Enterprise Software Development
Typical engagement: $15k–$80k · 6–16 weeks
What this is
Ubikon builds internal platforms and multi-tenant systems — role-based access, audit logging and integration with your existing ERP and legacy APIs designed in from the start, not retrofitted. A typical build runs $15k–$80k across 6–16 weeks; larger engagements are scoped individually against the same line-item delivery data. Ubikon operates its own SaaS suite in production — including CoachBox, a live multi-tenant coaching platform — so tenant isolation and access control are working practice, not proposal language.
What you get
Concrete deliverables, not a vague promise.
- —A role and permission matrix agreed in writing before any code — every user type mapped to exactly what it can see and do
- —Integration adapters for the systems you already run — ERP, legacy internal APIs — documented endpoint by endpoint
- —Audit logging on every consequential action: who did what, when, and under which role
- —Separated dev, staging and production environments with least-privilege access as the default, not a hardening phase
- —A handover package your internal IT can operate: architecture decision records, a deployment runbook, full IP transfer
How we build it
Stack and architecture for a typical build.
Next.js for the application layer, FastAPI for service APIs and integration adapters, PostgreSQL with row-level security where the tenancy model calls for it. No proprietary runtime anywhere in the handover.
Pricing
Where the number comes from.
The $15k–$80k range above is priced from real delivery data across 300+ completed projects — not a day rate multiplied by a guess. A full itemized breakdown by phase is available on a scoping call, or get a rough one now from the calculator below.

Ubikon fixed-scope vs a big consultancy vs building in-house
Each column wins somewhere real — including one case Ubikon hands off deliberately.
| Ubikon fixed-scope | Big consultancy | Internal build | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price transparency | Fixed line-item quote in 48 hours; milestone invoicing in USD | Day rates and change orders — the total emerges as you go | Salary cost is visible; opportunity cost of pulled engineers usually is not |
| Time to first working software | A working build to open every week | Weeks of discovery and workshops before the first line of code | Gated on hiring — often months before a first internal release |
| Who you talk to | The senior engineer doing the work — no account layer | An engagement manager; the engineers sit behind them | Your own team: best context, but competing with every other priority |
| Lock-in | None — full IP transfer, mainstream stack, decisions written down | Proprietary frameworks and staffing that are hard to exit | No vendor lock-in, but knowledge concentrates in a few heads |
| Best fit | Scoped internal platforms where speed and ownership both matter | Certified compliance programs and organisation-wide change | Systems so core to the business they justify a permanent team |

Straight answers
What buyers ask about this service
How do you handle security without SOC 2 or ISO certification? +
Honestly: Ubikon holds no SOC 2 or ISO certification and will not imply otherwise. What you get is engineering practice — least-privilege access, separated dev, staging and production environments, audit logs on consequential actions, secrets kept out of the codebase — all documented in the handover so your own team can verify it. If your procurement process requires a certified vendor, Ubikon is the wrong choice, and says so on the scoping call rather than after the contract.
Can you integrate with our existing ERP and legacy internal APIs? +
Yes — integration-first is the default, not rip-and-replace. The scoping call lists every system the platform must talk to, each integration is priced as its own line item, and adapters are documented endpoint by endpoint so your team can maintain them. A system with no API at all can usually still be integrated through its database or file exports — and that gets scoped honestly up front, not discovered mid-build.
Who owns the code, and what happens if we part ways mid-build? +
You do — full IP transfer, including work delivered mid-engagement if the engagement ends early. The stack is mainstream (Next.js, FastAPI, PostgreSQL) with no proprietary runtime, and architectural decisions are written down with their reasoning at the time, so any competent team can take over without archaeology.
We are in a compliance-regulated industry — can you build for us? +
Probably not, and you deserve a straight answer: HIPAA-grade clinical systems and work requiring certified audit trails belong with a specialist compliance firm, and Ubikon will tell you that on the scoping call rather than learn regulation on your budget. Where the platform itself is not the regulated artifact — internal ops tooling adjacent to a regulated business — a scoping call settles which side of that line your project sits on.
