Custom SharePoint Development Services with SPFx
When standard SharePoint features no longer suit how your organisation works, AutomationCore’s SharePoint development services build solutions around your individual processes, users and systems. We make SharePoint Online a connected workspace that reduces manual work and makes information easier to use.
What Our SharePoint Development Services Cover
This service covers tailored SharePoint solutions: from SPFx development and intranet portals to system integrations and long-term support.
-
We build solutions within SharePoint Online and the wider Microsoft 365 environment. This ensures seamless integration with your existing workplace tools and data structure.
-
SPFx is used to create custom web parts, extensions, interfaces and forms when standard SharePoint configuration is not enough.
-
The scope can include full SharePoint intranets or individual portal modules.
-
SharePoint can be connected with Power Platform, Microsoft Graph, Teams and external systems to automate processes and unify data.
-
After launch, we continue providing support: fixes, updates, new features and long-term maintenance.
SharePoint Application
Development with SPFx
The SharePoint Framework (SPFx) allows us to extend modern SharePoint with more functions that are specifically tailored to your business. We develop SPFx web parts, Command Sets, Application Customizers and individual SharePoint forms.
When are such components needed? They can provide role-specific interfaces, tailored data views and connections to Microsoft Graph or external APIs. SPFx development is a great choice when standard SharePoint configuration cannot provide required functionality, user experience or integration depth.

Do You Need Custom
SharePoint Development Services?
SharePoint is a strong foundation, but configuration alone cannot always solve every operational requirement. Teams sometimes reach a point where disconnected tools, manual processes and rigid interfaces create even more work.
Our Microsoft SharePoint development services extend the platform where your business needs more control. Once we start working together, we will audit an existing solution, define requirements, plan the architecture and build within SharePoint Online and Microsoft 365. The result, achieved through our services, is a maintainable solution designed around the work your team needs to complete. To put it shortly, you can benefit from this service if:
- Employees rely on manual workarounds or repetitive tasks that could be automated in SharePoint.
- Information is scattered across multiple systems, making it hard to access a single source of truth.
- Standard SharePoint features do not fully match real user roles, workflows or business processes.
Standard Configuration
Vs Custom Development
Standard SharePoint configuration
Uses built-in SharePoint features such as sites, lists, libraries and permissions
Suitable for general collaboration and document management needs
Relies on standard forms and basic workflows
Limited integration depth with external systems
Faster to implement with minimal configuration effort
Custom SharePoint development
Builds tailored components, applications and interfaces using SPFx
Suitable for complex or role-specific requirements
Enables custom forms, logic and advanced process automation
Supports deeper integration with Microsoft 365, Microsoft Graph and external APIs
Requires development but delivers higher flexibility and scalability
SharePoint Intranet
Development
We build complete SharePoint intranets and individual modules for existing employee portals. A custom intranet can bring news, documents, knowledge and everyday tools into one environment, reducing time spent on switching between systems or searching for reliable information.
A SharePoint employee portal may include features such as document management, news, search, personalised workspaces, process automation and connections to other systems. Each component is designed individually, focusing on user roles and working patterns in your organisation.

Microsoft Graph, Microsoft Teams and REST APIs enable integration with the wider Microsoft 365 ecosystem and external systems, creating a connected environment that reduces duplicate work and brings key actions directly into daily workflows.
How We Develop Custom SharePoint Solutions
1. Analysis of Existing Environment and Your Needs
First of all, we take time to understand your existing SharePoint environment, how your teams use it day to day, and where the main frustrations appear. Then, we identify what can be improved with standard platform capabilities and where SharePoint customization or custom development would be a better choice.
2. Solution Architecture
Once we understand your requirements, we move onto the planning. In this stage, we define SharePoint structure, components, data flows, access requirements and scope.
3. Development and Integration
We develop the agreed SPFx components, applications, forms or portal modules and connect the required systems. Depending on the project, this may include Microsoft Graph, Microsoft Teams, Power Apps, Power Automate or external platforms connected through REST APIs.
4. Testing, Deployment and Ongoing Development
Every system should be tested in real usage conditions to ensure it performs reliably once it is in active use. Microsoft SharePoint development services are no exception, so the solution is tested against real user scenarios before deployment.
Our projects use version-controlled delivery and can include documented source code ownership and handover arrangements agreed at the start.
SharePoint Support
and Maintenance
SPFx and Microsoft 365 Updates
SharePoint and Microsoft 365 evolve continuously, so updates are often required to maintain compatibility and performance. This includes SPFx updates, platform changes and adjustments needed.
Technical Support and Bug Fixes
We provide ongoing technical assistance to investigate and resolve issues that may arise in the delivered SharePoint solution. This includes identifying root causes, fixing bugs and ensuring the system continues to function reliably in day-to-day use.
New Features and Long-Term Maintenance
As your organisation grows, your SharePoint solution may need to evolve as well. We support this through ongoing improvements, new feature development and long-term maintenance.

FAQ
SharePoint development services involve designing and building functionality beyond standard platform configuration. They may include custom applications, SPFx web parts and extensions, forms, intranets, process automation and integrations with Microsoft 365 or external business systems.
SharePoint Framework (or SPFx) is Microsoft’s recommended development model for extending modern SharePoint. It is used to build web parts, extensions and tailored user experiences.
SPFx can be used to build custom web parts, Command Sets, Application Customizers, tailored forms and other extensions for modern SharePoint.
Configuration uses standard SharePoint capabilities such as sites, lists, libraries, permissions and basic workflows, while custom development introduces tailored components (interfaces, logic or other integrations that are needed when standard functionality cannot meet the organisation’s requirements).
Custom SharePoint development services typically require experienced SharePoint and SPFx specialists, as custom solutions must be designed to align with Microsoft 365 architecture, ensure performance and security, and remain maintainable over time.
Yes. SPFx is Microsoft’s recommended model for extending SharePoint Online and supports modern web parts, extensions and other tailored experiences. SPFx solutions can also connect with Microsoft Teams, Microsoft Viva and other Microsoft 365 services, depending on the solution architecture.
We build both complete custom SharePoint intranets and individual modules for existing portals. The scope of these SharePoint intranet services may include employee communication, document management, search, personalised workspaces, process automation and integrations with other business systems.
Yes. SharePoint Online can be integrated with Microsoft Graph, Microsoft Teams, Power Apps, Power Automate and external systems through REST APIs.
SharePoint support and maintenance may include technical assistance, bug fixes, SPFx updates, new feature development and adaptations.
The scope depends on the existing SharePoint and Microsoft 365 environment, user roles, required functionality, data flows, integrations and access requirements. Modernisation or migration needs, testing, deployment and post-launch support arrangements may also affect the project scope.
No. SharePoint Online remains part of Microsoft 365, and Microsoft continues to support modern SharePoint development through SPFx. However, Microsoft may retire individual legacy features or older extensibility models separately, so existing customisations should be reviewed when relevant platform changes are announced.
