Custom Web Applications Built Around Your Business

When off-the-shelf software simply doesn’t fit—or costs too much.

What We Do

Tired of one-size-fits-all software? Most industry-standard applications are built to serve the masses—not your unique business. Which often means paying for features you don't need, struggling with rigid workflows, and trying to bend your processes around a tool that was never designed for you.

By working with North Sound Code, you'll get custom, web-based software that's lean, flexible, and created specifically for your precise requirements.

Instead of adjusting your business to fit the software, the software adapts to you—saving time, cutting costs, and giving you exactly what you need.

Industry software is built for everyone. We build apps designed for one: you.

Custom applications from the ground up— intuitive, scalable, and built with your users in mind.

Still running your business on spreadsheets? We take your Excel files and transform them into powerful, user-friendly web applications—accessible anywhere, scalable as you grow, and far easier to manage than endless rows and columns.

05

You Tell Us

From bold visions to everyday problems, we transform your needs into powerful, easy-to-use applications. Bring us your idea, or your "what if," and we'll build the app that makes it real.

Over 12 years of experience building reliable, user-friendly web applications for small and midsize businesses.

Who We Are

Based on Whidbey Island, North Sound Code is a developer-owned studio specializing in custom web applications shaped around the way your business actually works.

You’ll work directly with the people designing and building your software—without layers of salespeople or unnecessary overhead. Just thoughtful collaboration, straightforward communication, and dependable work.

We turn complex workflows, disconnected tools, and ambitious ideas into practical web applications.

What We've Built

Every project begins with a different problem. Some clients need to replace spreadsheets. Others need customer portals, operational dashboards, or entirely new platforms.

In every case, we build around the people, processes, and goals that make the business unique.

What We’ve Built01 / 08

Customer Portal, Reagent Catalog & Panel Designer Tool

Life Sciences Company

A robust customer-facing portal that integrates product access, educational resources, and a powerful design tool. At the heart of the solution is the Panel Designer, a custom-built application that allows users to build, share, and order optimized reagent panels tailored to their specific testing needs. The portal also includes a searchable reagent catalog for ordering and reordering products, along with secure login access for registered customers. To support customer education and product adoption, the portal features a centralized library of documentation and manuals for both hardware and software, as well as direct links to product demonstration videos. An administrative dashboard enables company staff to manage customer access levels and maintain content across the platform, ensuring a secure and personalized experience for each user.

Clinical Trial Search Tool

Nonprofit Health System

A clinical trial search app for a research institute within a major hospital system to streamline searching for clinical trials, allowing both patients and physicians to efficiently search and filter trials based on criteria such as medical condition, location, eligibility requirements, and trial phase—enhancing patient engagement and supporting research recruitment efforts.

Tenant Portal, Tenant Manager & Conference Room Booking Software

Coworking Facility

This tool manages all aspects of a coworking facility. It allows the owner to manage tenants, process fees, and run profit & loss reports. Tenants log in and manage their profiles, book the conference room and view/print their invoices. We also built a client directory and touch-screen conference room reservation system.

Shipping / Receiving Kiosk, Digital Signage with Plant Status Displays, Custom Reporting & Data Dashboards

Aerospace Heat Treating Company

For this project, we partnered with a heat treating company to develop a suite of integrated tools that enhance operational visibility and streamline logistics. The solution connects directly to the client’s Bluestreak QMS + MES software, which supports industries like metal finishing, powder coating, and heat treating with end-to-end process management—from quoting and order entry to real-time production tracking and certification generation. Our custom application reads and writes data to Bluestreak, enabling the creation of tailored reports and dynamic order displays shown on monitors throughout the plant. In the shipping and receiving area, we built a touchscreen kiosk that allows truck drivers to scan orders, instantly updating order status and information within Bluestreak. The system also supports the creation and management of Corrective and Preventive Action (CAPA) processes, helping the client maintain quality and compliance across their operations.

What We’ve Built05 / 08

Shipment Tracking & Billing App with EDI Document Creation and Submission

Transportation Company

For a leading LTL transportation company, we developed a comprehensive Shipment Tracking and Billing application that enabled the client to transition to EDI-based invoicing. This all-in-one platform manages every aspect of the pickup and delivery process, including bill of lading creation, customer and carrier account management, and invoice generation. It dynamically creates and submits EDI 210 and EDI 214 documents, calculates rates from over 9,000 airport locations using city and country codes, and provides real-time shipment status tracking. Customers can also access shipment updates through a web-based portal, while the system tracks costs and performance from a single interface.

What We’ve Built06 / 08

Human Resources Portal

Commercial / Industrial Electrical Construction

In the HR space, we built a centralized portal for an electrical services firm to support employee engagement and compliance. Electricians can upload and manage their certifications, while the HR team maintains a central repository of documents and training materials. The portal also features internal news and announcements, employee recognition tools, secure Microsoft 365 login integration, and a support ticket system. An administrative dashboard allows HR staff to manage all content efficiently.

What We’ve Built07 / 08

Change Order Portal

Commercial Door & Hardware Company

Our client was managing change orders across multiple disconnected spreadsheets, making it difficult to maintain visibility and control. We built a custom web application that centralized tracking, introduced an approval workflow, and provided real-time insight into dollars shipped, billing status, aging, and gross margin requirements. This solution streamlined their process and improved financial accuracy and accountability.

What We’ve Built08 / 08

Portfolio & Tenant Manager

Real Estate Investment Company

For a real estate investment firm, we created a Portfolio and Tenant Management application that simplifies property tracking and financial oversight. Users can capture and geolocate images of prospective investments directly into the database, manage tenant records including rent collection and security deposits, and calculate cap rates for their portfolio. The app also generates lease agreements, produces profit and loss reports, and integrates with a payment processor API to facilitate seamless financial transactions.

A practical, collaborative process—from the first conversation to long-term support.
