Most software vendors have never stood on a shop floor. We grew up on one.

Gaurav Engineering belongs to a family of industrial firms that has supplied Indian industry since the 1970s: lamps, quartz, and components for water treatment, printing, laboratories, and airports. We know what a plant looks like on a Tuesday afternoon, and we know what good software looks like. The work is joining the two.

What we build

  1. Custom software and web applications

    Internal tools, customer portals, and line-of-business systems, built to fit how your company works rather than how a template assumes it does.

    portals, internal tools, quoting, order tracking, dashboards

  2. AI and automation

    Document extraction, assistants that answer from your own records, and automation of the decisions that used to need a person. Deployed with controls and measured on real cases.

  3. Systems integration and data

    Connecting ERP, CRM, accounting, PLC and sensor data, and spreadsheets into one clean record, with monitored pipelines and reports people trust.

How we work

Revision table
RevDescriptionDeliverable
A DiscoverA week on site or on calls. We map the process, the systems, and the people, and write the problem down on one page. Problem statement, scope, and a fixed price for the next revision.
B PrototypeA working slice in two to four weeks, on real data, in front of the people who will use it. Running prototype, a go or no-go decision, and a build estimate.
C BuildProduction build in short cycles, with tests, documentation, and a demo at the end of every cycle. Deployed system, source code, documentation, and training.
D OperateMonitoring, fixes, and improvements on a monthly retainer, or a clean handover to your own team. Support agreement or handover pack.
