# We build custom software around how your business works.

**Stop running the business on spreadsheets and goodwill.**

Every growing company ends up with a patchwork: a spreadsheet for stock, a WhatsApp group for approvals, an app nobody likes for invoices. We build the one system that fits how your team already works, and grow it as you do.

- Built around your workflow
- Web, mobile and API
- Small first release, then grow
- Source code handed over

## How we build it

1. **Sit with the people who’ll use it** — We watch how orders, approvals, stock or invoices move through your team today and write down every step, exception and workaround.
2. **Design the data and the screens** — We model your data, sketch each screen your staff will use, and agree what the first working version must do before writing code.
3. **Build in short, visible cycles** — We build with TypeScript, Node.js and React, ship working features every few weeks to a test environment you can click through, and adjust as your team tries them.
4. **Move the data and go live** — We import your existing spreadsheets and records, train your team, switch over in stages, and keep monitoring errors and speed after launch.

## What you have at the end

- **One system instead of a patchwork** Stock, approvals, customers and invoices live in one place instead of spreadsheets, chat groups and three different apps.
- **Work that follows your process** The software matches how your team already works, so people use it instead of finding ways around it.
- **Reports you don’t have to build** The numbers you used to compile by hand at month end are a screen or an export away.
- **Code and data you own** The source code, the database and the documentation belong to you, so any developer can extend it later.

## What is custom software development in Ghana?

Custom software development is building an application around one company’s own processes instead of forcing the company into an off-the-shelf tool. EliteTeQ builds web apps, mobile apps, SaaS platforms and internal systems for businesses in Ghana, starting with the smallest release that fixes your biggest problem.

- Internal tools that replace spreadsheets
- Customer and staff mobile apps
- SaaS platforms with billing and accounts
- APIs that connect the tools you already use

## Signs you’ve outgrown off-the-shelf tools

- **The same data typed three times** An order goes into a spreadsheet, then an invoicing app, then a report. Every copy is a chance for a mistake. One system means one entry, and every screen updates from it.
- **Approvals live in WhatsApp threads** When a purchase or a discount needs sign-off, the request gets buried. We turn your approval rules into software, with a record of who approved what and when.
- **The tool almost fits** Off-the-shelf software covers most of the job and your team works around the rest. Those workarounds cost hours every week. We build for the part that doesn’t fit.
- **You can’t see the business in one place** Sales in one app, stock in another, staff in a third. We pull it together into one dashboard you can open on your phone.

## What we build

### Your process, written as software

We sit with the people who do the work, map every step, and turn the rules into a system that enforces them.

- Approval chains with a full audit trail
- Roles so people see only what they need
- Notifications when something waits on you

### One view of everything

Dashboards built from your real data, so the numbers you check every morning are on one screen.

- Live figures from every branch or team
- Totals in GHS, exportable to Excel
- Alerts when a number moves the wrong way

## What you get

- **Process map** — Your workflow written down step by step, agreed with the people who do it.
- **A working first release** — The smallest version that solves your biggest problem, in use early.
- **Web, mobile and API** — Whatever your team and customers need, on one shared backend.
- **Migration from old tools** — Your spreadsheets and old records moved in and checked.
- **Source code and documentation** — Stored in your account, written so another developer can follow it.
- **Ongoing development** — New features and fixes as the business changes, on a plan you choose.

## Questions clients ask us

**Is custom software more expensive than buying a tool?**

Up front, usually yes. Over time it can cost less, because you stop paying per user for features you don’t use and stop losing hours to workarounds. We tell you honestly when a ready-made tool is the better buy.

**How long until we can use it?**

We aim for a first release your team can use in weeks, not months, then build the rest in short cycles. The timeline for the first release is in the quote.

**Who owns the software?**

You do. The source code lives in your account, with documentation, so you can take it to another developer at any time.

**Can it work with the tools we already use?**

Usually, yes. Most accounting, messaging and cloud tools have an API we can connect to; we check this during the first call before quoting.

**Do you work with teams remotely in Ghana?**

Yes. We work with teams in Ghana over video calls, WhatsApp and email, and every release is available on a test link before it goes live.
