Systems, automation and data consulting

Manual processes turned into working systems.

Automation, Dynamics 365, reporting and AI integration for small and mid-sized teams. Ten years in IT, the last six supporting international banks on a reconciliation platform, so I am used to systems where mistakes cost money.

A typical build. Each step is replaceable, so the system keeps working when your tools change.

Services

What I build and fix

Six areas, all connected: most projects start with a process, touch a system and end with a report.

Process automation

Approvals, notifications, document handling and data movement between systems, with error handling and a handover guide so your team can maintain it.

Power Automate · Outlook · SharePoint · OneDrive

Dynamics 365 and CRM

Forms, workflows, security roles and Customer Service setup, plus testing with your users before go-live. I have worked with Dynamics CRM since 2016.

Dynamics 365 · Customer Service · UAT · training

Data and reporting

The queries behind the numbers, cleaned data, and dashboards people actually open. Strong on SQL Server and on explaining what a figure really means.

SQL Server · T-SQL · SSIS · SSRS · Power BI · QlikView

AI integration

Assistants that answer from your own documents, and AI tools wired into the systems you already use, with clear limits on what they may do.

RAG pipelines · Claude · Microsoft Copilot

Websites and portals

Fast small-business sites and customer self-service pages. I built a portal where banking clients raise cases and find documentation, backed by Power Apps and Power Automate.

HTML · CSS · Power Apps

Analysis and testing

Requirements, As-Is and To-Be analysis, user stories, UAT coordination, due diligence on software contracts, and automated browser tests that catch breakages early.

How a project runs

Small steps, fixed prices, no surprises

  1. Free call

    Thirty minutes on what is slowing your team down. No sales deck.

  2. Written quote

    What is included, what it costs and when it is done. Fixed price wherever the scope allows.

  3. Build and demo

    You see working pieces every few days, so a wrong turn costs hours, not weeks.

  4. Handover

    Documentation, a walkthrough for your team, and 14 days of free fixes on what I built.

Pricing

Clear prices

Fixed-price packages for common jobs, hourly and day rates for everything else, and retainers for ongoing help. Pick the currency you prefer to see.

Projects and notes

Things I build to learn in the open

Small projects on tools and ideas I want to understand properly, written up with what worked and what did not. Planned topics are marked.

About

The person banks called when reconciliation did not match

I am Miguel, a business and application support analyst based in Mallorca, working UK and European hours.

For six years I was the first point of contact for international banks on a reconciliation platform, from testing and implementation to post-go-live support. That meant reading data to find why two systems disagreed, explaining it to people on both sides, and getting the fix tested.

Alongside the support work I built things: a customer self-service site on Power Apps and Power Automate, Dynamics CRM workflows, and I helped with an internal AI assistant that answers from company documentation. This site is where I write up the next ones.

English is my first language and I speak Spanish at a working level. I hold UK security clearance (SC) and dual British and Spanish citizenship.
