Software Development
Custom Software Development for BC Businesses
Purpose-built applications, dashboards, APIs, and internal tools designed around your workflows — not the other way around.
What makes our Software Development work
Software that fits your workflow
Off-the-shelf tools make you work around them. We build around you — your data model, your processes, your terminology — so adoption is immediate and natural.
Full-stack from design to deployment
Frontend, backend, database, and infrastructure. One team owns the whole stack, so nothing falls between the cracks and nothing gets blamed on "the other team."
Built to scale
We design architecture that handles your current needs and your next three years of growth. No painful rewrites six months after launch because we cut corners on the data model.
Transparent progress, every week
Weekly check-ins, staging environments, and working software at every milestone. You see and test real features as they're built — not just status reports.

How it works
Scoping
We run a requirements workshop to define what gets built, what's out of scope, the technical architecture, and the milestones. You get a fixed-price proposal before a line of code is written.
Design
UI mockups, data model, and API contract designed and approved by you before development begins. You see the full product before we build it.
Build
Iterative sprints with staging deployments at every milestone. Test real features as they're built. Automated tests written alongside every feature.
Deploy & support
Production launch with monitoring, documentation, and a handover session for your team. Ongoing support retainer available for updates and feature additions.
What's included
Why Digital Vancouver
One accountable team
Strategy, design, and engineering under one roof. You work directly with the people building your project — no account managers, no handoffs, no finger-pointing.
BC-based and invested in your success
We're local. Available in person across Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley. Invested in your long-term success, not just the next invoice.
Lean rates that make sense
No big-agency overhead. We run a lean, efficient team — which means pricing that's realistic for BC businesses at every stage, with full transparency before work begins.
Frequently asked questions
How do you price software projects?
Fixed-price for scoped projects with defined deliverables. Time-and-materials for exploratory work or ongoing retainers. We give you a detailed breakdown before any work begins so you know exactly what you're paying for.
How long does a custom software project take?
Most projects run 6–16 weeks depending on complexity. Simple internal tools or dashboards are typically 4–8 weeks. Full-featured web applications are usually 10–16 weeks.
Can you integrate with our existing tools?
Yes — CRMs, ERPs, payment processors, accounting software, and any API-accessible system. We design integrations from the start, not as an afterthought.
Do you build mobile apps?
We build responsive web applications that work excellently on mobile. Fully native iOS/Android development is available on request — ask us about your use case.
Can you take over an existing codebase?
Yes. We audit, document, and extend existing codebases regularly. We'll give you an honest assessment of the technical debt and a clear plan for moving forward.
