07Technology

What we build on, and who stands behind it.

A supplier's technology choices decide what you can operate, who else you can hire, and what it costs to leave. They belong in an evaluation, not in a brochure.

Two different things get called a partnership. One is a programme you join, with an application and a review behind it. The other is a technology you happen to use. Only the first appears here as an accreditation — everything else is listed for what it is, which is the stack you would be inheriting.

01The stack

What you would be operating.

Grouped by what it does. Nothing here is a preference we would impose — where an institution has standardised on something, we build on that instead, and say so before the contract rather than after it.

Cloud & infrastructure

  • Containerised delivery, so the same build runs identically in a government data centre and on a hyperscaler.

Data & platform

  • The default where nothing is mandated: open, portable, and no licence to lose at renewal.

Security & delivery

  • Source control, code review and CI. Repositories for public-sector work are held in the institution's own organisation, not ours.

02What this commits us to
  • We disclose the full stack before award, including anything licensed, so the running cost is known at evaluation rather than discovered at renewal.
  • We do not resell. Where a licence is needed you hold it, in your own name, and can move it.
  • Nothing here is a lock-in. Every system we build is deployable on infrastructure you control, and the exit provisions in our contracts say so.
  • We will tell you when a technology we like is the wrong answer for your estate. That has cost us work, and it is the point of saying it here.

Full disclosures — entity, contracting, data residency, security and handover — are on procurement, or write to ask@madsoftech.com.

Bring us the problem
nobody has solved.

A 30-minute technical briefing. We will tell you what we would build, roughly what it costs, and honestly whether we are the right people for it.
