Systems of record

eCommerce platforms

Shopify, BigCommerce, Adobe Commerce, Salesforce Commerce.

Four storefront platforms, and the choice is mostly about how much of the shop you want to own. Hosted and opinionated at one end, open and yours to maintain at the other.

What we build on

Four, and what each is for

  • Shopify

    Hosted and fast to launch. The default unless something specific rules it out, and the ceiling is higher than people expect once the ERP is wired in.

  • BigCommerce

    Hosted, with more of the B2B mechanics built in rather than added. Worth a look when price lists and account hierarchies are the hard part.

  • Adobe Commerce

    Open and deeply customisable, and correspondingly yours to run. Earns its keep on complex catalogues and multi-store estates.

  • Salesforce Commerce

    Enterprise scale, and the natural fit where Salesforce already holds the customer.

What we do with them

Build, replatform, integrate, optimise

  • New builds
  • Replatforms that keep the catalogue and the URLs
  • ERP, POS, marketplace and 3PL integration
  • B2B pricing and account structures
  • Search and checkout work
  • Support after launch

How we work

Discovery, design, build, run

  1. Discovery

    We look at what you actually have, and what has to still be true afterwards. There is no meter running on discussion time here. You get as many sessions as it takes to understand what is being built and why.

  2. Design

    Written down before anything is built. Scope, the shape of the solution, and the things we have agreed not to do.

  3. Build

    In the open, against real data, in increments you can look at. Nothing arrives as a surprise at the end.

  4. Run

    Live, then supported. Monitored, maintained, and extended as the business changes.

Engagement

How this gets bought

Four ways

Fixed price, time and materials, retainer, or managed service. There is no minimum engagement size, so a single integration is a real conversation and not a rounding error.

What you are paying for

Senior people on the actual work, not a pyramid with one architect and fifteen juniors. Large firms charge a premium that has more to do with their overhead than with the quality of the delivery. The same work can be done properly for less, and that is the reason this company exists.
