1. Start with the workflow, not the feature list
Custom software is most defensible when the firm can identify a recurring manual task and explain where it stalls. Bosseo’s reference describes custom builds such as client portals, intake tools and internal dashboards, but the appropriate choice depends on your actual process.
Recommended approach
Bring one operational bottleneck to the review. Document who performs each step, which information is created, where it is stored and what happens when a handoff is missed. Do not begin by selecting a large feature set.
