Technical audit for web applications, Symfony and business tools

A technical audit helps decide what should be kept, stabilised or rebuilt before restarting development, maintenance or a web application redesign.

From €1,500 excl. VAT 3 days of analysis · report and one-hour debrief within 2 weeks

  • Symfony 5.4 to 8
  • Debrief in Caen or by video call

When a tailored tool becomes useful

Code, architecture, security, performance, technical debt and maintainability analysis to set priorities before moving blind.

  • Take over a web application the team no longer dares to change
  • Audit a Symfony project before maintenance or migration
  • Decide whether a full rebuild is really necessary

What the engagement includes

The scope is defined together, before development. Deliverables depend on the workflows, data and constraints of your organisation.

  • Mapping of technical and functional risks
  • Review of dependencies, versions, security, data and deployment
  • Prioritisation of fixes, migrations or targeted redesigns
  • Clear synthesis to arbitrate between takeover, stabilisation and rebuild

What it helps make clearer

  • A clear view of risks before committing budget
  • Technical priorities connected to business usage
  • Fewer decisions based on intuition or urgency

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 technical audit 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.

YOUR NEED IS THE STARTING POINT.
