Co-development with the business side
You stay close to the problem, the decisions and the data. We shape the software with you instead of asking for a frozen specification.
Macrocyra co-develops working prototypes and production systems with business teams in industry, strategy, project management and financial services.
Work with us
We work with industrial teams, PMOs, strategy groups and Mittelstand companies to turn process knowledge into working software, without forcing a large programme first.
You stay close to the problem, the decisions and the data. We shape the software with you instead of asking for a frozen specification.
The first goal is a working system. When the idea proves useful, the same engineering discipline carries it into production.
With Chartered Accountants on the build team, we weigh cost, viability and the business case, not just whether the code runs.
How it starts
We map the decision, the workflow around it, who acts on it and where the data lives today. We start from your reality, not a blank specification.
You see a working prototype in the first weeks, not slides. The business owner reviews continuously, so the software stays close to the real process.
We run it against real examples and the awkward edge cases. Where an assumption is wrong, we change the model instead of papering over it.
The parts that prove useful become maintainable software, with tests, CI/CD and a clean handover. Not a prototype you have to throw away.
How we engineer
We run prototypes as proper engineering projects. Version control from day one, CI/CD pipelines we manage end to end, automated tests, infrastructure as code and observability.
Dataflow
Most business software work is really dataflow work: finding what matters, moving it cleanly between tools, and making decisions visible when people need them.
We start with the moments where better data changes an action, a plan or a commitment.
Inputs, models, roadmaps, financial views and operational records move between tools instead of being copied by hand.
A prototype only counts when the people doing the work can use it, question it and improve it.
Proof
The portfolio is not decoration. It is evidence that Macrocyra can turn complex methods, business workflows and product ideas into structured software.
Strategic innovation workflow software for roadmaps, portfolio choices, ecosystem mapping and AI-native strategy work.
Proof that deep strategy methodology can become structured, deployed software with clean data moving between tools.
A diagnostic that scores roadmapping and innovation maturity across six dimensions. It measures each from three angles, perception, behaviour and capability, to expose the gap between what leaders believe and what teams actually experience.
Built with IfM Engage at the University of Cambridge. A 60-minute survey becomes an interactive report with prioritised, evidence-based recommendations.
Project management for teams that need more structure than spreadsheets and less ceremony than enterprise PPM suites.
A portfolio build focused on the space between planning, delivery and the financial reality of projects.
About
Macrocyra is built around people who can read the business problem, the technical system and the financial reality at the same time.
A Chartered Engineer with a Cambridge PhD in strategic technology roadmapping and a long-running connection to the Institute for Manufacturing.
A team across Germany and the UK with decades of combined experience. You co-develop directly with the people who do the build, not a layer of account managers.
