Philippe’ s rule for sourcing the right tools is pragmatic:“ The first question we ask ourselves is,‘ can we buy it? Is it available off-the-shelf?’”

Philippe explains that this centralisation allows them to update the tech stack, which changes fast, across the entire product line without rebuilding every individual application.
