Services

Three kinds of work, one person.

Web and software development

I advise on, design and build websites, web applications and software: for customers, and for products of my own.

  • A business website that is fast, easy to find and easy to keep up to date.
  • A web application for a process that now lives in spreadsheets and email.
  • Software that connects tools you already use.
  • A new feature in a product that exists, or a digital product of its own.

Before I start, you and I agree in writing on what gets built, and I explain choices in plain language. Tell me what you need and I will tell you honestly whether and how I can help.

Web platforms I run myself

I build and run digital products of my own, first of all because I enjoy it.

  • Why I do it: I get a lot of joy from making something good that adds something, and trying out ideas along the way.
  • What I do with it: I share it with the world, possibly for a small fee.
  • What it means for you: what I learn from it is useful in the work I do for customers.

IT advice and brokering

Not every question needs a new build. You can hire me for advice, drawing on over 20 years in IT.

  • Advice on an IT question: what to build, what to buy and what to leave alone.
  • Help putting into words what you need, so you can compare offers.
  • Brokering a business IT project: if someone else is a better fit than me, I say so.

Data governance

  • Who owns which data, so that every dataset has one person who answers for it.
  • One set of definitions, so that “customer” or “active” means the same thing in every report.
  • Retention periods and GDPR in practice: what you keep, how long, and why.
  • Data quality you can measure, so you see whether it improves.

Not sure where your data stands? Tell me what you have and I will tell you where I would start.

Agile working

  • Small steps that each work, so you see progress every few weeks instead of at the end.
  • Prioritising together with you, so the most valuable thing comes first.
  • Scrum or kanban without ceremony for the sake of ceremony: only what helps your team deliver.

Want a second pair of eyes on how your team delivers? Tell me what you need.

Language, location and VAT

I work in English and Dutch, from the Netherlands, for customers in the Netherlands and abroad. How invoicing and VAT work for your situation is part of the quote.

Working with teams and organisations of every size

I can work alongside your own team or agency, in your repository and your tools, and hand over with documentation. Scope, planning and price are agreed in writing before I start, and privacy and security are part of the build, not an extra. I am one person, so you get a direct line and fixed agreements instead of a service desk; I tell you up front what I can and cannot commit to.

A first conversation

In a first conversation you tell me your question, I give you my first assessment, and I tell you what I would propose: approach, scope and next step. Then you decide whether to take it further.

Plan an introduction

Have something in mind?

Tell me in a few lines what you want to achieve. I reply myself, in plain language.
