SERVICES / BUSINESS AND DEVELOPMENT
Custom back-office development for business tools
A useful back-office is not only a content management screen. It must help teams track statuses, validate actions, correct data and steer a real process.
When a tailored tool becomes useful
Business administration interface design for content, cases, roles, validations, exports and dashboards.
- Create an administration interface for a business application
- Replace scattered internal tools with one centralised workspace
- Give different profiles adapted rights on shared data
What the engagement includes
The scope is defined together, before development. Deliverables depend on the workflows, data and constraints of your organisation.
- Analysis of operations to steer and access rights needed
- Design of list, detail, edition and validation screens
- Development of useful workflows, exports and dashboards
- Documentation of rules to support handover
What it helps make clearer
- More autonomy for teams managing the tool
- Business rules visible instead of hidden in files
- An interface adapted to repeated everyday operations
Frame before building
- Understand the current workflow, users, constraints and decisions that must become reliable.
- Define a first-version scope with priority business rules, access rights and data.
- Build through short iterations, with regular validation points and useful documentation for future handover.
A technical stack suited to the need
The stack is chosen for the work it needs to support. Readable conventions and useful documentation help the tool evolve and make handover easier.
- Symfony / PHP for business logic and APIs
- API Platform when several interfaces or systems share the same data
- PostgreSQL or MySQL depending on the data context
- Astro, Tailwind CSS or dedicated interfaces for user-facing screens
- Docker and reproducible environments to make maintenance easier
Examples of features
- User roles and access rights
- Workflows, statuses and validations
- Dashboards and filterable lists
- Exports, imports and history tracking
- API connections with existing tools
A FEW POINTERS
Frequently asked questions.
Who is this back-office service for?
It is for SMEs, nonprofits, public-sector teams or industrial contexts that need to clarify processes, make data more reliable and build a maintainable web tool.
Do you work remotely?
Yes. I am based in Caen, France, and work remotely with structured teams in France, the UK, Ireland and other international contexts when the project is well framed.
How does a mission start?
It starts with a framing discussion: context, users, constraints, data, priorities and risks. This avoids building a tool disconnected from real usage.
