Yea DSA are specialists in providing business software for any company who need extra functionality that their existing software does not provide.
Many software packages do not provide everything that today's businesses require. This is where we come in - we can add these missing elements that will enhance your existing systems without having to replace what you have already.  Alternatively we can replace certain modules and keep what works OK for you. We have been in business for over 30 years and have provided our services to a multitude of Australian businesses - some have been with us since the start!  Our solutions are tailored to your EXACT requirements and are affordable, effective, totally functional and very easy to install and integrate into your existing operations.
DSA's core business is to develop custom software (also known as bespoke software or tailor-made software) that is specially developed for a specific organisation or other user.  As such, it can be contrasted with the use of software packages developed for the mass market.

Since custom software is developed for a single customer it can accommodate that customer's particular preferences and expectations.  Custom software may be designed in stage by stage processes, allowing all nuances and possible hidden dangers to be taken into account, including issues which were not mentioned or thought of in original discussions or specifications.

Forward thinking companies commonly use custom software for critical functions, including content management, inventory management, customer management and any other requirement that will provide the company with a point-of-difference; or otherwise to fill the gaps present in the existing software packages.

Custom software development is sometimes considered expensive compared to off-the-shelf solutions. This can be true if one is speaking of typical challenges and typical solutions. However, it is not always true; custom software development by a reputable supplier is often a matter of building a house upon a solid foundation and, if managed properly, it is possible to do this quickly and to a high standard. In many cases, off the shelf software requires customisation to correctly support the buyer's operations. The cost and delay of off the shelf customisation frequently adds up to the expense of developing custom software.

Additionally, off-the-shelf software packages come with high upfront license costs frequently running into significant dollars with the added issues of changing the software to meet the changing needs of the business. Typically an off-the-shelf implementation needs to be upgraded for compatibility every 2-4 years. Given the cost of off-the-shelf customisation, such upgrades also turn out to be expensive as a dedicated product release cycle will have to be earmarked for it.

DSA have, over the years, developed some significant custom software systems, for some well known Australian businesses, across a number of industries. These software packages are available as starting points for all our new clients. The entry point for all our software normally provides a close fit to an existing requirement. This makes the provision of the additional features a significantly low cost investment.
