We assess your current tools, design the integrations and automations that eliminate manual work, configure ARGUS to orchestrate your platform, and build the custom FORGE solutions your specific operation requires.

WHAT WE BUILD

Every deliverable from Build Your Engine — fixed-price, built on FORGE and ARGUS.

Tech Stack Assessment and Architecture

We audit every tool you currently use, identify redundancies and gaps, map data flows, analyze total cost, and produce a rationalized stack recommendation aligned with the Intelligent Analytics platform — so you know exactly what to keep, cancel, and connect before any build work begins.

Custom Integrations and Automations

We build the connections your stack does not have natively — QuickBooks, industry-specific platforms, legacy ERPs, and any third-party tool that needs to share data with your Intelligent Analytics platform. Every integration is fixed-price and scoped before development begins.

Microsoft 365 Solutions

SharePoint architecture, Power Automate workflow builds, Teams integration, Power BI custom reports, and full Microsoft 365 configuration for businesses that are already paying for the Microsoft stack but not using it effectively.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

Every deliverable, clearly defined.

No scope creep. No surprises. Every engagement is scoped and priced before we start.

✓

Tech stack audit & architecture design

We audit every tool your business currently uses, identify redundancies, gaps, and hidden costs, and design a rationalized tech architecture aligned with the Intelligent Analytics platform — so you know exactly what to keep, cancel, and connect before any build work begins.

✓

Automation opportunity mapping

We map every manual step in your operation and identify which ones can be eliminated through automation — giving you a prioritized list of automation opportunities ranked by time saved and business impact.

✓

Custom integration builds (API/webhook/ETL)

We build the native connections your stack does not have — API integrations, webhook triggers, and data pipelines between Intelligent Analytics and your industry tools, accounting software, or legacy systems — all fixed-price and scoped before development begins.

✓

ARGUS event workflow configuration

We configure ARGUS to orchestrate the events across your Intelligent Analytics platform — defining which actions trigger which responses, building cross-platform workflow chains, and activating the automation logic that makes your business run without manual coordination.

✓

FORGE custom portal or application (if scoped)

When your operation needs something the Intelligent Analytics platform does not have out of the box, FORGE builds it — a custom customer portal, an internal management tool, a mobile field application, or a purpose-built workflow app scoped and delivered at a fixed price.

✓

Microsoft 365 administration & setup

We configure and administer your Microsoft 365 environment — user accounts, licensing, security policies, SharePoint structure, Teams setup, and Power Automate workflows — so you are actually using what you are already paying for.

✓

Azure infrastructure design & deployment

We design and deploy Azure cloud infrastructure for businesses that need scalable, enterprise-grade hosting, database management, or custom application environments — architected for your needs, not over-engineered for someone else’s.

✓

Intune/Defender device management setup

We configure Microsoft Intune and Defender to manage and secure every device in your organization — so your team’s laptops, phones, and tablets are enrolled, monitored, and protected without requiring an IT department.

✓

Automation testing & documentation

Every automation and integration we build is tested against real business scenarios before handoff — and fully documented so your team understands what runs, how it works, and what to do if something needs to change.

✓

Ongoing support retainer (optional)

For businesses that want ongoing platform management, optimization, and development support after the initial engagement, we offer a structured monthly retainer — scoped to your specific needs, not a generic catch-all contract.

WHO IT'S FOR

Is Build Your Engine right for you?

Businesses With Too Many Tools

You use 12 different apps that don’t talk to each other. You pay for things twice. Manual work fills the gaps. We eliminate that.

Microsoft-First Organizations

You’re running M365, Azure, or a custom Microsoft stack and need someone who actually knows how to build on it — not just manage it.

Businesses Ready to Automate

You’ve standardized your process. Now you want to remove the humans from the repetitive steps and let the system run. We build that.

Ready to build the technology systems that run your small business without you?
