SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT IN BURYLongstanding relationships.
Longstanding relationships.
Individual solutions.
Our Bury experience includes Truslit (Bury) Limited, one of CBS’s longstanding clients. We bring that same focus on understanding the business to new applications and improvements across Bury and Greater Manchester.
A growing business can reach a point where the spreadsheet, paper form or collection of separate applications no longer fits. Information gets entered twice, a job needs chasing, or a useful report takes longer to prepare than it should. Bespoke software starts with those practical frustrations.
We develop applications around the people doing the work. Customer information, orders, documents and management reporting can become part of one consistent workflow, with an initial scope that solves a useful problem and can evolve over time.
Information that follows the job
Connect customer requirements, operational details and documents around the work your team performs.
Room for the next step
Develop an application that can be refined and extended as the business and its needs evolve.
LOCAL INDUSTRIES. INDIVIDUAL REQUIREMENTS.A borough with more
A borough with more
than one business story.
Bury brings together manufacturing roots, independent businesses, retail and services. The borough includes Bury, Prestwich, Whitefield, Radcliffe, Tottington and Ramsbottom, each with its own links to Lancashire and Greater Manchester.
The market is a familiar part of the town’s identity, while the M66 and Metrolink connect businesses with Manchester and the wider region. A company may serve customers far beyond Bury while still needing straightforward software for the work happening inside its own team.
01 / Manufacturing & operational businesses
Let information follow the work.
A manufacturer or operational business needs more than a list of orders. Customer requirements, job information, work in progress and documents need to stay connected. We can shape a system around the handovers and records that matter to your team.
Job information • Order records • Operational reporting02 / Independent businesses & services
Move beyond separate spreadsheets.
For Bury’s varied business community, useful software might bring enquiries, quotations, customer details and tasks into one place. The aim is a consistent way to manage the service you provide, with less repeated entry and fewer disconnected records.
Enquiries & quotations • Customer records • Workflow03 / Growing teams & multiple locations
Keep the process connected.
Teams working across offices, sites or home-working locations need access to the same relevant information. Browser-based bespoke software can support that shared process, with secure access and an interface designed around the users and devices involved.

BURY / A LONGSTANDING CBS RELATIONSHIP

Two timetables. One clearer view.
At Chetham’s in Manchester city centre, music scheduling and academic lesson information were brought together in one student timetable. A wider Greater Manchester example of software shaped around a specialist requirement.

A personal commitment.
We’re bringing more AI into our software development process, helping us explore ideas and support development. Experienced people remain responsible for architecture, review and testing.
For a business in Bury, that might mean exploring how to classify incoming enquiries, prepare document information for review or make a large collection of business records easier to search. We discuss the goal and the quality of the information before choosing whether AI belongs in the solution.

Our environmental commitmentBEFORE WE TALK
A few practical questions.
Every project starts with a conversation about your business.
Do you work across the borough of Bury?
Yes. We can discuss projects in Bury, Prestwich, Whitefield, Radcliffe, Tottington and Ramsbottom, as well as the wider Greater Manchester area. CBS is based in Burnley.
Do we need to write a technical specification?
No. A description of what takes too long, examples of your records and a look at the current workflow are useful starting points. We can then discuss the scope and the options.
Can the software change as our business grows?
Yes. We can agree an initial scope around a useful business need, then discuss further development as your team, processes or reporting requirements change.
