Operations & implementation

A reliable path from setup to daily operations.

Open source gives your organisation a choice: operations within your own IT team or technical support directly from the development team. The right model is the one that fits your capacity.

Three questions for your operating model

Define location, responsibility and support.

Infrastructure and support are not a fixed package. You can decide which responsibilities stay in-house and where outside support creates capacity.

01

Where does artwork run?

Hosting location

The technical location follows your requirements and existing infrastructure.

  • Your own server
  • Your data centre
  • Closed intranet
  • Dedicated hosted instance
02

Who is responsible?

Technical operations

Responsibility remains with your own IT team or is assigned directly to Caldero Systems as the development team.

  • Your IT team
  • Caldero Systems as development team
03

How much support do you need?

Support level

The scope remains flexible, from an independent start to complete technical operations.

  • Documentation & community
  • Implementation & migration
  • Training & support
  • Ongoing operations

The software remains the same in every combination: all modules, your own data and no provider lock-in.

Open paths

Your own IT team or direct support from development.

Organise operations entirely within your organisation or hand selected tasks through to full technical responsibility to Caldero Systems.

From idea to daily work

Implementation starts with your workflows.

Not every module needs to launch on day one. A clear starting point, confident key users and gradual activation create a sustainable introduction.

  1. 01

    Orient

    Define goals, participating teams and a useful starting scope.

  2. 02

    Set up

    Prepare infrastructure, roles, permissions and the organisation’s core structure.

  3. 03

    Bring data across

    Review, map and migrate existing data in a controlled process.

  4. 04

    Try it in practice

    Key users work with real workflows and refine the configuration.

  5. 05

    Expand

    Further teams and modules join when the organisation and its data are ready.

Technical rider

What reliable operations need to clarify.

Every production setup needs clear responsibilities, regardless of the chosen partner. These topics therefore belong on the table early.

Infrastructure & access

Servers, network, domain, certificates and availability are planned around the organisation.

Identity & permissions

Local accounts, LDAP/Active Directory or OIDC/SSO meet fine-grained permissions in artwork.

Updates & backups

Responsibility, rhythm, retention and recovery are agreed clearly.

Monitoring & support

It is clear who detects incidents, prioritises them and works with the responsible people.

Data & integrations

Migrations, API, Sage, exports and calendar subscriptions are considered as one system.

Further development

New requirements can be built internally or developed together with the open project.

Service package · directly from development

Caldero Systems as your partner.

If you want to outsource technical and organisational responsibility, Caldero Systems can support artwork from the first data import through to ongoing operations. No custom development engagement is required. The team works on the source code every day, connecting operations, support and any future development without detours.

  • Development team behind artwork
  • Consulting, setup and operations from one team
  • Migration from legacy systems and individual data sets
  • Managed hosting or operations on your infrastructure
  • Updates, backups and technical monitoring
  • Direct support with a dedicated service contact
  • Training and workshops for key users and administrators
  • Service without requiring custom development
  • Individual development and integrations

The service package can be used independently of any custom development. artwork remains open source, your data remains transferable and the operating model can still be changed.
