For Nacken Hillebrand Partner, DEVWARE developed a custom web application for digitizing HR processes. The Microsoft integration with Microsoft 365 and Azure AD enables seamless leave requests, automated approvals, and full transparency for HR teams.
Nacken Hillebrand Partner is a mid-sized tax consultancy with around 50 employees. For HR, the company relied on a mix of Excel spreadsheets, manual email coordination, and a fragmented HR tool — a patchwork that caused growing problems as the team expanded. Leave management in particular was error-prone and time-consuming: requests were sometimes approved twice, overviews didn't match up, and follow-up questions piled up.
Devware was commissioned to develop a central solution for leave management and integrate it into the existing Microsoft infrastructure (Microsoft 365, Azure AD). The goal was to digitize leave requests, automate approval workflows, and support HR managers with meaningful overviews — without additional licensing costs for external HR systems.
We developed a custom web application fully integrated into the customer's Microsoft 365 environment. The application is built on ASP.NET Core on the backend with a modern JavaScript frontend, authenticated via Azure Active Directory (Azure AD).
Key features at a glance:
Since introducing the solution, NHP has significantly reduced the manual effort involved in leave management. Follow-up questions to the HR department have noticeably decreased, requests are documented transparently, and approvals are fully traceable. The solution runs reliably, was well received by staff, and forms the foundation for further automation steps in HR.
