The 2026-09-28 expansion grew the one-page design to nine pages by bolting a nav band under each hero. This makes the cluster one site: - One site header on every page: the wordmark (home link) and a single row of short, consistent labels (Applications, Systems, Hosting, AI, Engagement, Track record, Contact). The nav no longer wraps into two rows at desktop width or four on a phone. - A real <h1> on every page (the title was a <p>), a skip link, and one footer outside <main> on every page, home included. - The contact page was unreadable: its section borrowed the home page's dark contact-card id, so its copy was grey on near-black (2.3:1) and its headings measured 1.0:1. It is an ordinary section now. - Section numbers only where there is a sequence (home, engagement). - The spec bar names all four services; it stacks cleanly on a phone. - Contrast: --text-tertiary 4.3:1 -> 4.96:1, --accent-text 4.36:1 -> 4.74:1 on paper. Track-record labels drop tracked capitals. - The grid behind the hero and the contact card is its own layer; the contact card loses its left side-tab stripe. - The stylesheet link is versioned (style.css?v=2026-09-28): CSS is cached for an hour, and the new markup must not meet the old styles. - README: nine pages, the shared structure, the CSS-version rule, and the operator's anti-slop waivers (the hero's volt rule, Space Grotesk). Copy is unchanged apart from nav labels (the brief's legal constraints hold). Still zero JavaScript and zero external requests. Impeccable detector (controls 7/0, static + rendered at 1280 and 390, light and dark): 200 unwaived -> 54, all of them the two waived brand devices; two identical runs. Operator: "ship the site cleanup, keep the rule and the font".

<h2>Scope</h2>
|
|
<div class="section-body">
|
|
<p class="detail-lede">An application is never just the app. It is the client binary, the API behind it, the data model, the release train, and the operational story for what happens at 2 a.m. when something breaks. We take the whole problem.</p>
|
|
<ul class="detail-list">
|
|
<li>
|
|
<h3>Native mobile (iOS & Android)</h3>
|
|
<p>Native and cross-platform mobile applications, from first submission through App Store and Play submission, staged rollouts, and OTA updates. Device integration when the app talks to hardware the firm also designed.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<h3>Web and desktop applications</h3>
|
|
<p>Internal tools, operator consoles, customer portals, and desktop utilities. Chosen for the job rather than for fashion — plain served HTML is a legitimate architecture.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<h3>Backend and APIs</h3>
|
|
<p>Service design, data modeling, authentication, and integration with the systems a client already runs. Documented interfaces and versioned contracts so the application and its backend can move independently.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<h3>Release engineering</h3>
|
|
<p>Build pipelines, signing, provisioning, store review handling, crash reporting, and telemetry. An app without a release pipeline is a prototype.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<h3>Operation and maintenance</h3>
|
|
<p>Post-launch retainers cover OS-compatibility updates, store policy changes, dependency upkeep, and capacity. Applications decay quietly when nobody owns them; we keep the ownership explicit.</p>
