About · Queensland, Australia-wide
Based in Queensland, working with businesses across Australia. Cloud infrastructure, business reporting, system integration and websites.
CloudScale Forge builds the software that larger companies get from an internal IT team: reporting that pulls from every system at once, internal apps for specific jobs, connections between software that doesn't talk, and the infrastructure underneath it.
The work is deliberately small in scope and quick to deliver. Jobs are quoted as one fixed price and measured in days or weeks. There are no retainers required, no minimum terms, and no layers of account management between you and the work.
Everything is built to be handed over. It runs on your own accounts, it's documented for whoever comes next, and the code is yours.
Background
Building and running business systems on Amazon Web Services — databases, applications, networking and backups.
Experience running systems under formal security standards, the kind large customers audit their suppliers against. Private networking, controlled access and tested backups are the default here, not an upgrade.
Extracting information from accounting, sales, stock and operations systems, and turning it into figures people can act on.
Connecting AI tools to business systems with defined limits on what they can see and do, rather than staff pasting company information into public chatbots.
Written records of how everything works, so the systems can be maintained by anyone with the right skills.
Who we work with
The industry matters less than the situation, but these come up often.
Payback calculators, quoting tools, job tracking, and reporting across systems that don't share data.
Stock and accounting figures that disagree, and month-end reporting that takes days to assemble.
Progress claims, job costing, and cash flow timing across the life of a job.
Job costing, machine time, and getting production floor data into the office systems.
The administration around billable work, and reporting on where time actually goes.
Three or four separate systems that don't share information. At least one spreadsheet doing a job it wasn't designed for. A decision maker who can approve work without a long internal process. And a preference for something delivered in weeks rather than a project that runs for a year.
