DESIGN + BUILD

Your LMS shouldn't feel off-the-shelf

BuildEmpire is a dev-led team that designs and builds bespoke Totara solutions around how your L&D function actually works not the other way round.

THE PROBLEM

Generic doesn't scale with you

Most L&D teams end up managing their LMS instead of the other way round. Off-the-shelf platforms — and even standard Totara implementations — force compromises that pile up over time.

Clunky workflows

Built for the average customer, not your team.

Limited integrations

HR systems, SSO and reporting left disconnected.

Unbranded UI

Generic templates that don’t reflect your organisation.

Slow, templated support

From partners who didn’t build what they maintain.

THE SHIFT

Less configuration, more construction

Most Totara implementations are configuration exercises inside a fixed template. BuildEmpire works differently. We’re you’re partner and we’re dev-focussed meaning we build something that suits you.

01

Design

We map your actual L&D workflows, brand and reporting needs before a single line of code is written.

02

Build

Our in-house developers write bespoke functionality, integrations and interfaces specific to your organisation. We then build out the LMS, making use of core Totara and custom functionality.

03

Yours

What you’re left with is uniquely yours. Each of our LMS builds are entirely bespoke to the user and their set requirements. We give you the skills and the features to create the learning solution you need.
