Engineering studio

Custom software that holds up under real use.

We are a small software engineering team. We build web applications and business process automation, and modernise legacy systems that have become too fragile to change.

What EVDOPES is

The problems EVDOPES is built for rarely start from a blank page: a platform built quickly and changed often, or an internal process held together by spreadsheets and repeated manual steps.

We work on both. New systems where a company needs one built properly, and existing systems where the code, the data model or the deployment has to be brought back under control.

We take a limited number of engagements at a time. That is a deliberate constraint, not a sales line: the person who scopes your work is the person who writes it.

Where engagements start

The Engineering Audit

Before we quote work, we look at what already exists. The audit is a free, fixed-scope review of your system: the code, the data model, the deployment, the parts that break, and the parts that will break next.

Once the scope and required access are agreed and received, you get a written, prioritised assessment within two hours. You can act on it with or without us.

Free. No charge and no obligation to continue.

  • Code and architecture review against how the system is actually used
  • Data model and integrity problems, with the queries that prove them
  • Deployment, environments, backups and what happens when something fails
  • Security and access review
  • A prioritised list: what to fix now, what to plan, what to leave

How an engagement runs

You tell us what is wrong or what you need built. We read the material before the first call, so the call is about the problem rather than introductions.


  • Audit or scoping first — never a quote from a brief alone
  • Fixed scope per phase, with a written definition of done
  • You own the repository, the accounts and the infrastructure from day one
  • Handover includes documentation and a working local setup, not a zip file

Tell us what the system does and where it hurts.

Two ways to start: send the details and we review them first, or book a call and we look at it together.
