# Software Development in Reading

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

> dijitul develops bespoke software, web apps and integrations for Reading businesses, from Thames Valley tech firms and corporate offices to utilities suppliers, consultancies and growing SMEs. We work remotely from Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, and each project receives a fixed-price quote after a free chat about your systems, users and the outcome you want.

Reading is the commercial centre of the Thames Valley and one of the UK's most important locations for technology businesses. Microsoft's UK headquarters is at Thames Valley Park on the east side of the town, and many other software, IT services and telecoms companies have offices along the M4 corridor. Green Park, south of the town centre, is a large business park with its own railway station, and Thames Water is headquartered in Reading.

The University of Reading, including Henley Business School, brings research in agriculture, meteorology, real estate and business, and supports the Thames Valley Science Park at Shinfield. Reading station is a major rail hub and the western terminus of the Elizabeth line, which, together with fast GWR services to Paddington, makes the town attractive to companies that want London access without London costs. The Oracle shopping centre and riverside anchor a busy retail and hospitality trade.

Reading's business base is technically literate, so software requests tend to be specific:

- Integrations between CRM, ERP, billing and support platforms using their APIs and webhooks

- Internal tools and reporting dashboards that IT teams do not have capacity to build

- Field engineer and asset management apps for utilities and infrastructure contractors

- Client portals for consultancies, property firms and professional services

Larger organisations here often have an internal IT team but a long backlog. We can take on a clearly defined project, such as an integration or an internal web app, and deliver it to your standards: your Git workflow, your SSO, your hosting, with documentation your team can maintain. Smaller firms get the same discipline at a scale that suits them.
