/ Custom apps & business portals

Custom apps and business portals built in South Africa.

Move a specific business process into a custom web app. We build ordering portals, account areas and internal tools around the people using them, the information they need and the systems your business already runs.

/ What we build

Designed around a useful outcome.

01

Customer & dealer portals

Give customers a focused place to find products, submit orders and see the information relevant to their account. Agree permissions and the ordering process before adding complexity.

02

Internal workflows

Replace a repeated manual step with a tool designed for your team. Start with one workflow, such as lead follow-up, document handling or a dashboard, then build from real feedback.

03

Connected information

Scope the connection to your existing systems, including what data is available and who may access it. Integration work depends on the systems and access available to your business.

/ How it starts

Start with the workflow, then build the software

A useful portal begins with a clear answer to three questions: who uses it, what they need to accomplish, and what happens next. We map that journey with you, identify the first release and create a working version for review.

  • Define access: customer, dealer, staff and administrator responsibilities.
  • Agree the first release: the essential screens, data and actions.
  • Test real scenarios: review the workflow with the people who will use it.

/ Before you start

Common questions.

Can you build a B2B ordering portal?

Yes. The Tolsen dealer portal is an example of this work. Your project would be scoped around your catalogue, customer accounts, pricing rules and order process.

Can it connect to our current software?

We first check what your existing systems support, what access is available and which information needs to move between them. The integration and its ongoing requirements are agreed as part of the project.

Can I see other business tools?

Explore Forge Sales Buddy for sales workflows and Forge Billing for quotes, invoices and payments. Some product areas require an account.

Show us the process you want to improve.

Describe who uses the system, what they do today and where the work gets held up. That is enough to start a useful scoping conversation.
