    Why we're different

    Not a dev shop building it for you. Your logistics team, building with you.

    Most logistics software development companies quote you a six- or seven-figure fixed-bid project, build it behind a vendor wall, and hand it back. We staff dedicated senior engineers into your team. You own them, manage them, and keep them.

    The turnkey vendor model

    The big custom-software shops

    • Fixed-bid project, scoped up front, priced in the hundreds of thousands
    • Engineers walled off behind an account manager
    • 30–40% overhead for layers you never meet
    • Hand-off at the end, and the knowledge walks out the door

    The Full Scale staff-augmentation model

    Dedicated engineers, embedded in your team

    • $35/hr fully loaded, scale up or down as volume changes
    • Engineers in your standups, Slack, repo, and roadmap
    • No vendor wall and no PM tax, you manage them directly
    • 93%+ retention means the engineers, and the knowledge, stay

    Who you're working with

    Built by a founder who has shipped and sold real software

    Full Scale was founded by Matt Watson, a four-time founder and CTO with 20+ years in software engineering. He co-founded VinSolutions, the #1 CRM platform in the auto industry, acquired for around $150 million, and founded Stackify, a developer-tools company he later sold. He also wrote Product Driven, the engineering-leadership method every Full Scale engineer is trained on.

    Full Scale exists because Matt kept hitting the same wall as an operator: good products stall when you can't hire and keep good engineers. That is the problem we solve, and it is why we vet for the senior, product-minded engineers most staffing shops never find.

    Logistics software development services

    Engineers experienced across the logistics stack

    We don't sell you a pre-built product. We staff engineers who have shipped in these domains before and know where the operational landmines are.

    Transportation management (TMS)

    Load planning, carrier selection, rating and tendering, shipment tracking, and freight settlement built to run at scale.

    Fleet management

    Vehicle telematics, maintenance scheduling, driver and ELD compliance, and fuel and asset tracking.

    Warehouse management (WMS)

    Inventory and bin management, picking and packing workflows, barcode and RFID scanning, and labor and slotting optimization.

    Route optimization

    Multi-stop routing, dynamic dispatch, ETA prediction, and last-mile delivery planning under real-world constraints.

    Supply-chain visibility

    End-to-end shipment tracking, real-time location data, exception alerting, and control-tower dashboards.

    Freight & 3PL integrations

    EDI and API connections to carriers, brokers, and marketplaces, plus rate, billing, and order-management feeds.

    Compliance & security

    Engineers who build for uptime and clean data, not just a demo

    Logistics software runs the business in real time, so a dropped EDI feed or a slow API is a missed delivery. Our engineers have worked inside production systems that move real volume and treat reliability and data integrity as architecture decisions, not afterthoughts.

    Matt's take

    Why most offshore logistics teams fail, and how to not be one of them

    The mistake isn't going offshore. It's hiring the cheapest developer you can find and hoping the system holds up at volume. I call that cheapshoring, and in logistics it's how you end up with a brittle TMS that falls over on the busiest day of the year.

    Logistics software is unforgiving. You need engineers who understand that a slow route calculation is a late truck and a dropped EDI message is a lost order. That's a hiring bar, not a rate, which is the whole reason we accept under 3% of applicants and train every engineer on the Product Driven method.

    FAQ

    Logistics Software Development Services, answered

    Do your engineers understand logistics systems?
    Yes. We staff engineers who have built TMS, WMS, and integration-heavy systems that run real operational volume, and who treat uptime and data integrity as architecture decisions, not afterthoughts.
    Is this a fixed-bid project or a dedicated team?
    A dedicated team. We are a staff augmentation partner, so you get engineers embedded in your team at $35/hr, not a turnkey project quote.
    How fast can a logistics team start?
    Seven days from the first call to engineers in your standups, drawing from a pre-vetted bench.
    Who owns the code and the IP?
    You do, from day one. Our engineers work in your repositories under your process.
