SERVICES

Starting from real problems: tools that do the job, run reliably and are easy to hand over

The goal is not to pile on features. First I check whether existing tools can solve the problem; when custom work is really needed, we start with the smallest workable version.

Custom research software

Turning repetitive tasks into small programs, desktop tools or internal web pages that researchers can use directly.

  • Python desktop GUIs
  • Batch file and data processing
  • Parameter settings and result export
  • Windows executable packaging

Suits projects with a clear process that is used repeatedly and where manual steps should be reduced.

Model and data automation

Connecting model runs, parameter sweeps, result summaries and plotting into a stable, repeatable workflow.

  • Batch runs of APSIM and other research models
  • CSV / Excel data cleaning
  • Statistical analysis and chart generation
  • Anomaly checks and result summaries

Suits research that already has models or data, but where running, organising and checking by hand takes too long.

Image recognition and measurement prototypes

Object localisation, size measurement and result visualisation for experimental images and industrial photos.

  • Image processing with OpenCV
  • Object recognition and region localisation
  • Size, area and shape measurement
  • Original, overlay and report output

Suits measurement tasks with fairly clear rules, where representative sample images can be provided.

Office and document workflow improvement

Streamlining repetitive work in Excel, Word, PDF, certificates and file management.

  • Excel / VBA tools
  • Batch PDF processing
  • Automatic Word and certificate generation
  • File naming, sorting and summaries

Suits internal efficiency improvements for labs, administrative offices and small teams.

Usually delivered

  • Working software or scripts
  • Installation and user instructions
  • Changes within the agreed scope
  • Necessary sample data and templates
  • Whether source code is delivered is agreed per project

Reference project sizes

These figures only give a rough idea of scale. The final cost depends on the data, features, number of revisions and how the work is delivered.

First, check whether it is worth building

Send your current way of working, sample files and the result you want. In the first conversation I check whether existing software can already solve it, to avoid unnecessary development.
