Services

Build. Run. Advise.

Everything we do falls into three buckets: building software, running organisations and projects, and giving straight advice on ICT. Most clients end up using more than one.

Build

Software & web apps
Build

Software development

Purpose-built tools designed around how your organisation actually works — not the other way around. Lean, maintainable, documented, and handed over properly. We build for the long haul: software made to last, not made to bill.

Build

Web app development

Modern installable web apps (PWAs) that run on any phone, tablet or computer — online or offline — without app stores, per-seat licensing or forced upgrades. One codebase, every device, and updates that roll out instantly.

In production

A complete rostering & team communications platform, designed, built and operated by Arclight for a Canberra sporting venue.

It runs the venue's day-to-day staffing end to end — and it's the best example of how we work: one focused tool, no bloat, built around the people who actually use it.

  • Live rostering with staff availability and shift swaps
  • Automatic SMS and in-app shift notifications
  • Built-in team chat with read receipts
  • PIN-secured logins for every staff member
  • Installs like an app on any phone — no app store
  • Real-time sync across every device, cloud-hosted and secure

Need something like this? We design and build platforms tailored to your organisation — rostering, memberships, bookings, communications, whatever the job needs.

Run & Advise

Management & consulting

Building the tool is half the job. The other half is running the project, the club or the systems around it — and that's where most outfits hand you back the keys and leave. We stay for that part.

Run

Project management

End-to-end delivery of technical and organisational projects — yours, or the one we're building for you.

  • Scoping, planning and realistic scheduling
  • Vendor and contractor coordination
  • Budget, risk and issue tracking
  • Stakeholder and committee reporting
  • Rollouts, migrations and go-lives
Run

Club & organisation management

Hands-on administration for sporting clubs, associations and community organisations.

  • Membership systems, renewals and records
  • Competition and event administration
  • Rostering, staffing and volunteer coordination
  • Committee, governance and constitution support
  • Communications, newsletters and member updates
  • Booking, POS and payment platform administration
Run

Social media management

Keeping your organisation visible and sounding like itself — day to day, or set up and handed back to you.

  • Account setup, cleanup and consistent branding
  • Content planning and posting schedules
  • Event, competition and promotion campaigns
  • Comment, review and message monitoring
  • Facebook, Instagram and Google Business listings
  • Plain-English reporting on what's actually working
Advise

ICT consulting

Independent, plain-English advice — focused on the cheapest thing that actually works.

  • Systems reviews and honest recommendations
  • Buy vs build decisions, without the sales pitch
  • Platform selection, setup and integration
  • Trimming subscription and licensing waste
  • Backups, security and access done sensibly
  • Training, handover and documentation
