Custom software · New Brunswick
HR and onboarding, time and billing, project tracking and AI documentation tools, built around how your business actually runs. We start with a free assessment that puts a value on the problem before you spend a dollar.
What we build
Off-the-shelf software makes you work its way. We build the system around your crews, your paperwork and your customers, then host and maintain it for one modest annual fee.
Hiring paperwork, certifications, orientation and training records in one place, so a new hire is site-ready without the binder. HR and onboarding systems
Timesheets, job costing, quotes and invoices that flow from the field to the office without re-keying. Time, billing and invoicing systems
SOPs, procedures and quality documents generated from the manuals, drawings and standards you already have. AI documentation and process tools
Live progress, actions and handover tracking for crews on the ground. The same thinking that became Arbiter Completions. Project management and execution tools
Why a regional team
Contendo has been headquartered in Bathurst since 2007, building training, documentation and software for industrial and service businesses across the province and beyond. We know the seasons, the labour market and the way a family business in the North Shore runs differently from a plant in Saint John.
The assessment starts with a conversation, by video or in person, and a closer look at the spreadsheets, software and handoffs behind your work. If a build makes sense you get an up-front price. If it doesn't, we'll tell you.
Request your assessment
Tell us about your business and what you want fixed. We read every request before we talk, so the assessment starts with your real problem instead of a sales pitch. We'll reach out to you directly to set a time.
No cost. No obligation. No mailing list.
Common questions
Most of our clients have between 10 and 200 people. The test is not headcount, it is whether a repetitive, error-prone or spreadsheet-bound process is costing you enough that fixing it pays for itself.
Where it helps, yes. Many assessments start by video and move to a site visit once we know what we are looking at. We are a short drive from most of the province.
It depends on the problem, and we will not guess. The assessment puts a value on the opportunity first, then we quote one up-front development price and a modest annual fee for hosting, maintenance and support.
Often. Provincial and federal programs regularly support productivity, digital adoption and automation projects for small and medium businesses. We can point you to the programs that fit once we know the scope.
Tell us what is slowing your business down and we'll start with a conversation.
