Codebaker services: custom software, apps, AI, IoT and IT consulting

When off-the-shelf software forces a company to change the way it works, the answer is to build on the processes that already exist. The source code stays the client's property.

• Custom software

  The starting point: analysis, design and development of bespoke applications.

• Custom ERP

  ERP systems built around the real flow of orders, production and warehouse.

• Custom CRM software

  CRM and apps for sales agents and field teams.

• ERP for manufacturing companies

  The manufacturing variant: bills of materials, work orders, shop-floor progress.

• Legacy software modernisation

  For when the old system still works but can no longer evolve.

• How much custom software costs

  What makes up the cost and what makes it vary, before asking for a quote.

Native and cross-platform apps and web applications, almost always integrated with the systems already in use: the delicate part is the integration, not the interface.

• Custom app development

  Business apps for operators, sales agents and end customers.

• App development in Bologna

  How we work with local companies, from on-site analysis to release.

• React Native, Flutter or native: how to choose

  The matrix by app type and the path we follow to a written recommendation.

• Flutter apps

  A single codebase for both Android and iOS.

• Native Android apps

  Kotlin, when full hardware access is required.

• Native iOS apps

  Swift, for the same reasons on the Apple side.

• Custom e-commerce

  Headless B2B and B2C, synchronised with ERP, price lists and logistics.

Many projects don't start from new software, but from making the systems a company already has talk to each other.

• Custom web APIs

  REST and GraphQL, middleware and integration with SAP, AS400/IBM i and legacy systems.

• ERP and e-commerce integration

  Orders, stock levels and master data aligned without double entry.

• Payment gateway integration

  Payments and reconciliation connected to administrative flows.

• Business process digitalisation

  Workflow automation and RPA for processes that today run on paper or Excel.

• Digitalising without disrupting processes

  The approach: start from how people actually work.

• Digital transformation for SMEs

  The wider journey, when the work isn't about a single process.

LLMs, RAG, AI agents and document processing applied to concrete business problems, with attention to where the data ends up.

• AI software for business

  Where to start and which use cases actually hold up.

• AI consulting

  Process assessment, quick wins and an adoption path.

• Data extraction from documents

  Invoices, delivery notes and orders turned into structured data.

• Data Alchemy

  Our proprietary Intelligent Document Processing product.

• Data security and the AI Act

  Company policies on AI use, GDPR and the European AI Act.

• AI training for employees

  Everyday use of AI for non-technical teams.

Data collected from the field and made usable: sensors, edge gateways, traceability and production indicators.

• IoT solutions for business

  The overall picture, from sensors to platform.

• Industry 4.0 and 5.0

  Production digitalisation and machine interconnection.

• Industrial traceability

  Batches, components and movements reconstructable backwards.

• Production KPI monitoring

  OEE, scrap and yield, measured on machine data.

• Industrial gateways

  Data collection from heterogeneous plants, including older ones.

• Dashboards and Business Intelligence

  ERP and IoT data turned into operational dashboards.

The infrastructure everything else runs on, and the ongoing care after release.

• IT consulting in Bologna

  IT strategy, tool selection and managed services.

• European cloud with Scaleway

  Cloud infrastructure with data that stays in Europe.

• Kubernetes and Docker

  Containerised architectures and CI/CD pipelines.

• Backup and disaster recovery

  RTO and RPO defined together, and regular restore tests.

• IAM software

  Identity and access management with LoginMaster: SSO, MFA, RBAC.

• NIS2 and cybersecurity

  Compliance for SMEs in the manufacturing supply chain.

• GDPR compliance

  Personal data protection by design.

• Evolutionary maintenance

  Software keeps changing after release.

• Testing and QA

  Functional, performance and security verification.

• Technical training courses

  Frontend, backend, DevOps and cloud for technical teams.

In most projects the starting point isn't a technology but a process that doesn't work: a figure re-entered three times, a warehouse count that never matches, a quote that takes days to go out. If any of that sounds familiar, the quickest route is to tell us about it: from there we work out together which of the areas above is really yours. You can also first look at how we work or browse the projects we have delivered.
