Custom software for Washington DC, federally-adjacent, audit-ready, senior team

DC custom software is mostly about compliance-aware delivery.

Washington DC's software-buyer profile skews different from typical US mid-market: nonprofits with audit-sensitive grant-reporting needs, trade associations with multi-tier membership management, federally-funded programs with FAR-flowdown compliance, government-services firms (subcontractors, vendors) selling into agencies, and lobbying / legal firms with audit-sensitive workflows. Compliance discipline matters more than feature breadth.

We are a Fairfax-headquartered firm with ISO 12207 (software lifecycle) and ISO 27001 (information security) certifications at the group level. Our security defaults, SSO/SAML, RBAC, audit logging, encryption at rest and in transit, secrets in proper key-management, align with what DC compliance-sensitive clients need from day one, not as retrofits.

Coverage of the DC metro is local: 25 minutes from our Fairfax office to Capitol Hill, K Street, Penn Quarter, Foggy Bottom, NoMa, Dupont. On-site discovery and milestone reviews routine. Pricing comparable to NoVA peer firms.

, Questions

DC custom software, questions we hear.

Where are you located relative to DC?
Fairfax, Virginia, 25 minutes from downtown DC via the Beltway. Reachable by Metro (Orange line to Vienna, Silver to Wiehle-Reston East). On-site discovery and milestone reviews in DC are routine.
Do you have federal contracting experience?
International public-sector at national-government scale (500K-employee Odoo rollout). For US federal-adjacent work we engage directly with federally-funded organizations and via teaming with prime contractors holding GSA / GWAC vehicles. Specific vehicle availability on request.
Can you build for trade associations and membership organizations?
Yes, membership management, dues billing, event registration, multi-tier membership structures, chapter-level financials, AMS-replacement projects. We've configured Odoo for several DC associations and built bespoke association-management platforms.
What about FedRAMP, CMMC, NIST 800-171 compliance?
ISO 27001 alignment maps to most of NIST 800-171. CMMC Level 2 certification is a separate (and substantial) compliance investment we engage on case-by-case. FedRAMP-authorized SaaS is a multi-million-dollar process beyond our current scope; for clients needing FedRAMP-authorized solutions we recommend AWS GovCloud + an authorized layer.
Cost?
Small builds $50K-$120K; mid-size platforms $150K-$500K; enterprise programs $500K+. Paid 2-week structured discovery upfront.

Build with a DC-local senior team across the bridge.

30-min discovery at your DC office, our Fairfax office, or video. Paid 2-week structured discovery → solution design + firm proposal.
