About Pierre

You are an artisan, a VSE manager, or a growing freelancer.
You juggle between job sites, clients, suppliers, and administration.
You bill for 35 hours but work 60 — and half of that is without added value.

I will take care of everything that takes you away from your real job.

My background: 10 years managing the operations and logistics of complex projects (Factory, GL Events, Groupe Eddifis, DBS Drive..). Coordinating service providers, managing simultaneous job sites, transport, suppliers, field and office work. I've seen firsthand the cost of poor organization: late quotes, job sites running over, unpaid invoices gathering dust, poorly coordinated suppliers.

Today, I'm putting this experience to work for freelancers and small businesses that don't (yet) have the means for a full-time office manager or operations manager.

What I handle — administration:

— Structured, compliant quotes, sent without delay
— Invoicing, reminders, payment tracking (compliant with electronic invoicing 2026-2027)
— Treasury: you know where you stand in real-time
— Accounting preparation: a clean monthly file for your accountant
— Expenses (automated OCR)

What I handle — operational:

— Job site coordination and multi-site planning
— Management of service providers, subcontractors, suppliers
— Transport and logistics management (planning, emergencies, rescheduling)
— Operational monitoring: what needs to move forward, what's blocked, who to call

My added value: I also build custom tools to automate what can be automated (mini-CRM, job site tracking, quote generation).

Two possible formats:

1. One-off mission: audit + reorganization (admin and/or ops), typically 2 to 4 weeks

2. Regular support: monthly package, you keep your mind free

Experience

  • OptiPro
    Founder
    March 2026 - Today (3 months)
    Vence, France
    After 10 years as head of logistics and operations, I chose to put my field experience to work for the digital world.

    Today, I build websites, business applications, and AI automations — primarily no-code, and using AI as a development co-pilot (Claude, Cursor) when the project requires it.

    What sets me apart from a traditional developer: I understand your constraints before coding. I know what it's like to manage teams, deadlines, and workflows. My tools are designed for people who work, not for geeks.

    What I deliver:

    Custom showcase websites & web applications
    SaaS applications with user management, payments (Stripe), subscriptions
    Automations & API integrations (Telegram, Pennylane, Make...)
    Tools integrating AI (ChatGPT, Claude, data analysis)
    Database connections (Supabase) & back-end (Trigger.dev)
    Deployment & hosting (Vercel, Railway)

    My approach: No-code first, then AI. I always choose the simplest solution that truly solves the problem.

    Based in the Alpes-Maritimes — available remotely or on-site depending on the mission.
