We build the systems that improve how your business runs, we build them alongside your people, and we train your team to use them so the knowledge stays with you.
CogniTech Systems is an engineering company in Chester. We build software, infrastructure, AI and connected devices, and we do it from inside the businesses we work with rather than at arm's length.
Our engineers are forward deployed. We work alongside you remotely day to day, learn how your business runs, and build so that what we leave behind fits the way you already operate and your own people can carry it once we step back.
See what we bring with usThree starting points to get you where you need to be. If they don't fit, we can create something new.
You are running the business on email, spreadsheets and whatever the last person set up. We put in the systems that fit how you work, get you live, then look after them.
You know the problem but not how to solve it. We prove the idea, build the thing, train whoever is going to run it, then step back or stick around. Your call.
You have people and a roadmap, and a skill gap you need filling. We forward deploy an engineer into the team, for an agreed period or an ongoing relationship.
The skills we can bring to your business. We work out what your requirements need, and bring them to you.
Most of what a business runs on already exists inside CORE NEXUS, our own platform. Where it does not fit, or where you want to own every line of it, we build from scratch instead.
CORE NEXUS already handles CMS, CRM, ERP, ecommerce, auditing and connected hardware. You pay for what makes your business different, not the foundations.
The fit has to be exact, or the code has to be yours outright. We build in your stack and your repositories, and hand everything over at the end.
You get the engineers doing the work, reachable the way you already work, for as long as the work needs them.
Teams, Slack, email or the phone, whatever you already use. If you run a repo and a ticket board we work in yours, and if not we set them up for you.
We work UK hours. If you run a standup we are in it, and if you do not we agree a catch up that suits how you run your week.
Wherever you have a developer or an analyst, they pair with us. Where you have nobody technical, we cover the role ourselves.
Code, logins, documentation and decisions live in your accounts from day one, not ours.
If something you have asked for will not pay for itself, we tell you before you commit budget to it.
The end of an engagement is a proper handover, with training and documentation.
Everything we build is yours, in your accounts, documented, and understood by someone on your payroll.
Bring us a plan or just an idea. We will arrange a discovery meeting with you to go through it.
