Dera Ismail Khan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa · Custom software company, built from Islamabad
Software House in Dera Ismail Khan for Traders, Hospitals, Labs and Projects
For traders supplying southern KP, hospitals and labs handling referred patients, and projects reporting from the field, where records pass through too many hands: one system that keeps each entry traceable from start to report.
Timeline Digital is a custom software development company founded in 2013 and headquartered in Islamabad. We build trading ERP, hospital and lab systems and offline field data apps for Dera Ismail Khan traders, hospitals, diagnostic labs and development projects, delivered remotely from our Islamabad headquarters. Before you commit to the full project, we build 2 to 3 of your key modules as a free pilot for your team to test.
Why businesses in Dera Ismail Khan build custom software
Dera Ismail Khan is in southern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, on the west bank of the Indus near the Punjab border. Organisations here often serve a wide area in both provinces: a trader supplying shops and wholesalers across southern KP, a hospital or diagnostic lab receiving patients referred from outlying districts, a development project whose staff collect data in the field. What they share is a long chain of hand-offs. A custom system records each step, whether a sale, a sample or a survey, with who did it and when, so managers and donors get reports they can check back to the source.
Software we build for Dera Ismail Khan businesses
Trading ERP for suppliers across southern KP
Orders from shops and wholesalers in different districts are logged with the agreed rate and transport arrangement, dispatched from stock and followed through to payment. The system keeps each customer's ledger, shows receivables by district and records goods in transit. Purchases from Punjab suppliers and sales in KP sit in one set of books that can be exported to your accounting tool.
Lab sample tracking with collection points
Samples taken at the main lab or at outlying collection points get a barcode label at the moment of collection. The lab sees each sample's status, from received to tested to verified, and results reach the patient and the referring doctor only after release. Test menus and reference ranges are set up for your lab, and analyser results can flow in where your machines allow it.
Hospital patient record and referral system
Each patient gets one record covering OPD visits, admissions, procedures and lab results, including referral notes from the doctor or facility that sent them. Discharge summaries are produced from the record rather than written from scratch. Role-based access keeps doctors, nurses, reception and accounts on their own screens, and every edit is logged with the user and time.
Beneficiary and field data app for projects
Field staff register beneficiaries, record surveys or distributions and take photos on an Android app that works offline. Entries go to supervisors for review before they count in any report. Donor reports by district, activity and period come straight from the approved data, and a full change log supports monitoring and audit visits.

Why work with Timeline Digital from Dera Ismail Khan
One system across the provincial border
Many organisations here buy in Punjab and sell in KP, or serve patients and beneficiaries from both. We keep parties, sites and districts in one database with area filters, so the provincial line never splits your records.
Traceability for donors and doctors
Projects and labs are judged on whether their records hold up. We build approval steps, verification before release and a complete audit trail, so any figure in a report can be traced to the person and time behind it.
Field apps that tolerate weak coverage
Survey forms, distribution records and sample collection screens save on the device and sync later, so staff working where the signal is poor keep going instead of waiting for coverage.
Remote delivery with visits written into the contract
We work from our Islamabad headquarters and serve Dera Ismail Khan through video calls, screen sharing and WhatsApp. Where training field teams or setting up lab hardware needs a visit, it is planned and agreed in the contract.
- No office in KP: our only office is G-11 Markaz, Islamabad, and Dera Ismail Khan is served remotely
- Free pilot of 2 to 3 key modules, tested by your staff before you commit
- Audit history and role-based access on patient and project data
- Offline field apps with later sync
What a custom system could do for Dera Ismail Khan businesses
Example workflows for common types of business. They show what a system can do; they are not client case studies.
Wholesale trader
A trader supplying shops in several southern KP districts could track orders, goods in transit and receivables by district in one ledger.
Diagnostic lab with collection points
A lab with outlying collection points could barcode each sample at collection, follow its status to a verified result and release reports to patients and doctors.
Development project
A project team could register beneficiaries and record distributions on an offline app, approve entries before they count, and produce donor reports by district.
Frequently asked questions
Do you have an office in Dera Ismail Khan or anywhere in KP?
No. Timeline Digital's only office is in G-11 Markaz, Islamabad. Clients in Dera Ismail Khan are served remotely: we plan the system with you on video calls, run testing and training with screen sharing, and answer questions on WhatsApp during office hours. We have no staff based in the city. If you need someone on site, for instance to train field teams or install lab hardware, that is agreed in the contract.
What would a Dera Ismail Khan lab, hospital or trader test in the free pilot?
The pilot comes first: 2 to 3 of your key modules, built as working software free of charge, before you commit to the full project. A lab might pilot sample registration and result verification. A hospital could start with patient registration and the referral record. A trader would usually test order entry and receivables by district. Your staff work with the pilot on real cases, and the full build starts only after you approve it.
Can the lab system connect to our analysers?
Many analysers can send results to a computer, and where yours do, we can bring results straight into the patient's report so they are not typed by hand. Older machines may not support this, in which case technicians enter results and the system checks them against the reference ranges you set. We confirm what your machines support before committing to either approach.
Can donors see project data without full access to our system?
Yes. Donors or partners can get a read-only login that shows approved reports and dashboards for their project, district or period, with beneficiaries' personal details hidden if you choose. They never see draft entries or other projects. Reports can also be exported to Excel or PDF when a reporting deadline needs a file rather than a login.
Can a trader here keep Punjab and KP customers in separate ledgers?
Yes. Customers, sales and receivables can be grouped by province and district, with separate reports for each, while stock and purchases stay in one system. Where you issue tax invoices, bills can be FBR-ready, and entries can be exported to the tool your accountant uses. You see the whole business in one view or each area on its own.
