Software for Stevenage businesses
Stevenage was the first of Britain's post-war new towns, designated in 1946, and it has become a significant high technology location. Airbus Defence and Space builds satellites in Stevenage, including spacecraft for science missions and telecommunications, and MBDA, the missile systems company, has a major site in the town. Together they support a supply chain of precision engineers, electronics specialists, test houses and engineering consultancies across Hertfordshire.
Life sciences is the other big cluster. GSK has a large research and development campus in Stevenage, and alongside it the Stevenage Bioscience Catalyst provides labs and offices for start-ups and growing biotech companies. The Cell and Gene Therapy Catapult's manufacturing innovation centre is also in the town, and Stevenage has become a growing hub for cell and gene therapy.
The A1(M) and fast trains to London King's Cross keep the town well connected. Lister Hospital and North Hertfordshire College are major local employers, and the town centre is being extensively regenerated.
Software for Stevenage businesses often has to meet high standards:
- Document control, configuration management and test record systems for space and defence suppliers
- Laboratory workflow, sample tracking and batch record tools for biotech and cell therapy companies, designed with data integrity principles in mind
- Secure portals for exchanging data with prime contractors, partners or investors
- Resource, timesheet and project costing tools for engineering consultancies
- Booking and job management systems for local service businesses
In regulated work, how software is built matters as much as what it does. We keep requirements, code reviews, test evidence and releases documented so your quality team can validate the system.

How we work with Stevenage 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
Do you cover Hitchin, Letchworth and Baldock?
Yes. dijitul works remotely with businesses across north Hertfordshire, including Hitchin, Letchworth Garden City, Baldock, Knebworth and Royston. Every project runs over video calls with a staging site, and receives a fixed-price quote after a free chat.
Can you build software that supports GxP data integrity?
Yes. We build with the principles regulators expect: unique user accounts, electronic signatures where needed, a full audit trail of every change, controlled releases and documented testing. We provide the evidence your quality team needs to validate the system for its intended use.
Can you work to our prime contractor's security requirements?
Yes. We follow your customer's security and data handling requirements, which may include UK hosting, access controls, encryption, secure development practices and supplier assurance questionnaires. We agree these during scoping so they are included in the fixed-price quote.
