Custom Business Tools & Automation
Tools built around how you work.
When off-the-shelf software doesn't fit, SDS builds a tool that does. Job tracking, timesheets, invoicing and automation, shaped around the way your business already runs.
What can be built
Common starting points
Most builds start with the one part of the business that's costing the most time, then grow from there.
Job & Work Tracking
Jobs, tasks and who's working on what, in one place instead of a whiteboard and three spreadsheets.
Get a quote →Timesheets to Invoices
Hours logged once against the job, then turned into checked timesheets and invoice-ready reports without retyping anything.
Get a quote →Equipment & Asset Records
What you own, where it is, who has it, and when it was last serviced. Searchable from a phone.
Get a quote →Service Desks & Issue Tracking
Log problems as they happen, track them to resolution, and see which ones keep coming back.
Get a quote →Microsoft 365 Automation
Power Automate flows, SharePoint lists and Microsoft Forms that handle approvals, requests and notifications without the copy-and-paste.
Get a quote →Spreadsheet Rescue
The critical spreadsheet only one person understands, rebuilt as a simple tool the whole team can use.
Get a quote →In practice
A local ship repair company runs its harbour crews on a custom tool built by SDS. Crews log work against jobs every day, and the system turns it into timesheets and invoices. Every custom build is scoped and quoted as a project before any work starts.
How it works
Understand first. Then build.
Every project starts with a free Walkthrough, on site in the Strait area or by video anywhere else. No obligation, no surprise bills.
- 1The WalkthroughA free conversation about how your business actually runs: who does what, where the time goes, what keeps slipping.
- 2The PlanA short written summary of what would help, with a fixed quote before any work starts.
- 3The BuildA website, a custom tool or IT fixes. Whatever actually helps, and nothing you don't need.
