The modules

Unified Inventory Layer

Your ITAM, Microsoft Intune MDM and our lightweight Windows agent feeding one normalised view. An alias resolver untangles the messy real-world product names from each source, so "Microsoft Edge", "Microsoft Edge Update" and "Edge GameAssist" aren't all treated as the same product.

5Rs Rationalisation Engine

Every product - catalogued or not - gets a per-app, per-version recommendation: Retain, Reduce, Replace, Remove or Replatform, driven by usage telemetry, exposure and category. Set actions and categories on any application in the estate, with reviewer, date and notes recorded.

Self-Service Packaging

Choose an application and the platform downloads the latest release and wraps it in PSAppDeployToolkit v3 to your client standards: install syntax, audit-key blocks, security hardening and a generated build document. A live checklist shows exactly what each PSADT section does and where. The skilled work that goes out to a packaging house at thousands of pounds per app is self-served in minutes.

In-Browser PSADT Editor

Adjust the generated Deploy-Application.ps1 right in the console - syntax-highlighted, split by section, with one-click snippets for installs, registry, files, services, firewall and deferral prompts. Every save is parse-checked and backed up before it's written, so a broken edit can't ship.

Version Intelligence

A Product Master view over every application in the estate - thousands of products - showing the true latest version and a working download source, with the gaps flagged so you can close them. Semantic version comparison kills false "update available" alerts, and you own the data: point a monitor at any vendor page, pick the version with a CSS selector, test it live, and it feeds the estate.

Per-Device View

Drill into any single device: the applications installed on it, the minutes they're actually used, zombie-app categorisation and the licence-reclaim potential - machine by machine. Spot the software nobody opens and the seats you're paying for twice, then act on them.

What it finds, and what it does

Application Packaging takes a product from inventory to a deployable, documented package built to your client standards - then ships it.

One normalised inventory from ITAM, Intune and the agent, with a resolver that untangles messy real-world product names.
A per-app, per-version 5Rs recommendation - Retain, Reduce, Replace, Remove or Replatform - driven by real usage.
The latest release fetched and wrapped in PSAppDeployToolkit v3 to your standards, with a generated build document.
Per-device usage and licence-reclaim potential, so you right-size before you package.

Finished packages import straight into Microsoft Intune or Configuration Manager and assign to a test group - detection to test deployment in minutes.
