# Software Development in Gloucester

> dijitul builds bespoke software, web applications and system integrations for businesses in Gloucester, from insurers and engineering firms to distributors near the M5. We work remotely from our base in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, using video calls and shared project boards. Every project starts with a free chat and gets a fixed-price quote before any work begins.

Gloucester is the county city of Gloucestershire and a working city rather than a showpiece. Its economy mixes financial services, engineering, public sector offices and logistics, with the M5 junctions 11 and 12 putting it within easy reach of Bristol, Birmingham and South Wales.

Insurance has deep roots here. Ecclesiastical Insurance, part of the Benefact Group, is headquartered in the city, and the Barnwood office area has long housed insurance and energy businesses, including EDF's nuclear generation offices. Firms like these, and the smaller brokers and professional practices around them, run on policy data, document workflows and reporting. That usually means work on [customer portals](https://dijituldevelopments.co.uk/customer-portal-development/), secure document handling and integrations between core systems and the tools staff actually use day to day.

Engineering and aerospace matter across the wider county, with the cluster around Gloucestershire Airport at Staverton sitting between Gloucester and Cheltenham. Supply chain firms there need job tracking, quality records, traceability and stock control that a generic package rarely fits. The trading estates at Waterwells in Quedgeley, Hucclecote and Kingsway carry a mix of manufacturers, trade counters and distribution businesses with similar needs: order capture, warehouse picking, and accounts packages like Xero or Sage that stay in step with operations.

The regenerated docks and Gloucester Quays have brought retail, hospitality and leisure into the city centre. The University of Gloucestershire has its Oxstalls campus in the city, focused on business, sport and health, and the county's cyber security cluster centred on Cheltenham spills over into Gloucester's supplier base.

Typical Gloucester projects we would expect to quote for include:

- Broker and agency portals that pull policy or case data from an existing system
- Job, quality and traceability software for engineering subcontractors
- Stock and order integrations linking ecommerce, warehouse and accounts
- Booking and membership systems for leisure and hospitality around the Quays

### Can you work with our Gloucester team without visiting?

Yes. dijitul works remotely from Mansfield using video calls, screen sharing and a shared project board. Discovery workshops, demos and user testing all run online, and you see working software at regular check-ins rather than waiting until the end of the build.

### Do you cover Quedgeley, Tewkesbury and Stroud as well?

Yes. Because we work remotely, location makes no difference to how we run a project. Businesses in Quedgeley, Tewkesbury, Stroud, Cheltenham and across Gloucestershire get the same process: a free chat, a scoping stage, then a fixed-price quote for the agreed scope.

### Can you connect our policy or job system to Xero or Sage?

Usually, yes. If your existing system has an API, a database we can read, or even a reliable export, we can build an integration that pushes invoices, payments or customers into Xero or Sage automatically, with logging so finance staff can see what synced and what needs attention.
