Your methodology deserves more than a spreadsheet.
Bespoke calculators, dashboards, and diagnostic frameworks for ops-transformation consultants and boutique firms across the UK and EU. Fixed-price, 4 to 8 weeks. Built by an engineer who’s done the operations work, not just the software.

Methodology productised, three shapes.
You bring the methodology you’ve spent years refining. Valoren turns it into a web tool your client opens twice. Once when you walk them through it, and again when they want to check a number on their own.
Calculators
Benefit-sizing tools, cost models, ROI calculators. The number that lands in your client's deck and survives the CFO's questions.

Two gaps in your buying options.
Option A
Most freelance developers ship clean software but cannot model your operational logic. Polished UI on a calculation that is subtly wrong. You only catch it when a client does.
Option B
Most consultancies have the operational literacy but cannot ship clean software. They subcontract the build, lose control of the output, and lose the margin.
Valoren sits in that gap. Built by an operations engineer who reads the calculations the way an operations practitioner would, then writes the code that runs them.
You bring the methodology. Valoren makes it client-ready.
For solo consultants
Productise the methodology once. Open it in every client meeting.
One engagement turns the spreadsheet you walk a client through into a tool they open with you. The methodology you have spent years refining stops living in your head and starts working client-side.
For boutique firms
Arm every senior consultant with the same methodology, ready to walk a client through.
One tool, branded as yours, deployed across the partnership. Junior associates stop building the benefit case from scratch. Seniors stop QA-ing junior arithmetic. The methodology is the same in every client room because the tool is the same.

How a Valoren engagement runs
Stage 01
Methodology.
Every engagement starts with a free 15-minute intro call. If there is a fit, a paid 90-minute scoping session captures the working session you walk a client through: spreadsheets, decision trees, the heuristics in your head.
Week 0, intro call then scoping session
Stage 02
Specification.
The methodology becomes a one-page tool spec: inputs, calculations, edge cases, the moments where the tool defers to your judgment. You sign off before a single line of code.
Week 1, spec signed and scoping fee credited
Stage 03
Build.
Production-grade engineering on a stack you or your team can pick up later: TypeScript, Next.js, FastAPI, Python. Two reviews, mid-build and pre-handover. No subcontracting, no surprises.
Weeks 2 to 5, build and review
Stage 04
Ship.
Deployed under your domain, branded as your tool, code handed over. Optional 3-month maintenance retainer for the iteration that always shows up after live use. Then it is yours.
Week 6 onwards, live with your clients
Three shapes, fixed scope, fixed price.
The right shape is decided in the scoping session. Build pricing arrives in your inbox the day after, and stays fixed once we sign.
One tool
4 weeks
One methodology, one tool, branded for your client. The shape most engagements take.
Multi-step
6 weeks
Multi-step tool or live dashboard. More sophisticated calculation logic, deeper customisation.
Bespoke
8+ weeks
Multi-user, integrations, custom infrastructure, non-trivial mathematical modelling.
Built. Deployed. In a client's hands.
A benefit-sizing calculator built for an independent operations consultant. The methodology lived in a spreadsheet they walked clients through. Now it’s a tool the client opens, runs, and trusts in front of their team.
Names withheld until written permission. Walkthrough under NDA on request.

Run by one operations engineer in Manchester.
Valoren is run by Mostafa Dardir. Operations engineer, software builder. Years of operations practice (process, throughput, KPI, benefit sizing) running alongside years of shipping production software in TypeScript and Python. The rare overlap that makes operational logic come out right the first time.
Tools-only. No standalone consulting. If a client needs ops advice, they get sent back to you.
Common questions.
Is Valoren a one-person business?
Yes, today. One named senior builder per engagement, never subcontracted. The person you scope the engagement with is the person who absorbs the methodology and writes the code. Engagement contracts include a knowledge-transfer clause and full code handover, so continuity isn't dependent on me. As Valoren grows, the model stays the same: one named senior builder per engagement.
Why not a freelance developer at half the rate?
Freelance devs ship code; most can't model your operational logic. You spend QA time correcting their calculations and the tool launches with subtle bugs you only catch when a client does. The cheaper day rate becomes effectively double after correction time.
Why is the scoping call paid?
The 90-minute scoping session is a working session with a real deliverable: a one-page tool spec, a pricing recommendation, a timing estimate. You walk away with that whether you book the build or not. Charging for it signals it's real work, not a pitch. The fee is creditable against the build if you book within 30 days.
How do I know your code is any good?
Live sample work, walkthrough on request under NDA. Code is yours to inspect on handover. The stack is standard (Next.js, FastAPI, TypeScript, Python) so any developer can pick it up later.
What happens if you disappear?
Engagement contracts include a knowledge-transfer clause and full code handover. Your tool runs on your infrastructure, on standard tech, in a repo you own. If continuity matters, the contract can include a designated handover developer before the build starts.
Why don't you sell ops advice too?
Tools-only by design. If Valoren also sold ops advice, Valoren would compete with you instead of partnering with you. The cleanest commercial relationship is the one where you keep the consulting relationship and Valoren is your build partner.
Ready when you are
Productise the methodology.
Free 15-minute intro call to check the fit. If there is one, the next step is a paid 90-minute scoping session. You walk away with a one-page tool spec and a pricing recommendation, whether you book the build or not. The fee is creditable if you do.
