Custom software

When your operation does not fit a product, we build the system around it.

Lefori's products began as systems built for one business. The same team builds bespoke software for operations with their own workflow, with the roles, audit trail and reporting our products are built on.

What we build

Systems designed around an operation.

Production lines, supply chains, bookings, records and approvals, built around the way your work actually runs.

Production and processing

  • Batches moving through stations
  • Weights, counts and yield at each step
  • Waste, variance, holds and corrections
  • Traceability from raw material to packed unit

Supply chains and stores

  • Requisitions, purchase orders, goods received
  • Configurable approval matrices
  • Stores, issues, physical counts
  • Consumption and wastage analysis

Bookings and records

  • Enquiries, quotations, confirmations
  • Costing in more than one currency
  • Registers, queues and multi-step approvals
  • Documents from your own templates

Included in every build

The same standard as our own products.

  • Roles and permissions, per screen and per action
  • An audit trail of every action, with user, time and device
  • PDF and Excel reports on your letterhead
  • A phone layout for staff on the floor
  • Backups and health checks
  • A user guide and system documentation, so the system is never a mystery to the next person

How we work with you

Four steps, and the first one is free.

You see working software early and often, because changes are cheapest while a system is young.

01

Discover

We visit, follow a job from start to finish, and collect the forms, books and spreadsheets you use today. You sign off a written description of the workflow before anything is built.

02

Build

You see the system running with your own data as it is built, never mock-ups, so your team can try each part and say what is wrong while it is still cheap to change.

03

Launch

Existing records imported, users and roles set up, each role trained on its own screens with printed quick guides, and Lefori staff with your team for the first days of live use.

04

Support

Direct support by WhatsApp and phone from the people who built the system, a client group for updates, and release notes for every change.

The first step costs nothing. The discovery visit and the written description of your workflow are free, and yours to keep whether or not you go ahead. After that the work is quoted as fixed-price phases, and the system runs on your server or ours.

Work we have built

Some of the systems we have delivered.

A few examples from systems that are in daily use. Most of what we build is not listed here, and client names are kept private.

Rental management system

Property and tenancy management for landlords, property managers and agencies: units with rent and status, tenants with balances, history and a generated tenancy agreement, invoices, receipts, security deposits with itemised deductions, expenses, and demand notices raised for every overdue account in one action. Reports cover collections, deposit reconciliation, property performance and outstanding balances, on the owner's letterhead.

Delivered and in daily use, with an isolated workspace for each landlord or agency.

Food processing plant management system

Twelve stations across four parts of the line, from raw material intake to packaging. Workers enter only what they weigh, and the system works out useful output, by-product, waste, unaccounted variance and yield, routing each output to the next station, to stock, to rework or to waste. Material lots are traceable in both directions, with recipe versions, holds and corrections.

Delivered as a container for the client's own server, with a user guide and system documentation.

Contract catering management system

Client contracts and delivery schedules, purchase requisitions, orders, goods received, supplier invoices and payments, cash requisitions and payment vouchers, stores with batches and physical counts, kitchen requisitions and store issues, production batches, and wastage and consumption analysis. Six roles, a configurable approval matrix, an audit trail and fifteen branded reports.

Delivered and in daily use, with the first phase live.

Tour operations management system

Enquiry to itinerary to costing in more than one currency, with quotations kept as fixed snapshots, then booking, operations and finance. Itineraries and quotations as PDF and Word, plus invoices, receipts, supplier vouchers, booking confirmations and an operations pack. Margin rules with every override recorded.

Delivered and in daily use.

There is more than this page shows. Most of the systems we build stay private at the client's request, from single-site operations to multi-branch groups. Tell us what you run and we will talk you through work close to it.

Why trust us with a build

We run the software we write.

Lefori builds, hosts and supports its own systems for shops, pharmacies, health facilities and owners keeping several sets of books. The same team, and the same standard, builds to order.

Tell us about the operation.

Describe the work, the people who do it and where it currently breaks down. We will visit, write down the workflow with you, and quote the first phase.
