End-to-end IT stack for an aged-care provider

Three coordinated deliverables for Norfolk Court Resthome, a dementia care facility in Dargaville, NZ: payroll automation, public website, and Microsoft 365 tenant.

03 — the website

The one part you can see

The public website is the deliverable Norfolk Court's families actually visit — the most visible of the three. A custom web app built in Python on AWS: staff post news and newsletters themselves through a secure dashboard, with automated deploys and infrastructure as code. Live in production at norfolkcourt.co.nz.

norfolkcourt.co.nz — the home page as families first see it.
The facility's own 'Watch Our Story' loop — the real building, no stock footage.
  • A secure staff dashboard for posting news and newsletters — no developer in the loop.
  • Built in Python on AWS, with automated deploys and infrastructure as code.
  • One responsive layout — reception desk to a relative's phone.
  • The facility's own 'Watch Our Story' video on the home hero — the real building, no stock imagery.

04 — microsoft 365

The tenant nobody sees

Every mailbox, login and shared file at Norfolk Court runs on a Microsoft 365 tenant we stood up and hardened. It's the least visible deliverable — nothing to screenshot — but the one the whole team touches every day.

Mailboxes & identity

Per-staff Exchange Online accounts and shared mailboxes on one managed domain — MX and DNS cut over with no mail lost.

Security baselines

MFA enforced, conditional access, and Microsoft's recommended baselines applied across the tenant.

Shared drives

SharePoint and OneDrive libraries replacing ad-hoc file sharing, with least-privilege access groups.

Staff onboarding

A repeatable join-and-leave runbook so accounts and access track the roster — documented for handover.

05 — payroll

The Moonbell payroll engine

The facility's payroll runs on Moonbell — facial-recognition clock-in, multi-signal fraud checks, and a manager dashboard that syncs approved timesheets straight to Xero. It grew into a standalone product, so it keeps its own full case study.
