Custom Web App and Business System Development

If your business runs on spreadsheets, email chains and copying data between tools, a custom web app can take that work off your plate. I’m Andy Jones, a freelance developer in Lichfield, and I build web apps, CRMs, ERPs and other business systems that fit the way your company actually works.

Systems I build

• CRMs to manage customers, enquiries and sales. For AKM Music, I built a CRM that lets the client manage both their customers and their music catalogue.
• ERPs and internal systems to run stock, orders, jobs, staff or reporting in one place.
• Members’ platforms with subscriptions, messaging, uploads and search. Verse-Chorus, a songwriting community, is one I’ve built and continue to manage.
• Content and admin systems your own team can use. Warwickshire County Council staff publish and organise their own pages on a site I built for them.
• Interactive apps and portals, including work for large organisations such as Tesco, Debenhams, Kia Motors, Cadent Gas and West Midlands Fire Service.

Replace your spreadsheets

A spreadsheet is a good place to start, but it becomes risky as more people depend on it: versions multiply, nobody is sure which is current, and errors creep in. A web app gives your team proper logins, a single source of truth, searching, reporting and the ability to work from anywhere.

Connected to the rest of your software

I build and work with APIs, so your system can exchange data with payment providers, email tools and other third-party apps instead of someone re-typing information.

How I work

I build with PHP, Laravel, Livewire, Vue.js and MySQL, test the work, and keep the language plain. I’m also happy to take on older systems: if you already have a legacy application, I can advise whether to improve it or replace it. I’m based in Lichfield and work with businesses across Staffordshire and the West Midlands, or remotely.
