Forge · Restoration · Custom builds

Software built around the way your business actually works.

Forge shows which relationships bring a firm its business. NLC Portals runs a restoration job from the first call to the drying log. When nothing off the shelf fits, we build it, and the code is yours.

What we do

Software, marketing, and a CTO when you need one.

Each one stands on its own. Hire us to run your ads without ever using our software, or bring in a Fractional CTO for a single decision.

Built and run by us

Marketing

Paid advertising on Google, Meta, LinkedIn and TikTok, with the creative, landing pages and reporting behind it.

  • Paid Growth: one platform, $1,800 a month
  • Growth + Content: up to two platforms plus content, $2,800 a month
  • Full Growth: a multi-channel program, $3,800 a month

Month to month, no setup fee, and ad spend billed separately.

Technology leadership & architecture

Fractional CTO

Senior technology leadership without another full-time executive.

  • Ongoing leadership of the roadmap and the team
  • Architecture for the systems that matter
  • A second opinion before an expensive decision

Close enough to the code to know whether the plan will work.

Platform examples

What we build looks like this.

Every portal is different because every business is different. These are modeled on real platforms we've delivered, with details changed and the idea intact.

Case study · Property restoration

From spreadsheets to one system that runs the business.

A property-restoration company was running on spreadsheets. Leads, jobs, budgets, and referral sources were all tracked by hand in separate files. We replaced it with one portal.

  • Leads get worked and convert into projects without anyone re-entering data
  • Every job runs on a milestone template, so nothing gets skipped between mitigation and rebuild
  • Budget vs. actual and projected collections live on every job, with margin locked in monthly
  • Every job records where it came from, and the system flags any job missing its referral source
  • Visits to referral partners are logged with their costs, so they can see what winning the work actually costs

Questions that used to take a day of spreadsheet work are now one screen: what is in the pipeline, what did we win, what is our margin this month, which relationships actually produce jobs.

Case study · Medical billing

Every claim in a state, not in someone's head.

A multi-office medical billing operation was tracking patient billing across locations in spreadsheets and shared notes. Nothing showed the team what was actually actionable today.

  • Every patient moves through defined billing states instead of living in a spreadsheet row
  • Insurance verification status is visible at a glance, per office
  • Claims scrub on a schedule, or on demand when a biller wants them out now
  • Missing documentation gets flagged before it becomes a denied claim

The team opens one screen and sees exactly what needs to happen today: what's ready to bill, what's waiting on insurance, and what's missing paperwork.

Process

From first call to software you own.

  1. 01

    A call about the manual work

    The systems you run and the work that happens by hand between them. You get a straight answer: build it, buy something that already exists, or leave it alone.

  2. 02

    Two weeks of discovery

    A paid, fixed-fee plan: what to build, what it connects to, and what it costs. The plan is yours whether or not we build it.

  3. 03

    Built in releases

    Fixed price, shipped in focused releases, so the most valuable part of the operation improves first instead of everything landing at the end.

  4. 04

    Then it keeps moving

    Hosting, support, and new reports and automations as the business changes, on a monthly partnership. The code and the data are yours.

You didn't start your business to babysit software that almost works. For nearly 20 years I've built enterprise software and led development teams as a Fractional CTO, and what clients hire me for is judgment: the right solution, kept maintainable, owned from idea to production. Let's talk →
