Same pattern, different industry.
Legacy platforms, disconnected data, stalled AI pilots, and compliance pressure. The details change by vertical, but the coordination failures don't. Here's what we've seen in yours.
B2B SaaS
Your board wants AI features. Your engineers are stuck maintaining the monolith.
Mid-market software companies face enterprise-grade demands with growth-stage resources: SOC 2 audits blocking deals, AI features that competitors already ship, platform migrations stuck "in progress" for years. We build the engineering capacity you need without tripling headcount.

Your MES, ERP, and quality systems don't talk to each other. That's where we start.
Disconnected shop floor systems, siloed quality data, ERPs that predate your current product line. The pattern is always the same: fix the data backbone connecting shop floor to executive dashboard, then layer intelligence on top.

Claims processing shouldn't take longer than the incident it covers.
Most carriers run platforms built before the iPhone existed. Every major insurer says they want AI. Almost none have the data infrastructure to support it. The path forward: modernize the platform, fix the data layer, then build the intelligent systems that actually improve loss ratios.

The grid wasn't built for bidirectional power flow and distributed generation.
Utilities face growing demand, regulatory complexity, and wildfire liability. NERC CIP, state PUC requirements, and safety mandates shape every architecture decision. You need a team that ships production software inside those constraints.

FDA, HIPAA, GxP, FHIR. The compliance is half the engineering.
HealthTech vendors, biotech and pharma R&D teams, medical device companies, and diagnostics labs face the same problem: ambitious AI roadmaps and unforgiving regulatory constraints. Ambient scribes that need Epic certification. Discovery models that need to reach the wet lab without breaking GxP. AI-enabled SaMD that needs a Predetermined Change Control Plan. RWE platforms that have to survive an FDA audit.

Every acquisition adds another disconnected system. The data fragments.
Acquisitions keep coming, each one adding another disconnected TMS, WMS, or ERP that needs to talk to everything else. The gap between AI interest and AI execution in logistics starts with fragmented data across every acquired entity.

The board wants AI. The mainframe is older than the engineers who maintained it.
Federal, state, and local agencies need senior engineers who can ship working software inside the procurement realities, the compliance regime, and the political weather you actually operate in. We rebuilt the platform that processes every U.S. military enlistment. The pattern transfers to UI modernization, benefits eligibility, and AI-augmented citizen services.

The specific challenges differ by vertical. But the forces creating them are the same across manufacturing, insurance, energy, HealthTech and life sciences, logistics, software, and public sector work. Understanding these patterns is the first step toward fixing what's broken.
Acquisitions fragment everything
Every add-on acquisition brings a different ERP, a different CRM, and a different platform. Suddenly you're running three versions of the truth and none of them agree. Integration isn't a nice-to-have; it's the prerequisite for every other technology initiative on your roadmap.
Compliance shapes architecture, not just paperwork
HIPAA in healthcare. NERC CIP in energy. State insurance regulations that vary by jurisdiction. These requirements don't just affect your legal team; they dictate how systems are designed, how data flows, and what you can and can't automate. Getting this wrong is expensive.
You need enterprise-grade engineering without enterprise-grade budgets
A $5M consulting engagement represents 1.7% of revenue for a $300M company. The math doesn't work. But the technology challenges are just as real as they are for a Fortune 500 company. You need a partner that can deliver senior expertise at a scale that fits your business.
AI doesn't work until your data does
Manufacturing floors run on disconnected SCADA and MES systems. Insurers operate platforms from the early 2000s. The data modernization work that precedes any meaningful AI adoption is the most underinvested layer, and the most important one.
What it's like to work with us.
Anonymized quotes from real clients across the industries we serve.
“I appreciated Tandem's ability to execute against a very mature software development process and project planning methodology. We had access to market-leading expertise, and that was extremely valuable.”
“The refreshed application that Made In Tandem built with us has enabled us to adapt quickly to the latest government reporting regulations, leading us to incur far fewer fines last year than our closest competitor.”
“We worked with MiT on a few projects over the years, and I found them to be one of the best dev shops I've ever worked with. Really excellent engineers all joyful to work with.”
“Made In Tandem is a rare breed of team that combines an unbelievable amount of sheer engineering skill with a superlative team-first attitude. We'd heartily recommend MiT to anyone desiring expert, custom-tailored solutions.”
