# Software development in Houston, TX

> Energy and petrochemicals on one side, the Texas Medical Center on the other, and a long tail of companies serving both. If you run one of them, you generate instrumented data at a volume where an AI answer without its source is unusable, and a regulator will eventually ask how a number was reached.

## Why Houston work is our work

Your operations run on software nobody can change quickly, and your own engineers are booked until next year. Our senior engineers build the replacement alongside them, so you can show exactly what happened on any given night, and they stay through the first months in production. In Houston that's a pipeline operator's integrity records, an energy trader's scheduling system downtown, or a container yard at Port Houston's Barbours Cut terminal.

## Dynamics 365 consultants in Houston

Oilfield services firms in the Energy Corridor, equipment distributors and Ship Channel engineering contractors in Houston use Dynamics 365 Business Central for job costing, rentals and field service billing. We implement it with Dynamics 365 CRM and connect both to field and maintenance systems, so the invoice matches the work done.

## Work a buyer here would recognise

Sensor histories and clinical records come from systems that never shared a key, and the pipeline built for Athlinks deals with that shape, stitching more than 400 million athlete records from disparate sources. It runs on Temporal with automated retries and real-time visibility, so a failed step reruns and the run stays observable.

## Two regulators can share one platform

Two of Houston's large producers of data answer to different rulebooks. A pipeline operator on the Ship Channel keeps integrity records that PHMSA audits under 49 CFR Parts 192 and 195. A sponsor running trials in the Texas Medical Center keeps electronic records under the FDA's 21 CFR Part 11, with HIPAA over the patient data, and the service firms working for both hold records under each.

## Questions

### We have both energy operations and clinical research. One platform?

Yes, and without a fork. Policy is evaluated per action rather than per application, so two regimes with different rules run on the same runtime with different checkpoints enforced. Maintaining two platforms to satisfy two regulators is the expensive way to solve this.

### Do you have an office in Houston?

The office is in Gilbert, Arizona, with teams in Amsterdam, Dnipro and Hyderabad. Delivery is remote or hybrid, and we travel for discovery, workshops and the opening weeks of a build.

## What software development covers

### Web applications

Applications built to be changed safely years after the original team has moved on. That means tests that mean something, seams where the business logic can move, and a deployment nobody is afraid of.

### Mobile applications

iOS and Android, built as products rather than as ports. The maintenance story is decided at the start, while it is still cheap.

### APIs and integration

The seams between systems, done once and properly. Most of the expensive failures we are called into are integration failures wearing another name.

### Data platforms

The layer underneath the application, on Databricks, Azure, AWS or Google Cloud. If the reporting and the application disagree, the platform is the reason.

### Modernisation of what exists

Often the work arrives as something already built that has become hard to change. We would rather read it and tell you honestly whether it is worth keeping than sell a rewrite you may not need.

### Durable, auditable workflows

Processes that take days, call several systems and must never half-complete. Getting that right is a different discipline from getting a request handler right, and it is where we spend most of our time.

## Working with us from Arizona

Arizona does not observe daylight saving, so we are one hour behind you from November to March and two hours behind from March to November. A morning standup on your clock is still early afternoon on ours.

Most delivery is remote or hybrid. We travel for discovery, workshops and the opening weeks of a build.
