Resource management systems
Modern web development frameworks, combined with cloud technologies, make a great candidate for building administration systems to manage all kinds of physical and digital resources. Physical resources include things like machinery, facilities and people where as digital resources include things like private documents, archive materials and digital media.
Let's have a look a some use cases for web-based resource management systems.
Physical Resource Management Systems
Apartment Complex Management Systems: I have built custom software to keep a history log of incidents and actions taken on various facilities that make up an apartment complex, including bin rooms, bike sheds and security systems.
Machine Maintenance Reporting Systems: A well-operated factory relies on reports to track the maintenance and operation of its machinery. I have developed admin systems to set up maintenance schedules for equipment and keep track of reports for the purposes of auditing.
Staff Management Systems: My clients sometimes require custom solutions to manage their staff members. These systems can be used to grant access to private company documents, as well as send bulk notifications to various groups of staff.
Customer Management Systems: I have built systems to keep track of customer lists and personal information with the ability make once-off payment requests as well as automated subscriptions.

Digital Resource Management Systems
Digital Material Archives: Management documents and PDFs, as well as audio, video and imagery. I have built admin systems to management digital archives for museum exhibitions and publicly funded repositories.
Franchisee Material Portals: Manage private company documents and print materials while granting various levels of access to each franchisee of your organisation.
The Laravel framework for resource management systems
There's already a lot of material on my website about the Laravel framework, so I won't go on about it too much again here. Basically, Laravel is the best PHP framework and it gives a developer like me superpowers. It's a great foundation for any custom software and makes continued development of complicated systems much much easier.
Filament administration panels for resource management systems
Filament is an amazing set of interface elements for building administration dashboards, and it sits like the icing on the top of Laravel. It's flexible enough for any administration task. It can save hundreds of hours of work over the course of development.
In summary
A custom resource management system can do things than no pre-made software can. Talk to me if you think that your organisation may require a custom resource management system.
