1. Start with the bottleneck, not a feature list
A useful custom-software request describes work in plain language: staff re-enter consultation details, clients ask for the same status update, or a lead waits in an inbox until someone notices it. Bosseo’s public description identifies client portals, intake tools and internal dashboards as examples of possible builds. It also says the process begins with mapping who touches the workflow, where it stalls and what it costs. For a West Valley City firm, the municipality’s size does not prove that any particular workflow is busy. It does support a disciplined scope conversation: identify which office process serves your actual clients and staff, then test whether a small tool addresses that process.
Recommended approach
List one recurring manual task, its starting event, each handoff and its final destination. Ask Bosseo to distinguish a custom build from an off-the-shelf product that already fits.
