Proof of Concept in Derry
Answering whether something is technically possible before a Derry business commits to building it. A proof of concept tests feasibility rather than desirability — can this integration work, will this model be accurate enough, can this run at the volume we need.
Why this comes up
The problem
Projects get approved on the assumption that the hard technical part will work out. Six months in, the integration turns out to be impossible and the budget has already been spent proving it.
What you get
What we deliver
- One specific question defined, with a stated threshold for what counts as a yes
- A timeboxed build aimed only at answering it
- Realistic conditions — real data volumes and real system constraints, not a clean demo
- A written answer including the caveats and what remains unproven
- Code treated as disposable, since a proof of concept is not a foundation
- A recommendation on whether and how to proceed to a real build

Proof of Concept in Derry — common questions
- How is this different from an MVP?
- An MVP tests whether users want something and goes in front of real users. A proof of concept tests whether it can be built at all and usually never leaves the team. Confusing them is how businesses end up shipping throwaway code to customers.
- Can the code become the product?
- It should not, and treating it that way is a well-known trap. Proof of concept code is written for speed with corners deliberately cut. Building on it means inheriting every shortcut into production.
- How long should it take?
- Two to six weeks, timeboxed. The value is a fast answer, and an open-ended proof of concept has quietly become a project without anyone deciding to fund one.
- What if the answer is no?
- Then it succeeded, at a fraction of the cost of finding out later. A clear no with the reasons documented is a good outcome, and we will report it plainly rather than proposing more work to keep trying.
- Do you work with businesses across County Londonderry?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Northern Ireland, including Derry and the surrounding County Londonderry area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Derry businesses do you usually work with?
- Cross-border trading systems for businesses working into Donegal, and manufacturing tooling for the north west. Beyond that we work across Manufacturing, Healthcare, Higher Education, Digital and Tourism.
- Do you cover the areas around Derry?
- Yes — we work throughout Northern Ireland, including Belfast, Lisburn. Derry is an urban area of roughly 85,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Londonderry region rather than the city boundary alone.
