Software Development Company HoustonCompany Houston
IRPR builds custom web apps, mobile apps, and AI tools for Houston energy, healthcare, and logistics firms. Fixed-price projects ship in 12 weeks with senior engineers only.
IRPR is a software development company Houston businesses hire to build custom applications that handle real operational complexity. We ship web apps with React and Node.js, mobile apps with React Native, and AI chatbots using Python and LLM APIs. Every project is built by senior engineers who have shipped products in 50+ countries.
A typical project moves from signed agreement to production in 12-14 weeks. Fixed-price engagements range from $80K to $250K depending on scope and integrations. We build to compliance standards that matter in Houston: HIPAA for healthcare systems connected to the Texas Medical Center, SOC 2 for SaaS products, and PCI-DSS for payment processing.
Our Houston clients include energy service companies needing field inspection apps, healthcare providers building patient portals, logistics firms replacing spreadsheets with dispatch platforms, and real estate developers creating property management dashboards. Each project starts with a 2-week Roadmap phase that produces a fixed quote and technical specification.

Why Houston companies choose IRPR over offshore dev shops
Houston's largest industries run on custom software. Here is what IRPR delivers that generic agencies cannot.
The Texas Medical Center alone generates petabytes of patient data that off-the-shelf software cannot handle. Energy companies operate in environments with intermittent connectivity and extreme security requirements. Logistics firms at the Port of Houston need real-time integrations with customs and carrier APIs.
IRPR builds for these constraints from day one. Our engineers have built HIPAA-compliant systems for healthcare networks, offline-first mobile apps for oilfield inspection crews, and dispatch platforms processing 50,000+ loads per month. We do not learn your industry on your dime.
What separates IRPR from a typical software development company Houston
Most agencies staff projects with junior developers and bill by the hour. IRPR operates differently.
A Houston energy startup hired a generic dev shop to build a well monitoring dashboard. After 9 months and $340K in hourly billing, they received a product that crashed under concurrent user load and failed SOC 2 audit. They came to IRPR for a rebuild.
We delivered a new React and Go backend in 14 weeks for a fixed price of $185K. The system handled 2,000 concurrent users at launch and passed SOC 2 on the first attempt. The client still runs on that codebase 3 years later with zero major incidents.
- Staffed with 70% junior developers
- Hourly billing with no cost ceiling
- No compliance expertise on staff
- Timelines that slip by months
- Code that fails under real load
- Handoff with no documentation
- Senior engineers only on every project
- Fixed price quoted before build starts
- HIPAA, SOC 2, PCI-DSS built in
- 12-week MVPs delivered on schedule
- Load-tested to 10x expected traffic
- Full documentation and CI/CD pipeline
How IRPR builds software for Houston businesses
Every project follows a 4-phase process designed to eliminate surprises and ship working software fast.
Phase 1 is the Roadmap. Over 2 weeks, we interview your stakeholders, map your workflows, and produce a technical specification with wireframes and a fixed price quote. You pay a flat $15K for this phase. If you do not like the plan, you walk away with all the artifacts.
Phase 2 is Product build. Our senior engineers write code in 2-week sprints with demos every Friday. You see working software from week 4 onward, not a slide deck. We deploy to a staging environment you can test immediately.
What ships with every IRPR project
Every engagement includes infrastructure, monitoring, and documentation. No hidden deliverables.
When a Houston logistics company hired IRPR to build a carrier onboarding portal, they expected a web app. They received a fully instrumented system with error tracking, performance monitoring, and a CI/CD pipeline their internal team could use immediately. That is the IRPR standard.
- Source code in your GitHub or GitLab repo
- CI/CD pipeline on GitHub Actions or GitLab CI
- Sentry error tracking configured
- Datadog or Grafana monitoring dashboards
- Load-balanced AWS or GCP infrastructure
- Automated test suite with 80%+ coverage
- API documentation via Swagger or Postman
- Database migration scripts with rollbacks
- 30 days of post-launch bug fixes
- Runbook for common operational tasks
What we ship in this practice.
Oilfield Inspection App for an Energy Services Firm
A Houston-based energy services company needed a mobile app for pipeline inspectors working in areas with zero connectivity. IRPR built an offline-first React Native app with AWS AppSync for data sync. Inspectors complete 40% more inspections per day because they no longer drive back to upload reports.
Patient Intake Portal for a Multi-Specialty Clinic
A 12-location medical group in Houston needed a HIPAA-compliant patient intake system. IRPR built a Next.js web app with Epic EHR integration via FHIR APIs. Front desk staff reduced check-in time from 8 minutes to 90 seconds per patient.
Dispatch Platform for a Freight Brokerage
A Houston freight broker handling 3,000 loads per month needed to replace manual spreadsheets. IRPR built a React and Node.js dispatch platform with Samsara GPS integration. Dispatchers now assign loads in under 30 seconds, down from 4 minutes.
Property Management Dashboard for a Real Estate Developer
A Houston developer managing 2,000 apartment units needed a centralized dashboard. IRPR built a Vue.js frontend with a PostgreSQL backend and Stripe rent collection. The system processes $4.2M in monthly rent with automated late fee calculations.
Quality Control System for a Chemical Manufacturer
A Houston chemical plant needed a shop floor quality system integrated with Rockwell PLCs. IRPR built a React dashboard with Node.js backend that captures real-time defect data. The quality team reduced batch rejection rates by 22% in the first quarter.
B2B Ecommerce Platform for an Industrial Supplier
A Houston industrial valve distributor needed a wholesale ordering portal. IRPR built a Medusa.js ecommerce platform with customer-specific pricing and QuickBooks integration. The platform now handles 800+ orders per month with zero manual data entry.
Why teams hire us.
Fixed price, not hourly billing
Every project gets a fixed quote during the Roadmap phase at week 2. No hourly invoices, no scope creep charges, no surprise bills. If the scope changes, we price the change order before writing code.
Senior engineers only
IRPR staffs every project with engineers who have 7+ years of experience. No junior developers learning on your project. The team that builds your software has shipped products used in 50+ countries.
12-week MVPs, not 12-month projects
A Houston SaaS startup got a working product in 12 weeks from IRPR. The same scope was quoted at 9 months by two other agencies. We cut scope to the essential features and ship fast so you can start generating revenue or feedback.
Compliance built in from day one
HIPAA, SOC 2, and PCI-DSS requirements are designed into the architecture during the Roadmap phase, not retrofitted before an audit. We collect compliance evidence throughout the build so you are audit-ready at launch.
You own the code, the repo, the infrastructure
Everything IRPR builds goes into your GitHub organization, your AWS account, your CI/CD pipeline. No vendor lock-in. No proprietary platform. Your internal team can maintain and extend the software the day we hand it over.
Houston industry expertise, not generic software
IRPR has built software for energy companies dealing with offline field conditions, healthcare providers navigating HIPAA and Epic integrations, and logistics firms processing thousands of loads. We understand Houston's industrial economy because we have built for it.
Idea → Roadmap → Product → Release.
Every engagement runs through the same four-stage pipeline. Predictable by design.
