Timeline & process
A lean MVP is often shippable in 8–16 weeks. Mid-size systems with several modules and integrations typically take 4–8 months. Complex ERP, AI platforms or multi-tenant SaaS can take 12–24 months. Two-week sprints deliver usable increments, not only a big-bang release. Phases: https://www.groenewold-it.solutions/en/duration
Project duration guideAfter an initial meeting we produce a concept, then develop in two-week sprints with regular demos. You keep visibility and can give feedback early. Transparency and direct communication are part of the delivery model.
Often yes. Small projects or extensions can start within a few days. Larger programmes typically need 1–2 weeks lead time for concept and team setup.
Quality & location
Yes. The team is based in Leer, East Frisia, and we do not use offshore teams. That supports GDPR-aligned data handling, German-language communication in your timezone, and short feedback loops. Location: https://www.groenewold-it.solutions/en/locations/leer
Leer location pageWe pick tools for the job: React, Next.js, Laravel, .NET, Delphi, Flutter, Python and more—matched to your landscape rather than a dogma. Overview: https://www.groenewold-it.solutions/en/technologies
Technology catalogueThrough code reviews, automated tests (unit, integration, E2E), CI/CD pipelines and security checks. Quality work sits in every sprint, plus documentation for long-term maintainability.
Questions about our approach?
We'd be happy to explain how we would implement your project.

Yes: long-term contracts with SLAs, regular updates and emergency support. Many clients have stayed more than 10 years. Service: https://www.groenewold-it.solutions/en/services/software-maintenance
Software maintenance serviceYes, after a code audit. We take over third-party software, stabilise it, document it and continue development. We also recover failed projects from other vendors.
Software rescueYes. You receive complete source code and documentation. We hand over cleanly and can train your team. You are not locked in—though many clients choose to stay.
