Shayne Marshall is the Managing Director of Kitji Studios. The tech company which has been in operation since 2017 is located in Breedy’s Land, Silver Sands, Christ Church and offers software engineering, reverse engineering, software development and maintenance, systems analysis and design, project management and systems architecture.
The former student of Combermere School who holds a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Management from the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill Campus, said he decided to start the business to provide services and solutions to the local and international market, which, if applied correctly could transform Barbados into a global solutions hub for software and information and communication technology (ICT) services.
“Since starting the company, [our eight-member team] has built a bespoke solution for Barbados Customs and Excise Department and completed two real time processing (RTP) integrations for two financial institutions. We conceptualised and are engineering an overtime payment and ledger system – Private Electronic Ledger and Accounting System (PELAS), an online Identity Access Management (IAM) system called UTELL and Multiuser Integrated Research Implementation and Archives Management (MIRIAM), an online portal to access historical archive information,” he said.
Marshall said PELAS and UTELL, which he plans to launch this month, will benefit everyone and demonstrate that software solutions are far more accessible and affordable than people may believe.
“PELAS is a solution that enhances record keeping, customer (internal and external) management, auditing and salary remunerations for any Government department that performs overtime duties. UTELL enhances the accurate identification of consumers in Barbados and facilitates the secure transfer and consumption of data by private and public entities. Finally, it will let users manage their personally identifiable information (PII) apart from public and private entities,” he said.
Marshall said Kitji Studios will also introduce established foreign companies to the local industry. “The real time payment (RTP) platform is integral to the FinTech industry as our company is involved in the integration of RTP solutions. MIRIAM will grant every Barbadian access to their historical information stored at Barbados National Archive Department, augment and enhance UTELL for its launch, as well as provide a solution to help the rapid onboarding of foreign investors,” he said.
