Most enterprise engagements are one of these three, and they carry very different risk. Naming which one you are in changes the estimate and the sequencing.
Your platform becomes the system of record and other systems consume it. That raises the bar on versioning, documentation and backwards compatibility, because a breaking change now breaks somebody else's product. We design the contract before the implementation and document it so a developer who did not build it can use it.
Pulling data from platforms owned by someone else, where the failure path matters more than the happy path. Where a supported API exists we use it. Where it does not, we use supported import and export routes rather than brittle scraping that breaks on the vendor's next release.
A legacy system the business depends on daily, which cannot simply be switched off. Usually the answer is strangling it - putting a new interface in front and moving functionality across incrementally - rather than a full rewrite. A rewrite is warranted when the old system blocks what the business needs next, not merely because it is old.
PixelForce built SuspectED, turning an ordinary smartphone into a forensic-grade tool for recording evidence in the field. Work like this is judged on what does not happen: the record has to be trustworthy, the chain of custody has to hold, and the device has to behave predictably when the connection does not. That pushes the engineering into integrity, storage and sync rather than features - which is the same discipline behind every enterprise integration we build.
Infrastructure work is judged on what does not happen. These are the four things we design for from the first architecture session.
More than 15 AWS-accredited engineers in-house, designing to AWS best practice rather than to whatever ran on the last project. That covers network design, identity, encryption, backup and the disaster-recovery position the business can actually live with.
Redundancy where it matters, graceful degradation where it does not, and monitoring that tells you before your customers do. 99.99% is a design target we architect towards, not a number we put in a contract and hope for.
Access control, tenancy and audit are decided before the first screen, because retrofitting them costs multiples of building them in. For regulated work, data residency and retention rules are designed into the architecture rather than bolted on afterwards.
100% in-house delivery from Adelaide. For enterprise work that matters more than usual: the people who designed the architecture are the people you call when something is wrong at four in the afternoon, and there is no time-zone gap in the middle of an incident.
The infrastructure and integration work behind platforms that other systems, and other businesses, depend on.
REST and GraphQL APIs designed contract-first, with authentication, rate limiting, versioning and documentation treated as part of the deliverable rather than an afterthought.
Connecting platforms that were never designed to talk to each other, with explicit handling for the case where a transfer fails - because that is where integrations actually break.
Network, compute, storage and identity designed to AWS best practice by an Advanced Tier Partner, sized to what the platform actually needs rather than to a template.
Threat modelling, access design, encryption and audit, plus the data residency and retention rules regulated work requires. Designed in, then reviewed regularly.
Moving off a system the business still depends on, incrementally, with a rollback at every step. We recommend a rewrite only when the existing platform genuinely blocks what comes next.
Observability so problems surface before customers report them, plus Post Launch Support covering monitoring, a critical-defect warranty and ongoing technical support.
Apple Best of Developers, Watch and TV App of the Year, ACS Digital Disruptor Gold, and Top Clutch App Development Company in Australia. The kind of recognition you cannot buy with a marketing budget - earned by shipping software people use every day.
The same canonical PixelForce engagement model behind 100+ shipped products and $1.5B+ in combined client revenue, applied to your enterprise platform. The 1-3-1 method runs through every conversation - one problem, three options with honest trade-offs across budget, timeline and scope, one recommendation. No Blueprint, no Build.
A free, no-obligation conversation to find the right path for your enterprise platform before you commit a dollar.
Everything you need to build with total confidence - a fully costed, designed plan with no scope surprises.
From approved designs to your live enterprise platform, built and tested at a steady sprint cadence.
We do not disappear at launch - monitoring, warranty, and an optional retainer keep your enterprise platform growing.
Selected work from PixelForce - built by the same in-house team you would be working with.
An AI knowledge system that consolidated seven years of product evolution, shipped in 4 weeks.
How we turned a smartphone into a forensic-grade field tool for recording biological threats, working with no network at all.
Enterprise Infrastructure questions from founders, operators and product leads.
Designing, building and documenting APIs that other systems depend on - REST and GraphQL interfaces, authentication and rate limiting, versioning so consumers do not break, and the documentation that makes an API usable by someone who did not build it. We also build the integration layer in the other direction, connecting your platform to systems you do not control through their APIs.
We map what has to move between systems, how often, and what happens when a transfer fails - because the failure path is where integrations actually break. Where a system has a supported API we use it. Where it does not, we use supported import and export paths rather than brittle scraping that breaks on the vendor's next release. The integration map is settled in Scoping and Design because it frequently reshapes the cost.
Architecture designed so that a single failure does not take the platform down, data is encrypted in transit and at rest, access is controlled and audited, and you can see what is happening before your customers tell you. PixelForce is an AWS Advanced Tier Partner with more than 15 accredited engineers, and we design to AWS best practice rather than to whatever ran on the last project.
Often, yes, and it is usually the better option. Strangling a legacy system - putting a new interface or API in front of it and moving functionality across incrementally - lets the business keep running while the platform changes underneath. A full rewrite is warranted when the old system genuinely cannot support what the business needs next, not merely because it is old.
Access control and tenancy are modelled before the first screen is designed, because retrofitting them costs multiples of building them in. That means role-based permissions, audit trails on the records that matter, encryption in transit and at rest, and regular security review. For regulated work we design the data residency and retention rules into the architecture rather than bolting them on.
It depends entirely on what the platform has to carry, so we quote an envelope rather than a number. Scoping and Design comes first, typically $35,000 to $65,000, and is where the architecture and the integration map get settled. We use the 1-3-1 method: one problem, three options with honest trade-offs, one clear recommendation.
Tell us what your systems have to do and what they cannot afford to do. We will come back with three options, honest trade-offs across budget, timeline and scope, and one clear recommendation.
