Operations software by people who have run it.

Basecourse builds the systems a contracting or industrial company runs on: dispatch, plant, procurement, quantities, HR. Built on the ground, around how your people already work.

Roads fail from the base up. So do operations.

A base course is the load-bearing layer beneath a road's surface. Lay it clean and level, and the pavement goes down in one pass. We lay that layer for your company, so the operation on top of it runs without hiccups.

Road cross-section: a truck bumps over uneven ground, a level base course is laid on it, the surface goes down over that in one pass, and trucks then run smoothly on top.
Base course: what we build Surface: your operation

Built inside a working contractor.

Basecourse started inside COPRI, a Kuwaiti road contractor founded in 1969. Every system here began as a real problem at the plant, on site or in the accounts office, and went into daily use there before we offered it to anyone else.

How we work

We never design software in a room and hand it over. We go and see how the work is done, then build to that.

  1. 01

    Discover

    We start where the work happens. Either you hand us a clear intake, or we walk the process with your people at the plant, on site and in the office. You get a written findings document and a scoped, priced plan: what to build first, and why. Fixed fee. The document is yours either way.

  2. 02

    Build

    We build in stages and put each one into use early. Your people shape it while it is still cheap to change.

  3. 03

    Run

    Hosting, support and changes after go-live. The system keeps up as the operation changes.

Happy with your accounting system? Keep it.

SAP, Odoo, QuickBooks or anything else: we build around it and feed it clean data. We replace a system only when you ask us to. Our job is to close the gaps where money and time leak between your systems, your sites and your paper.

Arabic and English, properly right-to-left.

Every system we build runs in both languages. The dispatcher at the plant and the engineer on site work in Arabic. The accounts office works in English. Same system, same data.

In pilot

Takeoff and tender quantities, as a service.

Send us a drawing set in PDF, DWG or DXF. We return measured quantities traced to the geometry and checked against your bill of quantities, with every assumption listed so you can change it. Buildings and roads. Running now with a small number of pilot projects.

Your data

Each client's system runs on its own database and its own accounts. Nothing is shared between clients. Data & security
