graphical software development

About dhp11

We are experts in the development of mapping and GIS applications for Bentley MicroStation.

The development team have a proven track record spanning fifteen years in business together. We have worked on nearly a thousand projects and are unashamedly technical. All members of staff are programmers first and foremost. We pride ourselves on the quality of our development. 

Despite being a highly technical organisation we think that number and variety of projects we have worked on allow us to relate and identify with the end users. We are never happier than when we are discussing the requirements and daily problems with the person who is actually going to use the system we are developing.

We adopted Rapid Application Development (RAD) and 'agile programming' long before these buzzwords were fashionable. RAD means having early and frequent contact with the customer, keeping them informed of progress and showing them the software as it develops. Who could argure with that?

For us 'agile programming' is the only way to develop software. We pool our collective resources and each member of the team contributes their own special skills. By knowing each others strengths and weaknesses we are able to schedule work efficiently, applying extra resources where and when they are necessary 

Corporate Memory

Many organisations have quite a high turnover of staff. dhp11 are quite different. The core team of Andrew, Derek and Matthew have worked together since 1990. By working together for so long this team has evolved an efficient and effective way of developing robust and efficient systems.

Put simply, we must develop reliable systems because if they go wrong we know who is going to have to fix them - us!
