals easy to compare, keeps scope honest, and makes it obvious where a piece of work sits before anything is agreed.

Two categories deliver software. Two categories deliver analysis and advice. Projects frequently start in one and continue in another.

62012 — Software development. Product engineering, automation and connected platforms.

62020 — IT consultancy. Direction, architecture, delivery advice and modernisation.

Pricing notice. All prices are indicative starting points. Final pricing depends on project scope, complexity, integrations, documentation, timescale and agreed deliverables. Applicable taxes and third-party costs are confirmed in the written proposal where relevant.

From idea to system

How a business requirement becomes working software

The same six stages apply to development projects and consultancy engagements. Some engagements use every stage; shorter pieces of work use only the stages that carry value.

A single requirement point expanding through widening orbital arcs into an ordered arrangement of connected software modules.

Stage 01

Discover

Understanding the process, the people using it and the problem worth solving.

Stage 02

Define

Turning observations into written requirements, priorities and success criteria.

Stage 03

Architect

Deciding structure, data flow, integrations and the technical approach.

Stage 04

Build or Advise

Development in reviewable increments, or the written analysis a decision needs.

Stage 05

Validate

Testing against the agreed criteria, with a review period before acceptance.

Stage 06

Improve

Handover, documentation and an agreed route for changes after delivery.

Illustrative scenarios

Where DEVNOVA Can Add Value

These examples illustrate possible project types and are not presented as completed client case studies. They exist to show how a requirement is framed, what the first step usually is and which service would apply.

Illustrative scenario 01

Replacing spreadsheet-based operations

A growing operations team runs quotations, job status and customer history across several shared spreadsheets. Version conflicts are frequent and nobody is certain which file is current.

Likely first step: A short discovery covering how records move between people today, and which parts genuinely need structure.
Service that would apply: Business Operations Platform Development

Illustrative scenario 02

Planning a new customer portal

A service business wants customers to view their own records and submit requests, but the internal team disagrees on scope and no budget has been approved.

Likely first step: A feasibility engagement to establish what is realistic, what it depends on and what a phased build would involve.
Service that would apply: Digital Roadmap & Feasibility Consulting

Illustrative scenario 03

Connecting disconnected business systems

Order data sits in one system, invoicing in another and customer communication in a third. Staff re-enter the same information several times each day.

Likely first step: An assessment of which systems expose usable interfaces, what the provider terms permit and where synchronisation is safe.
Service that would apply: API-Connected Portals & Data Hubs

Illustrative scenario 04

Modernising an ageing internal application

An internal tool built years ago still works, but changes take a long time, the interface confuses new staff and nobody remembers how parts of it were built.

Likely first step: A structured review of usability, maintainability and operational risk, followed by phased modernisation options.
Service that would apply: Application Review & Modernisation Strategy

Working principles

Six commitments that shape every engagement

Principle 01

Real requirements before features

Feature lists are easy to write and expensive to build. Work starts with the process, the people and the problem — the feature list follows from that.

Principle 02

Clear scope before development

Scope, deliverables and price are confirmed in a written proposal before development begins, so both sides know what completion looks like.

Principle 03

Maintainable solutions

Software is written to be changed later. Structure, naming and documentation are treated as part of the deliverable rather than an optional extra.

Principle 04

Direct communication

One point of contact, plain explanations and no jargon used to obscure a trade-off. Questions receive a straight answer, including when the answer is no.

Principle 05

Practical technology choices

Technology is chosen for the problem, the budget and the people who will maintain it — not because a particular stack is fashionable this year.

Principle 06

Support beyond initial delivery

Handover includes documentation and an agreed route for future changes, so the solution remains usable after the project closes.

Start a conversation

Describe the problem. Not the solution.

Send a short description of the process, product or decision you are working on. You will receive an honest view of whether it is a development project, a consultancy engagement, or something that does not need software at all.
