www.backlogs.co.uk

This was an exciting contract with Backlogs Ltd, part of HCA Healthcare UK. It was a great opportunity to be involved in the creation of systems used to deliver world-class healthcare. We carried out custom work on their bespoke system, Chameleon, which is being transformed into the Chameleon Plus System, a best-in-class platform for telepathology and cancer diagnostics.

The project involved:

• The introduction of a new user structure
• DB optimisation
• Programming custom functions
• Word document reporting
• PDF merging
• The introduction of custom PDF behaviours
• Layout optimisation

All programming was in bespoke PHP, MySQL and Javascript. There are no frameworks, making for a fast and efficient system that supports over 1,000 entries per day, and which is easy to use and maintain.

www.ipcentrum.com

For this project, we were tasked with implementing European patent test rules for the law engine at IP Centrum, part of the de Banke Group. It was an extremely challenging task, involving:

• Interpretation of rules provided by the patent office
• Programming unit tests for all these rules
• Working directly with the law engine
• Sending JSON requests using Postman
• Running input generator tests on the rules

We then had to work out all renewal dates, late periods, fees, critical deadlines, and surcharges based on the technical due date, actual due date, grant date and anniversary date. This involved working with leap years, non-existent dates and affecting dates (weekends, bank holidays and national holidays). We also needed to group renewals, work with waivers and apply discounts.

Overall, this was a very complex bespoke PHP application with no framework, and we are glad that we were able to be a part of the development process.

www.assurantsolutions.co.uk

This was an amazing contract at Assurant Solutions: we completed Magento upgrades from 1.x to 2.x on mobile phone insurance systems for Barclays, Nationwide and Lloyds. We worked with Apple’s API, and also provided support for any ongoing issues using JIRA and Cherwell. This was a great project to be involved with, alongside a strong team of people working on multiple custom applications.

www.mcsuk.org

This is a current project of ours, where we are working on the integration of the Marine Conservation Society’s Beachwatch system with the current mscuk.org website, a bespoke framework with a touch of Symfony. We are also working on a custom API, connecting the Apple and Android apps with the Beachwatch database. So far, we have had to complete a data import from Drupal 5 to a custom built database, and work with geolocation and centroids on Google Maps. We are still working closely with the Marine Conservation Society, and this project has lots of scope. It’s been a challenging and rewarding experience.

FAQ

Q: Do I really need a web developer?
A: Yes! Using a template can only get you so far. A developer will be able to use and create a variety of technologies and systems to meet your specific needs.

Q: How can a web developer help me?
A: A developer can help you with your public image and the everyday running of your business. They can build a highly functioning website for you, with features designed around your target audience. And/ or they can develop the back-end area and provide you with the tools you need to manage all aspects of your business.

Q: How much will the work cost?
A: That all depends on what you need. Our work is completely bespoke so we will be able to discuss costs with you once we understand your requirements. If you have a budget in mind, let us know and we can talk about how we can work within it.

Q: Will the process be really technical? I’m a bit of a technophobe.
A: Not at all. We are here to make your life as easy as possible. The beauty of a bespoke system is that it can be as complex or as simple as you like. We will consult with you regularly during the design and build process to ensure you are completely happy with how everything is progressing.

Q: Do I need to come to you with a clear idea of what I want?
A: No. We can find the right solution for you. Very few clients know exactly what they want or need – we use our knowledge and technology expertise to design something that fits you perfectly.

Q: What is the timescale for a new website?
A: There isn’t a definite answer here – we will be able to give you timescales and set deadlines once we know what you need. Talk to us about your requirements and we can then advise you on the process and how long the various stages will take.

Q: Why is a bespoke system so much better?
A: A bespoke system gives you complete control. Choose what is relevant to you and omit the elements that don’t match up with your business model. You will also be able to amend your system in future if your requirements change.

Q: What makes SMNETIC unique?
A: The service you receive is second to none. So many developers will outsource your work abroad – but not us! Everything you entrust to us stays here in the UK, where we can constantly monitor quality. We have a great track record and can offer you far more experience than your standard design and build agency.

Q: Can I see some of your work?
A: Of course. Have a look through our portfolio to see some of the projects we have worked on. There are also testimonials from our customers if you’d like to know what it’s like to work with us.
