PeakLab designs business software to replace a critical spreadsheet, connect fragmented tools or make an SME-specific process reliable. We first define roles, rules, data and expected outcomes to check whether custom software is the right decision.
Every priority calculation, approval, permission and exception is linked to an owner, an example and an acceptance criterion.
The proposal separates features, migration, interfaces, content, third-party access, client validation and backlog items.
Sources, transformations, duplicates, rejects, reconciliations and the cutover strategy are tested before production.
Repository, environments, access, documentation, backups, monitoring and maintenance are handed over within the agreed scope.
A business application becomes relevant when an important process depends on a fragile spreadsheet, duplicate entry, email or software that shares neither the same rules nor the same data. It can bring cases, approvals, calculations, documents, scheduling and monitoring into a tool shaped around the company's actual roles.
Custom software is not an objective in itself. Off-the-shelf software, ERP configuration or automation is often enough when the process is standard. We therefore compare keep, configure, connect, automate or build before committing to development. The France Num guide updated on July 9, 2026 likewise starts with repetitive tasks and information transfers rather than a tool.
Custom development is most defensible when your business rules set you apart, workarounds have become risky or the current system blocks a priority change. The first deliverable is then a reasoned decision, not a list of screens.
“This page focuses on internal and operational software: business rules, roles, data migration, integrations and adoption. Our web development agency covers portals, platforms and web applications more broadly. PeakLab also brings together Product Design, Product Management and automation in one expertise set. We can therefore recommend existing software or a smaller scope when a full application is not justified.”
Six workstreams to turn a real process into software that people can use, control and maintain.
We follow a case from end to end with operators, identify tools, re-entry, waiting time, exceptions and owners, then compare alternatives. The deliverable links each friction to an observable consequence and concludes: keep, configure, connect, automate or build.
We model business objects, statuses, transitions, approvals, calculations, notifications, responsibilities and exceptions. A matrix states who can view, create, edit, export or delete each type of data. Critical rules receive examples and acceptance criteria the business team can understand.
We design frequent and risky tasks first: search, entry, approval, correction, history and export. The prototype also covers empty, loading, error and conflict states. Representative users try it before full development to check terminology, sequence and required information.
We inventory files, databases, attachments, owners, formats and retention rules. Migration defines mappings, cleaning, deduplication, rejects and reconciliation checks. A rehearsal on a copy lets the business validate discrepancies before choosing cutover, coexistence or rollback.
ERP, CRM, accounting, email, signature, storage or APIs are connected only when interfaces, permissions and reliability allow it. For every flow, we document the trigger, exchanged data, errors, recovery and owner. Human review remains available for sensitive decisions.
Access control, authentication, logs, tested backups, updates and incident handling are defined according to risk. The French data protection authority stated on June 19, 2026 that these measures concern every company; ANSSI also places security throughout the software lifecycle. No compliance level is claimed without an audit of the delivered scope.
Modern and proven stack for high-performance apps
Follow real tasks, map actors, tools, data, exceptions and consequences, then define starting signals
Compare off-the-shelf, configuration, integration, automation and custom software, then write rules, limits, owners and criteria
Test tasks, terminology, permissions, errors and exceptions with representative users before full development
Develop, integrate and migrate on a copy, automate checks, then have features and data accepted by the business
Prepare cutover, training, support and rollback, then monitor use, errors, processing time and change requests

For ODD Pharma, PeakLab designed a white-label platform that centralizes data collection, dashboards and report generation, with spaces suited to teams and their clients. The published case shows how a business process can become a coherent software product instead of a sequence of isolated files and actions.
Here we retain only that functional scope and the published testimonial. Previous processing-time and capacity figures, whose protocol is not public, are no longer used as a commercial promise. Every new project defines its own baseline, data controls and attribution conditions.
The design also specifies who can access what, what must be logged and how data is retained or returned. Where personal data is involved, the France Num guide updated on May 22, 2026 helps qualify responsibilities, contracts, processors and location; it does not replace legal analysis of the processing activity.
Let's describe the roles, current tools, duplicate entry, critical rules and data to migrate. You will know whether to configure, connect, automate or build.
Custom software, spreadsheets, ERP, budget, timeline, migration, security, adoption and ownership.
In one call, we tell you what's feasible, at what price, and in what timeframe. With full transparency.
