Systems that pay for themselves

Six ways CIO1 builds around how your business actually works. Most projects combine more than one.

HIPAA | PIPEDA | LAW 25

Healthcare and legal work involves information that can't sit in ordinary systems. Compliance can't be added once something is finished, it has to be a property of the environment the work is built in.

CIO1 develops inside a HIPAA, PIPEDA AND Law 25-compliant environment. Anything built there is compliant from the start.

We build compliant applications within our own platform. We don't audit, assess, or add compliance to existing systems.

The Services

Industry Solutions

Systems built around problems that recur across a sector - job tracking in construction, matter management in legal, programme and member operations in non-profits.

Right fit when:

Your requirements are mostly standard for your industry, and you want a shorter build than a fully custom one.

API Integration

Existing systems connected so information moves between them automatically.

Right fit when:

The same information is being entered into two places, or two systems disagree and nobody's sure which is right.

AI Integration

AI built into your systems where it's useful. Often that's summarising and analysis, turning information you already hold into something a person can act on. Sometimes it's automation.

Right fit when:

People are spending hours reading, sorting, or summarising information before any decision gets made.

AI summarising and analysing information into actionable data

Custom Business Apps

Software built specifically for your operations, rather than adapted from a general-purpose product.

Right fit when:

Your team is working around your software instead of with it, or the process that makes you competitive is the one no tool supports properly.

Cloud Migration

Legacy databases moved into modern cloud environments, with your operational history intact.

Right fit when:

Your data is stuck somewhere it can't be accessed remotely, connected to other tools, or reported on properly.

Low-Code Development

Applications built on a low-code platform, which means faster delivery and lower cost to change later.

Right fit when:

You need something working soon, and expect the process it supports to keep evolving.

How we work

  • We understand the business first

    We work out what's causing the problem before scoping what to build.

  • We own the delivery

    Work arrives in stages you can review, so you're never waiting until handover to see where things stand.

  • We fit systems to reality

    Some processes should be automated, others work better as they are. Deciding which is part of the job.

Not sure which of these you need?
