South Africa

Most of our work is with South African organisations. We are in Sandton, and we meet clients in person at our office or at another venue we agree on. With organisations in Cape Town, Durban and other cities, most of the work runs by video call, which is how most software projects run day to day anyway, and in-person meetings can be arranged where the project needs them.

Our pricing is published in rand, our work is designed around South Africa's Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA), and we are 100% black-owned and a B-BBEE Level 1 EME.

Remote engagements

How a remote project runs

The same steps as for a client in Sandton, delivered by video call and shared documents.

01

Discovery by video call

We map the process with the people who run it, screen-sharing the spreadsheets, forms and systems they use today.

02

Written scope and roadmap

You receive the scope, phases and quote in writing, so decisions do not depend on being in the same room.

03

Phased build and demos

Each phase is demonstrated on a call and tested by your team before it goes live.

04

Hosting agreed with you

We agree where the system and its data are hosted, taking into account your users' locations and your data-protection obligations.

05

Training and handover

Training, documentation and handover sessions are run remotely and recorded where useful.

06

Support after launch

Support and further phases continue remotely, within the working-hours overlap shown above.

Data protection across borders

Auris Nexus is subject to South Africa's Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA), which includes conditions for transferring personal information outside South Africa. Organisations elsewhere usually have their own obligations too, for example under the EU and UK GDPR, Kenya's Data Protection Act, 2019, or Nigeria's Data Protection Act, 2023.

Before a build starts, we agree with you where personal information will be stored and processed and how it will be protected. This is not legal advice; involve your own legal adviser where your obligations are unclear. Our POPIA checklist for business software covers the questions to ask.

Auris Nexus is subject to South Africa's Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA). Your own country's data-protection law will usually apply to your organisation too, so we agree where data is hosted and how it is protected with you, and with your legal adviser where needed.
