No market tool covers your differentiating business process
The process that constitutes your competitive advantage is not modelled by any ERP, CRM or sector-specific SaaS. Standardising it would commoditise it.
We design the solutions your standard tools cannot deliver.
Architecture, development and public funding — orchestrated by a single interlocutor. For SMEs and mid-cap companies facing business challenges that off-the-shelf SaaS doesn't cover.
Preliminary diagnosis
When does custom make sense?
Custom is not the rule. As long as a market tool covers most of the need, that's what to choose. Custom is justified when several signals converge — and when no reasonable adaptation of a standard suffices.
Integration between your existing systems isn't industrialisable
Recurring manual exports, duplicates, re-entry, data reliability degraded by friction between tools — signs that orchestration deserves an integration layer designed for your flows.
You need an abstraction layer over multiple ERPs
Typical case for French subsidiaries of foreign groups: an imposed group ERP, local tools, and a need for operational consistency specific to the subsidiary.
Your regulatory compliance imposes non-standard business rules
Sector-specific CSRD, pharma, agri-food, finance, energy constraints — generic SaaS only models the average, not your specific regulatory perimeter.
Your volumes or performance constraints exceed standard SaaS
High transactional volumes, critical latency, heavy batch processing: above a threshold, generic multi-tenant ceases to be tenable and total cost shifts.
You want to create competitive advantage through tooling
The tool becomes an asset, not a recurring cost. Long-term investment logic — intellectual capitalisation of the company — rather than monthly subscription.
If two or three of these signals converge in your situation, custom deserves study — at least to compare real total cost to that of a stretched standard.
Method
Five steps. Zero improvisation.
Our method articulates three skills that most consultancies separate: strategic business vision, architectural design, and orchestration of public funding. Each step produces a usable deliverable — even if the project stops at that step.
Business framing — We seek to understand the real problem, not just the stated need. Executive interviews, process mapping, IS analysis. Deliverable: shared framing document.
Target architecture — Solution design, reasoned stack choice (build, buy, or hybrid), integration schemas, documented architecture decisions. Deliverable: architecture file usable by any technical team.
Funding plan — Identification and instruction of mobilisable schemes: French CII, CIR, France Num, Bpifrance, EU funds, OPCO. Funding isn't an add-on: it shapes scope, timeline and phasing.
Design & development — Detailed specifications, development (in-house or orchestrated with pre-qualified trusted partners), testing, acceptance. Transparent steering by milestones and shared indicators.
Deployment & autonomy — Progressive go-live, team training (Qualiopi-certified programmes anchored in the project), skills transfer, lasting documentation. Final goal: your operational autonomy.
Differentiation
Why us rather than a consulting firm or a development agency?
Each type of player has its own value. The rare combination — business vision, architectural skill, public funding mastery — is what characterises our positioning as solution architect.

First clients
An offering in active structuring.
We are currently structuring our first client cases in custom solution architecture. If you face a business challenge that off-the-shelf tools don't solve, contact us: we study each request individually. Being among our first cases means a direct relationship with the founder, sustained attention, and the opportunity to co-build the solution over time.
The individual components of this offering — ERP/CRM integration, change management, Qualiopi training, instruction of public funding schemes — stem from the founder's substantial professional experience.
Before booking the architecture exchange
Mira can qualify your situation in 3 minutes.
Describe your business challenge to Mira: she'll tell you whether custom architecture makes sense in your case, or whether another format (standard ERP/CRM, 360° Diagnostic, training) fits better. No commitment.
A challenge the market doesn't solve?
20 to 30 minutes to describe your situation and verify together whether custom architecture makes sense. No commitment.
