Public sector and nonprofit software development
Software development for government agencies, municipalities, public bodies, universities and nonprofits: citizen portals and digital services, case management, grants and permits, legacy modernisation, open data and reporting, and donor and volunteer management, accessible to WCAG 2.2, Section 508 and EN 301 549, with dedicated developers for your team or a project delivered end to end.
What we build for the public sector and nonprofits
Citizen portals and digital services
Online forms, applications, payments and status tracking that replace paper and phone queues, designed with residents and tested for accessibility.
Case management
Cases, tasks, documents and deadlines for social services, inspections, licensing and complaints, on Dynamics 365, Salesforce or a system of your own.
Grants and permits
Applications, eligibility checks, reviews, awards and reporting for grant programmes, and permits and licences issued and renewed online.
Legacy modernisation
Older systems moved to supported platforms in stages, with data migrated and reconciled, and the old system retired only once the new one has proved itself.
Open data and reporting
Open data portals, public dashboards and statutory reports produced from one source.
Nonprofit systems
Donor management, fundraising, volunteers and programme outcomes on Salesforce Nonprofit Cloud, Dynamics 365 or a platform of your own, with online giving.
Hire public sector developers

Public sector software development projects
A defined piece of public sector software development with a scope, a fixed plan and a named lead on our side who owns the result and reports progress in your channels.
Ongoing public sector software development
Public sector software development as a continuing service: the same people every month, a backlog you prioritise, and hours you can see in our portal and on the invoice.
The dedicated team page explains how specialists join your team, and the outsourcing page covers project delivery, take-overs and how we charge.

Services everyone can use
Public services must work for everyone, so every page is built and tested to WCAG 2.2 AA with screen readers and keyboards, written in plain language, and checked on the phones residents actually use.
Public data stays in the region and cloud the authority requires, access is limited and logged, and the security controls and documentation a public body asks for are prepared as part of the work.

Questions about public sector software development
Can you meet our accessibility requirements?
Yes. We build to WCAG 2.2 AA, which underlies Section 508 in the US and EN 301 549 in Europe, test with automated tools, screen readers and keyboards, and document conformance for what we deliver.
Can you work beside the supplier that holds our contract?
Yes. Our specialists can join the team of the supplier or integrator that holds the contract, inside their method, environments and ticket queue, or take a defined part of the work under a contract of your own.
How quickly can public sector developers start?
When the right public sector developer is available, the start is gated only by your interview and the NDA and IP assignment. Otherwise we run a search, which typically produces candidate profiles within two to three weeks, and nobody starts until you have said yes.
How do we hire public sector developers through BigTree108?
Tell us the work, the seniority and the hours you need. We propose one or two people with their profiles, you interview them the way you would interview your own hire, and you sign one agreement with BIG TREE 108 LLC and receive one invoice a month.
Who owns the work they produce?
You do. Every specialist has a signed contract with BigTree108 that assigns all work product to the company, and our agreement with you assigns it onward. Code, designs and documents are delivered into your own repositories and tools, not kept where only we can change them.
Building a public service?
Tell us the service, the people who use it and the work. You get an answer within one business day: candidate profiles or a plan for the work.
