The decisions that matter in a project are made before the project truly begins.
Nous conseillons les institutions culturelles et académiques au moment où l’essentiel se décide.
Contact us →There is a moment in every digital project when everything is at stake. Before writing the brief, before choosing vendors, before the first steering meetings.
It is the moment when you listen, analyse, and frame. When you draw the roadmap that will guide everything that follows — and determine whether the project will stand the test of time.
This moment is often poorly supported. Generalist consultants do not know this sector from the inside. Delivery agencies have an interest in fast decisions. And internal teams, however skilled, do not always have the distance or the time.
Mazagran Conseil steps in at that moment. With twenty years of concrete projects in French cultural and academic institutions, and no interest to serve but the quality of the decisions you are about to make.
Delphine Vallois and Thibaut Laurent, founders of Mazagran Conseil.
Let's talk about your projectBefore deciding what to do, you need to know exactly where you stand. We analyse your digital landscape without complacency — tools, uses, blind spots — and benchmark it against comparable institutions. This work produces a clear, well-argued roadmap that you can defend internally and that stands the test of time.
A project that is poorly scoped upfront costs twice as much to correct mid-course. We guide you from the precise definition of your needs to the selection of the right vendor: workshops, functional specification, tender analysis, decision support. You enter delivery with solid foundations, a vendor chosen for the right reasons, and a shared vision of what the project must deliver.
The moment a project is handed over to a vendor is often when decision-makers lose their grip. We stay present throughout delivery: steering committees, compliance control, functional acceptance testing. So that what was decided is indeed what is delivered. Not to watch over, but so you don't have to manage it alone.
Mazagran Conseil is a new structure. The experience behind it is not.
Pendant 20 ans, Delphine et Thibaut ont conçu et piloté des projets numériques pour les institutions culturelles et académiques françaises les plus exigeantes.
Delphine and Thibaut met at the École des Arts Décoratifs in Paris.
Ils collaborent depuis 20 ans. Ensemble ils couvrent ce qu’un projet numérique exige vraiment.
Delphine brings technical and methodological rigour. She understands architectures, CMS platforms, and production constraints — and knows how to translate ambitions into realistic, demanding functional briefs.
