External technical partner
Silvercore Consulting operates as an external technical partner for organisations that rely on bespoke, web-based software — from small and medium-sized businesses with critical internal platforms to larger organisations with complex systems. We bring particular depth in PHP-based platforms, alongside the wider web stack when the work demands it. Work is led directly by a senior consultant, not delegated to a delivery team. This is structured consultancy work — not agency delivery and not staff augmentation.
We design and build bespoke systems and integrations where correctness, longevity, and maintainability are non‑negotiable.
We stabilise and improve existing platforms that have become fragile, risky, or difficult to change safely.
For known systems, we provide scoped, calm stewardship: maintenance, incremental improvements, and dependable technical continuity.
All complex work begins with paid discovery, then proceeds in defined phases with clear decision points.
A standalone paid phase to establish context, risks, and a written scope. Delivery starts only once the context and objectives are properly understood.
Work proceeds in defined phases with clear outcomes, decision points, and written updates.
Engagements are designed to end cleanly, with handover notes and a clear path forward — without creating dependency.
Calm, structured, accountable delivery. Written scope, explicit assumptions, and clear outcomes — designed to reduce noise and protect system stability.
“Silvercore brought clarity and stability to a complex legacy system that was previously unmanageable.”
— CTO, Financial Services“A structured, no-nonsense partner. Their focus on correctness and long-term value is invaluable.”
— Director of Operations, Public SectorTo maintain direct senior oversight and delivery quality, work is intentionally limited to a small number of concurrent engagements. This ensures every client works directly with the consultant responsible for delivery.

Contact begins an assessment. If it looks aligned, the next step is a paid discovery phase to understand the situation properly and define scope. A short outline is enough.
