Our position
Advice first. Building second. Looking after it always.
Most software problems begin long before a line of code is written. A brief describes the wrong thing, a budget assumes the easy path, a launch date is fixed before anyone knows what launching involves. AWP IT Consulting exists to sit with you at that early point and help you make decisions you will not regret in eighteen months.
When the thinking is done, we carry on into the work itself: designing interfaces, building iOS, Android and web software, steering it through App Store and Google Play review, and then providing the plain, dependable IT support that keeps everything running afterwards. You deal with one practice from first question to fifth year of operation.
We are a small Edinburgh company and we prefer to say so. We will not pretend to be a department of two hundred. What we can promise is attention, written reasoning for every recommendation, and honest answers when the answer is “do less”.

How an engagement opens
We begin with a written diagnosis, not a quotation.
Before any estimate, we ask to understand the problem in your own words: who suffers from it today, what has already been tried, and what would count as finished. We then write back a short diagnosis that sets out the options as we see them, including the cheapest credible one.
That document is yours to keep whether or not you work with us. If it shows that an off-the-shelf product or a smaller change would serve you better, we will say so plainly.
Scoping worksheet
Sketch your brief in five minutes.
Tick whatever applies. Nothing is sent anywhere until you choose to carry the summary into the contact form. If you have accepted optional storage, your ticks are remembered on this device only.
Hours and expectations
What you can rely on from us.
We answer correspondence on working days, Monday to Friday between 09:00 and 18:00 UK time. We do not run an overnight or weekend service, and we would rather tell you that now than discover it during an outage. If your organisation needs round-the-clock cover, we will help you arrange it with a provider who offers it properly.
Every proposal names what is included, what is not, and what happens if circumstances change. You can read the full set of commitments on our delivery standards page.
