Application packaging & endpoint deployment — independent consultancy

Enterprise application packaging, MSIX, Intune & Windows 11 migration — delivered end to end.

Application packaging services for organisations that need software deployed reliably and at scale: MSI and MSIX packaging, App-V virtualisation, PSADT scripting, Intune and MECM/SCCM deployment, and full Windows 10, Windows 11 and Windows Server migration programmes — from discovery and rationalisation through CAB-approved production deployment.

01 — Services

Everything between “we bought this app” and “it's deployed everywhere”

A single, accountable owner for the whole application lifecycle — discovery, packaging, testing, deployment, documentation and production support.

Application packaging

MSI, MSIX, App-V and PSADT packages built to enterprise standards with InstallShield AdminStudio, Wise Package Studio and Orca — silent, consistent and deployment-ready.

Software deployment

Distribution and lifecycle management through Microsoft Intune, MECM/SCCM and Ivanti: scheduling, collections, validation and post-release support.

Windows migrations

Windows 10 to 11 and Windows Server migration programmes — application discovery, compatibility remediation and zero-downtime production cutovers.

Discovery & rationalisation

Application intake, dependency mapping, compatibility assessment and CMDB updates that give migration programmes an accurate picture of the estate.

Scripting & automation

PowerShell, VBScript and PSADT automation that standardises packaging workflows, removes manual steps and cuts delivery time.

QA, testing & documentation

UAT and smoke testing, installation guides, packaging standards and CAB-ready documentation for repeatable enterprise delivery.

Also working across: Citrix XenApp, VMware, Active Directory, Group Policy, IIS and ServiceNow.

02 — Track record

Trusted where deployment failure is not an option

Two decades of application packaging and migration delivery in banking, retail, public sector and enterprise environments across the UK, Ireland, Belgium and Romania — on programmes where a failed deployment stops the business.

  • Windows 7 to Windows 10 migration: 200+ applications packaged and virtualised; 85% of the legacy estate migrated within 18 months.
  • Windows Server 2003/2008 to 2012 R2 migrations for 150+ server applications — zero downtime for critical banking services supporting 10,000+ users.
  • Standardised packaging workflows and automation practices, reducing average packaging time by 30%.
  • Full ownership from application discovery through CAB approval, UAT coordination and production deployment.

03 — How it works

A proven delivery process, not improvisation

  1. 01

    Discovery & assessment

    Application intake, dependency mapping and compatibility assessment — a prioritised, costed picture of what needs packaging and what can be retired.

  2. 02

    Packaging & virtualisation

    MSI, MSIX or App-V packages built to your standards with PSADT where custom actions are needed, documented and reproducible.

  3. 03

    Testing & UAT

    QA and smoke testing, coordinated UAT with application owners, conflict resolution against Windows application specifications.

  4. 04

    Deployment & support

    CAB-approved rollout through Intune or MECM/SCCM, phased production deployment, incident handling and handover documentation.

04 — FAQ

Common questions

What is application packaging?+

Application packaging prepares software so it can be installed silently, consistently and at scale — as MSI, MSIX or App-V packages distributed through tools like Microsoft Intune or MECM/SCCM. A good package installs without user interaction, follows your organisation's standards and can be deployed, upgraded and removed reliably across thousands of endpoints.

Can you run a full Windows 11 migration?+

Yes — end to end. That includes application discovery and rationalisation, compatibility assessment, packaging and virtualisation of the estate, UAT coordination, CAB governance and phased production rollout, with post-migration support until the programme is closed.

Do you work remotely?+

Yes. Most engagements run fully remote. I'm based in Bucharest, Romania and have delivered for teams across the UK, Ireland, Belgium and beyond — working comfortably within UK and EU business hours.

Which environments and tools do you support?+

Windows 10 and 11, Windows Server 2003 through 2019, Microsoft Intune, MECM/SCCM (2007 to current branch), App-V, MSIX, InstallShield AdminStudio, Wise Package Studio, PSADT, PowerShell, Citrix XenApp, VMware, Active Directory and Group Policy, plus ServiceNow for change and incident management.

How quickly can you start, and how do engagements work?+

Typically within days, not weeks. Engagements are flexible: a fixed-scope packaging batch, a monthly retainer for continuous packaging demand, or a full-time role inside a migration programme. Tell me what you need and you'll get a clear plan and estimate.
