I have worked with Thanh (Bruce) Pham on several projects, and I admire his professionalism and his dedication to delivering high-quality work. He is responsive when answering emails and calls, as well as making sure that work always gets done on time. I am glad to be working with him and hope to continue working with him.
Mr. RJ Macasaet
Head of Partnership - DMI Global
As the Owner and Director of ISMS Global, Australia, I understand perfectly how challenging it is to find a support team of skilled and professional developers to help grow a system. A few years ago, I found Saigon Technology Software (STS), led by Mr. Thanh Pham (CEO), and I have never looked back. STS has single-handedly taken ISMS camp management software from a concept on a napkin to an international product used by major companies around the world. If you are looking for a trusted partner to help you, then you should be talking to Thanh Pham.

For our full catalogue of software development services, see our services page. This page focuses on how we scope and deliver for Singapore-based clients specifically.
Which Engagement Model Fits Your Singapore Team?
Pick the engagement model that matches your project scope and internal capacity. Here's how the four options break down.
- Dedicated Team -Â works best for long-running products where you own the roadmap and priorities, and we deliver a full squad plus a project manager who runs day-to-day execution.
- Staff Augmentation - fills specific skill gaps on your existing team. You manage the day-to-day work; we supply vetted engineers who plug into your workflow, standups, and tooling.
- Fixed Price - suits defined MVPs with clear requirements. We commit to the scope, timeline, and deliverables - your team handles acceptance against the agreed spec.
- Offshore Development Centre (ODC) is built for scaling past 10 engineers. You set the strategy; we handle the facility, operations, and recruiting pipeline in Vietnam so you get a dedicated extension of your org.
Every engagement includes a dedicated project manager, shared project boards, and biweekly sprint demos, so you always know where things stand.

Can EDG, PSG, or Smart Nation Grants Fund Your Project?
Singapore's Smart Nation initiative continues to push digital adoption across SMEs and enterprises. We help eligible customised software development projects in Singapore build a stronger grant application:
- Enterprise Development Grant (EDG) - for custom software development projects that build new capability
- Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG) - for pre-approved productivity solutions and customised software
- Open Innovation Platform (OIP) grant - for innovation challenges with qualified consultant support
We will help you:
- Map eligibility criteria and grant eligibility for your use case
- Prepare cost estimation and development schedule documentation
- Align qualifying project costs with the grant's application process
Grants are administered by the relevant Singapore agencies. We support the scoping and documentation, we do not approve applications.
How We Protect Your Data, Code, and IP?
- ISO 27001 information security controls
- PDPA-aligned data handling, DPO consultation, and breach response procedures
- NDA-first engagement - signed before any scoping call detail
- Full intellectual property protection - you own 100% of source code, designs, and assets on delivery

Are You a Registered Software Development Company Operating in Singapore?
Yes. We have a registered Singapore office at 20 Cecil St #14-00 PLUS, Singapore 049705, with local contract and invoicing capability in SGD.
How Is this Different from Your Global Offshore Model?
This page is for Singapore-based engagements specifically. For our global engagement model, see our offshore software development guide.
How Much Does Custom Software Development Cost in Singapore (SGD)?
Most custom software development Singapore engagements with us land in these ranges:
- MVP / PoC: SGD 12,000 - 60,000+ (8 - 14 weeks)
- Full custom platform: SGD 30,000 - 150,000+ (4 - 9 months)
- Ongoing maintenance retainer: from SGD 3,000 / month - covers performance monitoring, security updates, bug fixes, and small feature updates
Final figures depend on functionality, customisation, integrations, and SLA targets. Request a tailored cost estimation and development schedule for your project scope.
Are You PDPA Compliant?
Yes. Our delivery follows PDPA-aligned data handling, and we operate under ISO 27001 controls. We can host workloads in AWS, Azure, or GCP Singapore regions on request.
Who Owns the Source Code and IP?
You do. Intellectual property protection and full source-code handover are written into every contract.
How Do You Manage Timezone and Communication?
Vietnam shares GMT+8 with Singapore, so working hours overlap fully. Project managers are English-fluent, and SG clients get biweekly sprint demos plus shared project boards.
Can You Augment My Existing In-house Singapore Team?
Yes. Staff augmentation is one of our most common engagements with Singapore clients, including short-term cover for bug fixes, feature enhancements, or specialist AI/ML development capacity.
