Bespoke Solutions

Your Business. Your Workflow. Your Solution.

What Is It

Excel. Without the side effects.

Scattered files, manual tasks and workarounds slow teams down.

But replacing entire systems often creates more problems than it solves.

What’s needed is something built around how the work actually happens. Judgment inside Excel. And that starts with deciding what’s worth building before anything gets built.

From there, everything is designed based on your logic and your data, to handle what off-the-shelf software can’t.

Starting from simple, reliable foundations and extending as far as the problem requires.

That might mean turning a two-hour weekly process into ten minutes. Validating data before anyone builds a report. Spotting trends and generating forecasts. Or simply making the work less exhausting.

And when Excel reaches its limits, I help you move to the right tool.

How It Works

Three steps. No surprises. Built to last.

I understand how the work happens, then design the solution.

I sit with the people who actually do the work. I trace the workflow end to end, identify where time leaks, where errors appear, where workarounds live. Then I design a solution around the actual logic, not the ideal one.


I build, you test, we refine.

I develop a working prototype using your real data and conditions. You test it in the environment where it needs to live. When something breaks or doesn’t feel right, we document why so you understand not just what the tool does, but what it assumes, where it might fail and how to adjust it. We iterate until it fits how your team already works, without adding costs, complexity or new things to learn.


I deliver and stay close.

You get a finished tool and the documentation to run it. You own the files, understand the logic and can change it yourselves. More importantly, you know what could go wrong and what to watch for. I train the team, answer what comes up and remain available as processes evolve, so the solution keeps its value over time.

Why Me

I don't just build and walk away.

Most solutions are built to impress, not to last. They look good in demos but fall apart when teams try to use them daily.

With me, you get a partner who:

Designs solutions that reduce manual effort and mental load.
Stays involved after delivery so the solution evolves as your needs do.
Documents not just how it works, but why it works this way and what could break it.

This is Phronesis. The practical wisdom to know what’s worth building, what should stay manual and when good enough beats perfect.

Whenever it feels right.
