[01/06] > Service //03 · Internal tools

The back office your team works in.

Records, stages and reports shaped around how your team already works, instead of a ready-made tool everyone quietly stops using. One shared source of truth rather than five spreadsheets and a mailbox.

Your process,
not a vendor's.

An off-the-shelf tool asks your team to work the way it was designed. This is the other way round: the stages, fields and rules come from how you already operate.

//01Your names

Your records and stages

Deals, orders, cases or whatever you actually call them, moving through the stages your team names, with the fields you actually fill in.

//02Single source

One shared record

Contacts, companies, files and the message history in one place, so nobody has to ask a colleague to forward an email again.

//03Server-enforced

Team logins and roles

Who can see a price, change a stage or export the client list, decided by you and enforced on the server.

//04Rules you set

Automation

Follow-up reminders, stage-change notifications, task assignment and recurring reports: the work that gets forgotten when the week is busy.

//05Monday questions

Reporting managers open

Pipeline value, conversion between stages, ageing items and per-person load, on screens designed around the questions you ask on Monday.

//06Included in scope

Migration

Spreadsheets, exports from another tool or an older internal database, moved in and cleaned up as part of the scope.

Honest fit.
Before you pay.

Choose Operations System if

  • //01Your process lives in spreadsheets only one person understands.
  • //02You tried a ready-made tool and the team quietly stopped using it.
  • //03Your process has a step no standard tool has a field for.
  • //04Per-seat subscriptions cost more than owning the software.
  • //05Your data has to stay on infrastructure you control.

Look elsewhere if

  • //01A standard tool already fits your process. We will tell you if it does.
  • //02The logins are for clients, not staff → Client Portal
  • //03You only need a public site → Business Site
  • //04Nobody has written down how the current process works, even roughly.
  • //05You need it live next week. Bespoke work does not compress that far.

Brief to handover.
The same four steps.

  1. //01 Day 1

    A conversation about what the system has to do, who uses it and what it has to talk to. You leave with a written specification: screens, roles, data model, integrations, and the exact list of what is not included.

    Scope call

    RequirementsWritten specFixed quote
  2. //02 Days 2–3

    We agree what data lives where, who may see it, and how anything existing gets migrated. Credentials and third-party accounts are opened in your name before a line is written.

    Data and access

    Data modelRolesAccounts
  3. //03 Days 4–12

    The build happens on a staging URL you can open at any time. Progress is visible daily rather than revealed in a single handover at the end.

  4. //04 Days 13–15

    We deploy to your hosting, point your domain, hand over the repository and every credential, and walk your team through the parts they will operate themselves.

About this package.

Fixed price€1,500excl. VAT

Request this package
//01 Why not just buy a ready-made tool?

Because often you should, and we will say so on the scoping call rather than sell you a build you do not need. Owning the software earns its price in three situations: your process has a step no standard tool has a field for, per-seat fees have grown past the cost of building once, or the data cannot sit on somebody else's infrastructure. If none of those is true, buy the tool.

//02 How many people can use it?

As many as you employ. There is no per-seat licence and no upgrade tier: adding the eleventh user costs the same as adding the third, which is nothing. That is usually where a custom build overtakes a subscription on cost.

//03 Our process changes. Can the system change with it?

Stages, fields and roles are configuration rather than hard-coded conditionals, so renaming a stage or adding a field is an afternoon, not a rebuild. Structural change — a new record type, a new report — is a small quoted project, or it comes out of the change hours on a monthly plan.

//04 What happens to our spreadsheets?

They are imported as part of the scope, cleaned up in the process, and then kept as a read-only archive for a while so nobody panics. Historical data is rarely tidy; the quote assumes that and includes the reconciliation.

//05 Does the price cover integrations with our other systems?

No, deliberately. This package covers one coherent system: records, stages, roles, screens and reports. Connecting it to an accounting package or a warehouse is a separate scope, quoted on the integrations page, so neither price has to hide the other.
