Develop a difference

No two organisations are really the same, packaged applications are great for businesses that are similar to many other businesses; however where an organisation has a specific way of working, or a specific environment that is unique to their business, then developing a custom application is the answer.

Developing a strategic advantage through the effective use of software is a SAS^IT speciality.  Typically SAS^IT has been contracted to work with organisations on the analysis and design of specific solutions, and then their development and integration, enabling SAS^IT clients to create or maintain their competitive differentiation.

If your organisation has a strategic advantage, or a unique way of working, and you can't find the systems available that support that way of doing business, then look no further than SAS^IT. We will build a solution that matches your business, rather than forcing your business to match a package. 

Custom Software Development

SAS^IT’s  team of multi-skilled and committed development staff are experienced in the complete development life-cycle and will take your initial ideas and current business processes and turn them into business applications.  These applications will give you the functionality to run your business more cost effectively, efficiently and with the competitive edge that you require to succeed.

SAS^IT development specialists have experience across a wide range of NZ industries including Manufacturing, Finance, Insurance, Health, Retail, Waste, Oil, and Public sector.

We provide a full suite of Software Application Development services across several development languages.  Namely in RPG/RPG ILE (3GL), Synon now CA 2E (4GL), .NET and Java.

These services include

Support and Enhancement

As your business grows so too do your computer system requirements.  To ensure that you keep up with the challenges of your market and the demands of a growing business it is important that you have competent staff to support and enhance your computer applications.  SAS^IT has a team of very competent staff dedicated to this task.  We maintain a policy of having a minimum of two people fully able to support your business applications - one main support contact plus a backup person in case the main support person is not available.

 BP NZ

 “SAS^IT maintained and operated the BP Merchant system with 100 percent uptime over the last five plus years. SAS^IT successfully implemented a number of changes to the application and operating systems resulting in a faster and a more user-friendly system. The service provided is excellent – we could not ask for more.”

— John Machin, BP operations and project manager.

 Metrix

 “Given the evolving nature of our needs and requirement for dynamic support, Metrix would not have been able to progress the initial implementation of the Smart Metering solutions without SAS^IT providing the necessary IT skills. The continual developments meant the rate of change was challenging, but SAS^IT delivered when we asked. Not only did they manage hardware vendors but they also leveraged comms and database vendors. “SAS^IT has contributed significantly to the success of our project to date.”

— Blair Jones, METRIX
