OpenAI Integration in Derby
Integrating OpenAI models into Derby applications, where the dependency behaves unlike any other you have. The model can change underneath a working feature, and without a set of examples you check against, a shift in quality is noticed by customers rather than by you — so evaluation matters more than the integration code.
Why this comes up
The problem
A feature that worked well in testing has quietly degraded, and nobody can say when or by how much.
What you get
What we deliver
- Model versions pinned rather than tracking whatever is current
- An evaluation set built from real cases, run before any model change
- Cost controlled per request, since token use varies with input
- Failures and rate limits handled with backoff rather than surfacing to users
- Outputs validated structurally where downstream code depends on their shape
- What is sent reviewed, so customer data is not included without a decision

Working in Derby
East Midlands
Derby is an engineering city — aerospace, rail and automotive supply chains — so the work here skews toward integration with existing plant systems, quality and compliance workflows, and reporting that has to stand up to audit.
Most work here involves connecting shop-floor and plant systems to reporting the rest of the business can actually read, plus quality and compliance workflows that have to survive an audit.

OpenAI Integration in Derby — common questions
- Why pin the model version?
- So behaviour does not change without your involvement. Pointing at a moving alias means an upgrade lands in production unannounced, and the first sign is usually a support ticket — pinning turns that into a change you schedule and test.
- What should the evaluation set contain?
- Real cases with known good answers, including the awkward ones. Twenty examples drawn from actual usage tells you more than a large synthetic set, and running them before a model change converts an unknown into a measured difference.
- How is cost controlled?
- By limiting what goes in. Token cost scales with input, so a feature that sends an entire document where a relevant section would do is paying repeatedly for the difference — and unbounded inputs from users are a cost exposure as well as a quality one.
- What about the data being sent?
- It should be a deliberate decision rather than a side effect. Whether customer data leaves your systems, what your terms say about it and what the provider's retention position is are all questions worth settling before launch, since answering them afterwards tends to follow somebody asking the question externally.
- Do you work with businesses across Derbyshire?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout East Midlands, including Derby and the surrounding Derbyshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Derby businesses do you usually work with?
- Most work here involves connecting shop-floor and plant systems to reporting the rest of the business can actually read, plus quality and compliance workflows that have to survive an audit. Beyond that we work across Advanced Manufacturing, Aerospace, Rail Engineering, Automotive and Logistics.
- Do you cover the areas around Derby?
- Yes — we work throughout East Midlands, including Nottingham, Leicester, Loughborough, Birmingham. Derby is an urban area of roughly 260,000+, and we take on work across the wider Derbyshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
