Software for Livingston businesses
Livingston is a new town in West Lothian, designated in 1962 and built to bring industry to the area between Edinburgh and Glasgow. In the 1980s and 1990s it was part of Silicon Glen, the Scottish electronics manufacturing boom. Some of the large plants have since closed, but the town kept its industrial base and has broadened into life sciences, logistics and retail.
Manufacturing remains important. Mitsubishi Electric makes air conditioning equipment in Livingston, and the Kirkton Campus, Houstoun Industrial Estate and Starlaw Park house manufacturers, engineering firms and technology businesses. Manufacturers here need production scheduling, quality records, stock control and integrations between shop floor data and ERP or accounts systems.
Life sciences and healthcare firms have a presence in the town too, often in manufacturing or laboratory roles that come with traceability and document control requirements. Software for these businesses needs controlled access, version history and dependable audit logs.
Livingston sits beside the M8 with quick access to Edinburgh Airport, so warehousing and distribution are significant. Logistics firms need warehouse management, carrier integrations and customer portals that give shippers live visibility. Retail is a large employer as well, with the town centre shopping and Livingston Designer Outlet drawing shoppers from across central Scotland. West Lothian College provides technical training locally, and St John's Hospital is a major employer.
Livingston projects we would expect to quote for include:
- Production and quality systems for manufacturers
- Document control and traceability tools for life sciences firms
- Warehouse and logistics software with carrier integrations
- Customer portals showing live order and delivery status

How we work with Livingston 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 a customer portal for our logistics business?
Yes. dijitul builds portals where customers book collections, track consignments, download proof of delivery and see invoices. The portal connects to your transport or warehouse system, so customers stop phoning for updates and your office team gets time back.
Do you cover Bathgate, Broxburn, Edinburgh and the M8 corridor?
Yes. We work remotely, so businesses in Bathgate, Broxburn, Linlithgow, Edinburgh and along the M8 corridor get the same process: a free chat, a scoping stage, and a fixed-price quote.
Can your software support document control for regulated manufacturing?
Yes. We build version control, approval workflows, read-and-understood records and audit trails for documents and procedures. We do not certify compliance ourselves, but we build the system to support your quality team's requirements and their audits.
