How we build and deliver
Sound familiar?

When your tools get in the way of your work.

Your team keeps work moving with spreadsheets, email and manual handoffs. When those workarounds become the process, custom software can give people a clearer way to act.

Disconnected systems

Connect the tools your team relies on, so information moves with the work.

Repeated data entry

Capture information once. Validate it and send it where it needs to go.

Spreadsheet dependence

Turn a process that has outgrown its workbook into a purpose-built application.

Work stalled between teams

Give the next person the information, ownership and tools to take action.

Approval bottlenecks

Make requests, responsibilities and progress visible in one clear workflow.

AI experiments without adoption

Build the integrations, evaluation and user experience that turn a prototype into a useful tool.

Solutions

Built around the work you do.

We develop the applications people work in and the connections behind them. Each build fits your process, from the first request through review, handoff and a useful output.

Business Applications & Portals

Custom workspaces for managing requests, resolving exceptions and completing the next step.

Automation & Integrations

Connect APIs and existing systems so records, decisions and handoffs move with the work.

CUSTOM BUILD / WORKFLOW EXAMPLE

From signed proposal
to project kickoff.

One example: a connected sales-to-delivery handoff.

Client portalCRM / PSADelivery workspace
portal.proposal.accepted

A client accepts a proposal in a custom portal. The agreed scope, contacts and dates become structured input for delivery.

Illustrative workflow

Hands-on development. Business understanding.

We carry the work from requirements and code through testing, deployment and ongoing improvement. Deep business experience shapes the details: who takes action, what needs review and what gets handed over. We build across Microsoft, Azure and Google environments to fit your existing systems.

AI Agents & Workflows

Build AI into the process to prepare work, check information and support action, with evaluation and human review.

Data & Finance Systems

Custom tools for reconciliations, planning and close: resolve exceptions and produce reviewed journal-entry outputs.

About LIRA Development

Engineering depth.
Operating experience.

We build the software people use to move work forward. Firsthand business experience helps us understand what that software needs to do.

FOUNDER / LIRA DEVELOPMENTRaymond Luening, founder of LIRA Development

Raymond Luening

Former global technology CFO.
Full stack developer.

Raymond brings decades in the technology industry to hands-on software development and AI at scale. His experience connects executive responsibility for business performance with the architecture, code and deployment needed to build the systems behind it.

Business processes all depend on clear responsibilities, connected information and reliable handoffs. That understanding shapes how he designs software.

A graduate of MIT Schwarzman College of Computing program, Raymond is certified in agentic AI strategy and development.

CUSTOM APPLICATIONSCONNECTED SYSTEMSAGENT WORKFLOWS
Explore the engineering

Understand the work. Encode the details.

Who can approve a request? What happens when information is missing? What must the next person receive? Those operating decisions become permissions, state transitions and business rules in the application.

WORKFLOWS / DOMAIN LOGIC / CONTROLS

Build across the whole stack.

The interface is one part of the system. We connect it to APIs, databases, integrations and identity, with cloud services behind the work. Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud are both part of the practice.

APPLICATIONS / APIs / DATA / CLOUD

Carry the code into use.

Development continues through testing, release and handover. GitHub keeps the code and changes organized; deployment configuration and operating guidance help the software stay useful as the business evolves.
