Accelerate your path to production.
How long does it take your organisation to ship a simple change? Is it a day? A week? Maybe even months?
You know that working in smaller batch sizes makes changes to your applications easier to reason about and deployment failures easier to recover from, but how do you move to smaller batch sizes when acceptance testing and other verification steps take seemingly forever?
It often feels impossible.
Sometimes you even know where the bottlenecks are - you just don't have the time or resources to address them.
This is where I can help.
Through my hands-on consulting, training and advisory practice, I help organisations like yours improve their software delivery performance.
Say goodbye to long lead times, bug-ridden software and frustrated users. Get in touch today to unleash the full potential of your teams.
Bespoke delivery diagnostics
Every team and application is different, and while the DORA metrics are useful as a self-evaluation tool, they can never tell you where your teams' specific bottlenecks are.
Working closely with your teams, I will help you identify and remedy the areas where your teams can safely and sustainably increase the rate at which they get software into the hands of users.
Our hands-on approach is very important to us - coaching teams on imaginary codebases solving fake problems leads to teams feeling lost the moment they're back at their desks. Let's skip that step and dive straight into the problem at hand. Working on real code bases, solving real problems.

What we do
KiteFrame use a set of practices and principles to build complex internal business systems and user-facing products in a fast yet maintainable way - continuously delivering bug-free code with confidence.
Domain-Driven Design
We believe that to build effective software in complex domains, tight collaboration is required between developers and the business. Say goodbye to your business experts having one context and your developers having another.
Test-Driven Development
In order to achieve to fast flow, it is absolutely essential that the development team have access to a suite of fast tests that are able to verify the behaviour of the system.
Continuous Delivery
Releasing relatively small increments more often reduces the risk of any one release, minimises the business impact of failed experiments and enables the acceleration of the development team.
Devops
With the tight integration of development, testing, operations and support, teams become responsible for the end-to-end delivery of business features, drastically reducing hand-offs between teams and increasing overall quality.
Full Stack Developers
Advising from the sidelines can only take you so far. To provide the largest benefit possible to our clients, we work alongside their existing teams, helping them to address problems as they arise.
Cloud
With the ever-increasing flexibility offered by public cloud service providers, businesses no longer have to commit to up-front capital investments. We help our clients leverage the power of the cloud, helping them focus on providing business value, not infrastructure.
