About us

Dramatic Software Co is a software development consultancy based in Glasgow, Scotland. We’ve been in business since 2013, designing bespoke systems for clients with problems that off-the-shelf software doesn’t solve. We work across the full development lifecycle, from initial requirements through to delivery and long-term maintenance.

Our principal consultant, Andrew Forrest [linkedin/andrewf], is a software architect and technical lead with 30 years of industry experience.

What we do

We specialise in business-critical systems where reliability, performance, and longevity matter.

Our practice covers the whole software stack, from infrastructure and data through to user interface design. So we can build systems that users find intuitive, running cost-effectively, built around what the business really needs.

We’ve worked across industries including logistics, energy management, and telecoms. Our experience spans:

• Line-of-business and operational management systems
• Security-focused development and vulnerability remediation
• Performance analysis, optimisation and architecture review
• Front-end engineering (Angular, React, TypeScript)
• Backend and infrastructure (.NET, Kotlin/Java, SQL, cloud platforms)
• Long-term technical stewardship of complex, evolving systems

See our case study for a concrete example.
