Platform Builds
The platform that replaces your SaaS stack.
Custom-built business platforms on Microsoft Azure. Framework-driven, fixed-price phases, 4–8 week delivery cadence. AI included by binding rule, not retrofitted. You own the production code, the data, and the infrastructure.
What it is
Tailor-made. Because the framework lets us be.
Off-the-shelf SaaS forces you to fit average. Custom-build agencies make you wait 9–18 months. The XCentral framework removes both compromises: every architectural decision pre-made by the methodology, every implementation detail tailored to how your business actually runs. Discipline at the framework level enables flexibility at the platform level.
The engagement model
Phases, not estimates.
Each phase ships something real before the next one starts. No “we’ll know more in six months” — every 4–8 weeks the platform takes a meaningful step.
- 1
Discovery
1–2 weeks
Workshops, SaaS audit, visual prototype, written platform spec. You leave knowing what your platform looks like and what it costs.
- 2
Phase 1 build
4–8 weeks
The platform exists. Core modules, real data, real users. Fixed price; ISO-aligned governance; ships behind your Entra ID.
- 3
Phase 2+
4–8 weeks each
Iterative depth — integrations, dashboards, automations, additional modules. Same cadence, same price discipline.
- 4
Retainer
Ongoing
Once the platform is steady-state, transition to retainer for evolution + Conscierra-managed operations.
How to engage
Two doors into the same framework.
Conscierra Platform Builds and XCentral Solutions deliver the same framework-built platforms. The choice between them is about the commercial relationship, not the technical product.
Existing Conscierra MSP client

Already on our Managed IT service? Platform Builds is the natural extension — same team, same framework, same governance. The platform sits above your service stack and consolidates the SaaS sprawl that grew up around it. One operational surface across MSP service + custom platform.

Indicative pricing
You know what each phase costs before you commit.
Platform Builds engagements typically run from a focused Phase 1 build for a small team through to multi-phase programmes for established mid-market operations — starting from around AUD $20K for Tier 1 Micro businesses. Contact us to scope against your business.
Detailed pricing for each tier and phase lives in the sales conversation, not on the public site. Discovery is free for qualified clients; you leave Discovery with the platform spec and the SaaS replacement map that justifies the cost — whether or not you build with us.
Coming from AI Enablement?
Strategy Workshop fee credits to Platform Builds.
If you started with the AI Enablement Strategy Workshop and decide the natural next step is a platform build, the Strategy Workshop fee credits against your Phase 1 quote (within 90 days). Discovery’s output transfers; you don’t pay twice for the same understanding.
You own your production code (mirrored to your Azure DevOps), your data, and your Azure infrastructure. We retain XCentral-Framework — the proprietary IP that built and continues to improve your platform.
