We're a Western Australian DevSecOps consultancy, delivering high quality software and advice.

You need software built.

You don't need the headache that comes with it.

If you've done this before, you would have seen budgets balloon, timelines slip, and 'finished' systems fall over the moment anyone touches them.

You've been burned before.

We get it. And we're here to fix it.

Let's talk

We've seen too much bullshit in this industry.

We've seen a 'big dog consultant' charge $60k for a full month of work. The catch? When asked to investigate, we found out they were only active for a single day.

We've seen local mining companies overcharged close to $1m through hidden fees. All because they were desperate to get a system built for their canteen.

We've seen honest service companies be fucked over by software providers who charged $2m for a $200k job. In the end, they even lost the IP.

These are not isolated incidents. These are symptoms of a model that rewards misaligned economic incentives.

Stop wasting your time and money.

Stop overpaying for mediocre work. Or worse, work that never gets finished.
Stop dealing with broken systems and unreliable partners, while your competitors move faster.
Stop exposing your business to legal or compliance issues because of dodgy contracts.

Stop gambling. Find yourself a partner you can trust.

A different kind of software partner.

We're Shipright Software.

Named after the shipwrights of old - craftsmen trusted with vessels worth more than fortunes. One bad plank meant everyone drowned. The whole trade was built on precision, accountability, and stakes that couldn't afford mistakes.

We apply that same standard to software.

We don't play scope games.

Fixed price means fixed price. No hidden fees. No hour padding. No endless negotiations on contract variations. We've been in the industry long enough to know that scope changes. And guess what? We plan for it accordingly. You'll know what you're paying before we start.

We build it right the first time.

No quick hacks. No band-aid fixes. Clean architecture. Maintainable code. Security from the ground up. Not because it's flashy, but because you're going to live with this system for years, and your business will depend on it.

We're people you'd want to work with.

We're a network of specialists—principal devs, ex-CTOs, forward deployed engineers. Working alongside the next generation learning from the best. When you work with Shipright, you get people who won't make you uncomfortable. People you'd want to have a beer with.

How our process works.

Step 1: Discovery Workshop

Before anyone writes a line of code, we map exactly what you need, why you need it, and what it will cost—up front, fixed, and in plain English.

Deliverables: Problem definition, scoped solution, delivery plan & fixed-price proposal.

Who's in the room: Two of our best, with you and your key stakeholders.

Outcome: A concrete plan you can take to your board, investors, or internal team.

No ongoing commitment. The workshop is free if you proceed with the build. If you decide to walk away, you keep all the outputs for a one-time consulting fee.

Step 2: Development Sprint · Fixed Price

We build it. You get regular updates, working software to review, and a team that delivers on time. No surprises or scope creep.

What you get: A working system, built right & on budget.

Step 3: Handover & Support · Ongoing

We hand over clean, documented code. We train your team (if you have one). And we're available for ongoing support or future sprints if you need us.

What you get: Full ownership of your software, and a partner you can count on if you need more work done.

What happens when you get this right?

Imagine a software partner who delivers exactly what was promised, for the price you agreed, on the timeline you aligned to.

You stop overpaying. You know exactly what you're getting and what it costs. No surprises. No "unexpected complexity" invoices landing on your desk.

You move faster than competitors. You've got a reliable partner building the systems you need to scale, while others are still untangling broken engagements.

You sleep better at night. No more worrying about hidden fees, scope creep, or whether the code will work when it matters.

Your business runs smoother. You unlock new revenue opportunities. And you've got a team you can trust to deliver when it matters. That's what working with Shipright looks like.

You don't need another developer who's going to disappear or blow your budget. You need a partner who delivers exactly what was promised, for the price you agreed, on the timeline you aligned to.
