Software Development & Business Systems Implementation
We build and implement software products for African organisations: Maduuka Bookkeeping, Medic8 Healthcare, Aqar Property Management, Longhorn ERP, custom systems, mobile workflows, and support.
Longhorn ERP — Enterprise Resource Planning
Chwezi's proprietary enterprise resource planning system, designed and built to serve mid-sized and growing organisations across East Africa. Unlike generic off-the-shelf solutions, Longhorn is configured to match how African businesses actually operate.
Longhorn covers the full spectrum of enterprise operations — from financial management and inventory control to HR, procurement, and project management. It includes dedicated Android and iOS mobile applications for modules where field access is essential.
With practical workflows, sensible defaults, and the flexibility to adapt to each organisation's unique requirements, Longhorn ERP brings structure and visibility to your operations.
Financial Management
General ledger, accounts payable/receivable, budgeting, multi-currency support, and comprehensive financial reporting.
Inventory & Warehouse
Stock tracking, reorder levels, warehouse operations, batch and serial number tracking, multi-location inventory.
HR & Payroll
Employee records, leave management, payroll processing, statutory compliance (NSSF, PAYE), attendance tracking.

A property management platform built for agencies managing rental properties on behalf of multiple landlords. Multi-landlord portfolio management, tenant tracking, lease management, and per-landlord financial reporting.
Medic8 — Healthcare Management System
A comprehensive healthcare management platform built for the way African facilities actually operate. Patient registration, clinical workflows, laboratory, pharmacy dispensing, billing with mobile money, HMIS reporting, and offline capability — all in one connected system with 30+ modules.
Website Development for Product and Company Presence
Website work supports the core software practice: product websites, corporate sites, documentation pages, and web applications that explain and extend business systems.
Chwezi still builds professional websites, but website development is no longer the front door of the business. We use it where it supports a software product, a company presence, a client portal, a documentation layer, or a wider systems implementation.
- Product websites and company websites
- Search engine optimisation (SEO) for visibility
- Performance optimisation for fast loading on all connections
- Security hardening and HTTPS implementation
- Web applications and client portals
- Mobile-first development approach
- Content, deployment, and handover guidance
