A Fourth Capability

We also write the software we run on.

Most consultancies buy a package and hope it fits. We write our own — in Python, MATLAB, VBA and Advanced Excel — so every estimate workbook, bar bending schedule and hydrology routine is built for the job in front of us, not a generic template. The same capability is available to clients who want a tool of their own.

What We Build

Software that runs our own practice — and can run yours.

Parametric estimate workbooks

SSR-linked estimates and change-of-scope sheets that recalculate the whole abstract from a handful of inputs — no line forgotten, no formula broken by a copy-paste.

Drawing-linked BBS & quantities

Bar bending schedules and quantity sheets generated straight from the structure's geometry — change the drawing, and the numbers regenerate with it.

Interactive 3D structure models

Bridges, culverts and buildings modelled at true levels from the approved drawings — so the model, the estimate and the BBS all trace to the same geometry.

Hydrology & GIS automation

Catchment delineation, rainfall–runoff and culvert-hydraulics routines built on ArcGIS, QGIS, HEC-HMS and HEC-RAS — scripted so a new catchment runs in minutes, not days.

Optimisation & decision models

Numerical methods, LP/NLP/GA optimisation and multi-criteria analysis — for conjunctive-use planning, resource allocation and design trade-offs with the uncertainty checked, not assumed.

Custom tools for clients

A department or contractor with a repeating calculation — estimate, BBS, hydraulic check — can have the same kind of tool built and handed over, with training.

The Difference

Written by the engineers who use it, not a software vendor.

A vendor sells a dashboard and moves on to the next client. We write the tool, use it on our own assignments first, and fix it the day it is wrong — because the same two partners who sign your contract are the ones who wrote the code.

  • Built in Python, MATLAB, VBA and Advanced Excel — no proprietary lock-in
  • Every tool checked against real drawings and real tenders, not sample data
  • Hydrology and GIS routines backed by peer-reviewed research
  • Delivered as a workbook or script you keep and can hand to your own staff

Have a calculation you run by hand, every time?

Describe it, and we will tell you whether it is worth turning into a tool — and what that would look like.
