Automation & Custom Software that replaces spreadsheets, manual entry and disconnected tools

We design and build custom web applications, internal tools, SaaS products and automated workflows for businesses whose processes no longer fit off-the-shelf software. Our engineers work in Laravel, Node.js, Python, React and Flutter, and connect new systems to the Tally, ERP, CRM and payment tools you already use.

How we work

From manual process to working software in five stages

We measure the current process first, so every feature we build can be tied to time saved or errors removed.

01
Week 1–2

Process discovery

Sessions with the people who do the work, a map of the current process and time and error measurements.

02
Week 2–4

Solution design

User flows, wireframes, data model and integration plan, with a fixed-scope estimate for each phase.

03
Week 4–12

Agile development

Two-week sprints with a working demo at the end of each and access to a staging environment.

04
Week 12–14

Testing & UAT

Automated tests, security checks and user testing with real data before go-live.

05
Launch + ongoing

Rollout & support

Data migration, staff training, 30 days of hypercare and SLA-based support after that.

Build or buy

When custom software makes sense

Custom software is not always the answer. We recommend it only when the numbers support it, and tell you when an existing product will do the job.

Off-the-shelf SaaS

Best for standard processes

Accounting, email marketing or basic HR that works the same way in most businesses. Lower upfront cost with monthly per-user fees.

Low-code automation

Best for connecting existing tools

n8n, Make or Power Automate workflows between tools you already use, when no new screens are needed.

Custom web application

Best for core workflows

Processes that set you apart or fit no product, used every day by staff, partners or customers.

SaaS product

Best for selling software

Multi-tenant platforms you sell to other businesses, with subscriptions, onboarding and usage limits.

RPA bots

Best for systems without APIs

Government portals, bank websites and legacy desktop software that can only be operated through the screen.

Modernisation

Best for ageing systems

Old software that still runs the business but is hard to maintain, insecure or cannot connect to newer tools.

Industries

Custom software and automation by industry

We have built for these sectors most often, and understand the processes and compliance each one involves.

Manufacturing & MSMEs

Job cards, production planning, quality checklists, machine maintenance logs and dispatch, synced with Tally.

Textiles, sarees & handloom

Weaver job-work tracking, yarn issue and receipt, design catalogues, karigar payments and dispatch to retailers.

Healthcare & diagnostics

Sample tracking, lab workflows, report dispatch on WhatsApp and integration with our Hospital Management Suite.

Logistics & distribution

Dispatch planning, proof-of-delivery capture on mobile, route sheets and fleet expense tracking.

CA, finance & professional firms

Client document collection, compliance calendars, GST and TDS return tracking and fee billing.

Real estate & construction

Site progress reports, material requisitions, contractor billing and customer booking management.

Why EPA IT Solutions

Software built around how your business already works

Most of our custom projects start as spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups. We study the process first, then build only what removes real work, integrated with the accounting and ERP tools your team already trusts.

You own the code and IP

IP is assigned to you in the contract, and the Git repository sits in your organisation’s account from day one.

Fixed-scope phases

Each phase is priced and demoed before the next one begins, so budget and progress are always visible.

Indian business systems expertise

Tally, GST, e-invoicing, UPI, WhatsApp Business and DLT-registered SMS are part of our everyday work.

Long-term support

The team that builds your software also maintains it, under an SLA with defined response times.

FAQ

Custom software and automation questions we are asked most

Something not covered here? Call +91 91150 89470 or email info@epaits.com.

Build when the process is central to how you operate, is used every day by many people and does not fit existing products without costly workarounds. For standard tasks such as accounting or email marketing, an existing product is usually cheaper. Our process audit compares both options.

Cost depends on the number of users, screens, integrations and business rules. After a process audit we provide a fixed-scope estimate for each phase, along with hosting and maintenance costs, so you can compare it with the cost of the current manual process.

A focused internal tool or automation usually takes 4 to 8 weeks. A larger web application, portal or SaaS product with integrations typically takes 3 to 6 months, delivered in phases so parts of it are in use earlier.

You do. Intellectual property is assigned to your business in the contract, the code lives in a Git repository in your organisation’s account, and you receive full documentation at handover.

Yes. We start with a code and security audit, document what exists, fix critical issues and then continue development or maintenance under an SLA.

Yes. We integrate with Tally Prime over XML and ODBC and write TDL customisations, so sales, purchases, receipts and stock can post automatically without double entry.

API integration connects systems directly through their official interfaces and is faster and more reliable. RPA uses bots that operate a screen like a person, and is used when a system such as a government portal or old desktop software offers no API.

Every project includes 30 days of hypercare. After that, support plans cover bug fixes, security updates, monitoring and a set number of enhancement hours each month, with defined response times.
