Platform & CMS

Underpinning all the solutions we deliver is our own platform.  It is itself build upon another platform - an open source, lightweight and rapid-development CMS platform called Piranha.  It is a brilliant example of how to engineer and run such a project, and we are active contributors to the project ourselves.

But because of the complexity and exacting requirements of the systems we build, we have extended the platform to both best suit our preferred development methodologies and have added a rapid-development pure data handling and administration platform.  This allows a separation of concerns between the heavyweight display only data and the lightweight operational data, allowing easy creation of both while avoiding the pitfalls of only having one of them.

This dual approach allows us to produce highly elegant solutions in a fraction of the time, while still maintaining best-in-class speed.

In addition, because we have such a degree of understanding & control over every aspect of the solutions we deliver, we can extend or change them to meet the demands of each project, no matter how high a bar those demands set.
