Software development for UK organisations that care about process and data
UK buyers tend to ask precise questions about GDPR, accessibility and who is actually doing the work. Hirvex Technologies answers those in the statement of work. We build product and operational software for UK companies and do not pretend to be a London agency with a fake postcode.
Who this is for. UK product owners, operations directors and IT managers.
Problems we typically meet
These are the patterns that show up before a useful first release—not abstract “digital transformation” language.
- A supplier treated GDPR as a checkbox on a slide.
- Discovery was sold, then a junior team appeared.
- Accessibility was promised and then visually ignored.
- VAT, contracting and IP were left vague until invoices arrived.
How we approach the work
We discuss data processing, hosting region and sub-processors before production personal data moves. Delivery happens in English with UK-friendly hours. WCAG-minded UI is a scoped standard, not a slogan.
What a serious first release can include
Scope is confirmed in discovery. This is the shape of work we are equipped to deliver—not a menu you must buy in full.
- Custom product engineering
- GDPR-aware process and hosting choices
- Public-sector-adjacent portals when procured honestly
- Integrations with UK-common SaaS tools
What we need from you
A useful brief is better than a long one. If you can answer most of the following, we can propose a first slice instead of a theatre estimate.
- Who will use this, and what must they finish in a session?
- Which systems must stay (accounting, payments, identity, a shop)?
- What is already live that we should not break?
- Any hosting region, language or compliance rule that is non-negotiable?
- The date that actually matters—and why.
How an engagement runs
Four steps. No mystery bench.
Scope
We reply with clarifying questions and a first-release outline: modules, roles, integrations and what “done” means.
Build
Named engineers work in visible increments, with staging you can click and a weekly written status.
Run
Launch, handover and a support path. The system is yours to operate—not a black box we disappear from.
Questions we are asked
Are you ICO registered?
Registration status is stated in the contract and privacy materials in force at the time. We do not invent a registration number here.
Can you work to a UK SOW and change-control process?
Yes. Change control is how grown-up projects stay solvent.
Do you support GOV.UK design patterns?
When the buyer requires them, we work to the specified pattern library. That is a delivery constraint, not a sticker.
