# Software Development in Kirkcaldy

Source: https://dijituldevelopments.co.uk/locations/kirkcaldy/

> dijitul develops bespoke software, web apps and integrations for Kirkcaldy and central Fife businesses, including manufacturers, renewable energy suppliers, care providers and retailers. We work remotely from our base in Mansfield and share progress through regular online demos. Every project starts with a free chat and is priced as a fixed-price quote for an agreed scope.

Kirkcaldy is the largest town in Fife, known as the Lang Toun because of its long main street running along the Firth of Forth shore. It is the birthplace of Adam Smith, author of The Wealth of Nations, and its industrial history is closely tied to linoleum. Forbo still produces floor coverings in the town, continuing a manufacturing tradition that goes back to the nineteenth century.

Manufacturing remains part of the local economy, alongside food production and engineering firms on industrial estates around the town. These businesses need production planning, batch records, stock control and integrations between ordering, the factory floor and accounts packages. Many still rely on spreadsheets that one person understands, which creates risk when that person is away.

Renewable energy is a growing opportunity nearby. Fife Energy Park at Methil, on the coast east of Kirkcaldy, supports offshore wind and energy manufacturing, and the Forth estuary is a focus for offshore wind supply chain activity. Engineering and services firms working in this area need asset tracking, competence records and project reporting tools. Glenrothes, a few miles inland, adds electronics and defence manufacturing to the wider area.

Fife College has a large campus in Kirkcaldy, and Victoria Hospital is Fife's main acute hospital and a major employer. Care providers, retailers, hospitality businesses and trades firms make up much of the town's small business base.

Kirkcaldy projects we would expect to quote for include:

- Production, batch and stock systems for manufacturers
- Asset and competence tracking for renewable energy contractors
- Rostering and compliance tools for care providers
- Replacing fragile spreadsheets with a proper [database application](https://dijituldevelopments.co.uk/database-development/)

### Can you turn our spreadsheets into a proper system?

Yes. dijitul reviews how your spreadsheets are used, identifies the real data and rules, and builds a web application with a proper database, user accounts and reports. Existing data is migrated and checked, so nothing is lost in the move.

### Do you cover Glenrothes, Leven, Burntisland and Dunfermline?

Yes. We work remotely, so businesses in Glenrothes, Leven, Methil, Burntisland, Dunfermline and across Fife get the same process: a free chat, a scoping stage, and a fixed-price quote for the agreed scope.

### Can you link our production system with our accounts software?

Yes. We can push completed orders, invoices and stock values into Sage, Xero or QuickBooks through their APIs, and pull payment status back. That keeps the factory and finance team working from the same numbers without double entry.
