Custom software for enterprising Houten

Houten is an enterprising municipality with strong business parks such as Rondeel, De Meerpaal and Doornkade. For companies that make, trade or deliver goods, a lot revolves around orders, planning and delivery times. The systems that record all this are usually built for administration, not for getting answers quickly.

Chief builds the software that makes the difference there: an integration that removes duplicate work, a portal for customers or suppliers, or a report that shows how you are performing.

Integrations, reporting and custom software

We don't do workplace management or IT support. We build software, and you can work with us in three ways:

  • Custom software: portals, platforms, apps and integrations between the packages you already use.
  • AI and data: data platforms, dashboards and automated reporting, and AI once your data is ready for it.
  • Developers and technical leadership: senior developers who build alongside your team, or technical leadership for a project.

For example, we built and maintain a trading platform for investors, and for that organisation's back office an integration that registers temporary workers, clients and placements in AFAS automatically, without manual input.

Common questions from our clients

We often hear three things. Companies work with separate systems that don't talk to each other, so staff enter data twice and errors creep in. Existing custom software is so old that the original supplier can no longer maintain it properly. Or the monthly report is pieced together by hand in Excel every time.

For the first, we build integrations and a shared data foundation. For the second, we take the software over: we work out how it is put together, make it maintainable again and keep building. For the third, we prepare the data in an environment with dashboards that update themselves.

An example: delivery reliability at a glance

A manufacturer had every order in its business system, but the system could not show how often deliveries arrived on the agreed date.

Chief built a reporting environment alongside the existing business system, fed with the same data. Staff now look up delivery reliability themselves, per customer, per supplier and per period. Reports on returns and the time to an order confirmation followed, and later on production as well. See our cases for more examples.

A short drive from our office

Our office is on Atoomweg in Utrecht, and Houten lies just south-east of the city. We mostly work from our own office and come to you when it helps: for an intake, a session with your management team or a day working alongside your team.

Prefer to come to us? You are welcome at Atoomweg 50.

Our structured approach: from vision to go-live

For us, technology is a means to an end. So we start with your business: where is time being lost, and what should the solution deliver? You get honest advice on the direction, even if an existing package will do.

Then we build in short steps, so you always see what is done and can adjust course. After go-live we maintain the software and keep building as your business grows.
