01 Two ways we build

One company. Two kinds of work.

We engineer custom technology for organizations, and we build and run software products of our own. Each makes us better at the other.

Built for you

Custom engineered solutions.

We work with organizations to design and develop technology tailored to their challenges, then stay to support it.

04 Why a Foundry?

Where ideas take shape.

A foundry is where raw materials become something useful. Where ideas are given structure. Where precision and craftsmanship turn possibility into reality.

We do the same thing with software.

Watch the 90-second tourWho we are, what we build, and why we call it a foundry. 1:29, captioned.
  1. 01

    Discover

    Every great creation starts with an idea.

    We examine the challenge, understand the opportunity, and establish what needs to be built.

  2. 02

    Shape

    Ideas need structure.

    We architect the technology, plan its components, define the experience, and create the foundation.

  3. 03

    Forge

    This is where the work takes form.

    We engineer the application, integrate the systems, develop the functionality, and turn architecture into working software.

  4. 04

    Refine

    Precision separates a prototype from a product.

    We test, secure, optimize, and improve the solution.

  5. 05

    Deliver & Evolve

    Built for use. Designed to grow.

    We deploy the finished solution and keep supporting it as it evolves.

06 Established 2002

Rooted in experience. Built for what’s next.

Our story began in 2002, when the web was a very different place. As technology evolved, so did the solutions we build. Today, that foundation of experience powers custom applications, modern platforms, and original software products.

Jones Web Designs & Development is now The Jones Foundry.

Same founder, same commitment, same way of working. If you’ve worked with us before, you reach us exactly as you always have.
