Shared data
Transfer clients, products, orders or other records without entering them manually again.
APPS/006Application integration
Your apps.
Working together.
We connect your applications to share customers, products, orders and statuses without entering the same information repeatedly. We define which system is the source of truth and how to handle differences or errors.
Same data.
Fewer steps between systems.
Sharing information takes more than moving records. We need to define what each data item means, where it comes from and what happens when two systems disagree.
Coordinated updates
Communicate changes between tools to continue the process with consistent information.
Consolidation of information
Bring data from several sources into an application or dashboard.
Transitions between tools
Prepare imports or data exchanges when part of the operation moves to another system.
From one application
to the next.
We review technical access and business rules. An integration needs to define where each data item comes from and how duplicates, changes and errors are handled.

A tool of your own.
A specific delivery.
These are the elements we define in the proposal. The final scope depends on your starting point and business priorities.
/001Interface review
We check the integration mechanisms, permissions, limits and conditions of the applications.
/002Data and rules map
We agree on field mappings, identifiers and which system owns each type of information.
/003Build the data exchange
We implement queries, transfers or notifications according to the agreed workflow.
/004Issue handling
We define retries, status logs and a review process for cases that cannot be resolved automatically.
/005Handover and continuity
We hand over the access, documentation and guidance covered by the agreed scope. Follow-up or maintenance is defined separately if commissioned.
Agree the data.
Connect the work.
(4)Review both systems
We check access, documentation and limits for the tools that need to exchange information.
Agree the rules
We define field mappings, identifiers and what happens when data changes or a duplicate appears.
Build the exchange
We implement the connection and status recording, with the necessary checks and confirmations.
Test failure and recovery
We check errors, usage limits and retries to avoid inconsistent records.
Designed for your team.
Sustainable for your business.
Agreed scope
A custom application needs priorities and limits. We document features, user journeys and acceptance criteria before development.
Data and access
We define the profiles, actions and information each person needs, along with the planned backups, recovery and access management.
Operation and ongoing development
We define where the application runs, its recurring costs and who maintains it. Later versions are prioritised according to actual use.
Before we start.
(5)What if apps have different data?
We agree on the source of truth, how records are identified and how conflicts are reviewed. Connecting systems does not resolve existing inconsistencies on its own.
Could this stop working if a supplier makes changes?
Yes. An update or a change to access permissions can affect an integration. We define its dependencies and the maintenance needed to review it.
Does everything have to be defined from the beginning?
We need a clear goal and scope for the first version. Further features can be prioritised after testing; changes are assessed before they are added.
Can we connect the tools we already use?
We review the integration interfaces, permissions and terms. If a connection is not feasible, we explain alternatives and their limitations before committing to development.
What happens after delivery?
We agree on hosting, support, maintenance and documentation. The proposal distinguishes operation of the delivered version from extensions and recurring services.
Engineering × Design.
