Software for Aberdeen businesses
Aberdeen has been the UK's offshore energy capital since North Sea oil and gas production began in the 1970s. Operators, drilling contractors and a large service supply chain are based in and around the city, and the North Sea Transition Authority, which regulates offshore oil, gas and carbon storage, has its headquarters here. Westhill, just west of the city, is home to one of the world's biggest clusters of subsea engineering businesses.
The industry is changing. Offshore wind, hydrogen and carbon capture are drawing investment, and the Energy Transition Zone beside the new South Harbour is being developed for low carbon industries. Service firms are reworking their offer for new customers, and that often exposes older internal systems built for a different era.
Energy supply chain businesses run on documents and data: equipment certification, inspection and maintenance records, personnel competence and training matrices, timesheets for offshore rotations, and project cost reporting. They need software that tracks assets across sites and vessels, issues certificates, and integrates with ERP and accounts systems. Dyce, near the airport and the main heliport, and business parks such as Prime Four at Kingswells carry many of these firms.
Aberdeen has two universities, the University of Aberdeen and Robert Gordon University, both with strong engineering and energy programmes. Beyond energy, the north east has a significant seafood processing industry, a farming and whisky hinterland in Aberdeenshire, and a professional services base of solicitors and accountants.
Aberdeen projects we would expect to quote for include:
- Asset, inspection and certification tracking for equipment rental firms
- Competence, training and offshore rotation management

How we work with Aberdeen clients
We work remotely from Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, using video calls, shared staging sites you can click around in and short build stages you can see. Every project gets a fixed-price quote after a free initial chat and a short scoping stage. You own the code and the data. We have been building software and integrations for UK businesses since 2006.
Free chat
Tell us the problem in plain English: what you do now, what goes wrong and what "better" looks like. No charge, no obligation.
Scoping
We map the processes, systems and data involved, agree what is in and out, and write it down so there are no surprises.
Fixed-price quote
You get a fixed price for the agreed scope, or a phased plan for bigger builds, so you can start small and prove it works.
Build and test
We build in short stages you can see and try, test against real data, then go live carefully with a rollback plan.
Hand over and look after
You own the code and the data. We can host it, support it and keep improving it, or hand it to your own team.

Frequently asked questions
Can you build an asset and certification tracker for offshore equipment?
Yes. dijitul builds systems that track each asset by serial number, location and status, store inspection results and certificates, flag upcoming expiry dates and produce documentation packs for clients. Barcode or QR scanning on a phone makes recording quick for workshop staff.
Do you cover Westhill, Dyce, Inverurie and Stonehaven?
Yes. We work remotely, so businesses in Westhill, Dyce, Inverurie, Ellon, Stonehaven and across Aberdeenshire get the same service. You start with a free chat and receive a fixed-price quote after scoping.
Can you connect our system to our existing ERP?
Usually, yes. If your ERP offers an API, database access or scheduled file exchange, we can build a dependable integration with logging, retries and alerts. We confirm the connection method during discovery so the fixed-price quote reflects the real technical picture.
Can you handle offshore rotation and timesheet rules?
Yes. We model rotation patterns, travel days, standby, day rates and overtime rules as configurable settings rather than hard-coded logic, then generate approved timesheets and billing data. That keeps payroll and client invoicing consistent.
