Column | Code

I build the systems I wish existed when I needed them.

Column and Code isn't an agency. It's what happens when an operator gets tired of software that doesn't work and decides to build his own.

The Story

I started my career in operations, managing workflows, chasing down bottlenecks, and watching teams lose hours every week to processes that should have been automated years ago.

When I went looking for software to fix it, everything I found was either too generic (built for everyone, perfect for no one) or too expensive (enterprise pricing for a 15-person company). So I learned to build it myself.

CureCore, our pharmaceutical manufacturing company, now runs entirely on software I designed from scratch. Inventory tracking, production scheduling, batch management, cost analysis, P&L dashboards. All of it custom, all of it built around how we actually operate.

“The businesses who need custom software the most are the ones who can least afford to get it wrong.”

That experience changed everything. The $1M–10M companies with 5–50 employees can't survive a six-figure failed implementation. They need someone who understands their reality.

That's why Column and Code exists. I build the systems I wish someone had built for me, and I build them for businesses like yours.

Operator First

I don't just write code — I run businesses. CureCore, Meridian Shield, and Column and Code all run on systems I built myself. Every solution I create is informed by the reality of running an operation, not just the theory of building software.

Faster reporting

Managing pharmaceutical manufacturing with spreadsheets and disconnected tools. Batch records were manual, inventory counts were unreliable, and production scheduling lived in one person's head.

Custom ERP built from scratch
Real-time inventory & batch tracking
Production scheduling + P&L dashboards
Automated batch record generation

Result

Full operational visibility across the entire manufacturing pipeline — from raw materials to finished goods — with zero spreadsheets.

We went from chasing spreadsheets to running the entire operation from one screen.

More quotes per day

Quoting took 30+ minutes per job and required the owner to be involved every time. Material pricing was tracked in a spreadsheet that was always outdated.

Auto-calculated material costs
Professional quotes in under 5 min
Any team member can generate estimates
Live material price database

Result

Quoting time dropped from 30+ minutes to under 5. The owner is no longer a bottleneck — any trained team member can produce accurate, professional estimates.

My guys can quote a job before the customer leaves the shop. That never happened before.

Missed inspections

Compliance visibility

4hrs

Saved per week on admin

Inspections were tracked on paper and whiteboards. Missed inspections meant compliance violations, and there was no way to see the status of jobs across the company at a glance.

Zero missed inspections since launch
Paper-free field workflows on any device
Automated compliance tracking & alerts
Real-time job status across all sites

Result

Zero missed inspections since launch. Full compliance visibility for every client, every site, every schedule — all from a single dashboard.

We used to find out about missed inspections from angry clients. Now we catch them before they happen.
