Management consultancies: form collection using Laravel

Summary

A form collection blueprint for management consultancies built with Laravel on Ample. Domain schema:

• client_entities (name, industry, primary_contact_role): client organizations;
• engagements (client_entity_id, scope_title, phase, period_start, period_end): engagement periods and phases;
• workstreams (engagement_id, name, owner, status, due_at): tracked workstreams;
• deliverables (engagement_id, title, version, object_key, released_at): versioned deliverables shared with the client;
• uploads (id, owner_reference, object_key, content_type, size, uploaded_at): validated uploads linked to their owner.

Public information: service offerings and case studies (anonymized), consultant profiles, engagement model. Kept out of scope until handling is reviewed: client strategy documents, financial models, interview notes. Client strategy material is confidential; authorization is modeled per engagement and no compliance claim is made. Technical basis verified on Laravel: content-type and size validation that rejects disallowed files, an object written to a private bucket and a row linking the record to the object key (reject=ok upload=ok linked=ok).

Resource Requirements

• primitive:compute
• primitive:postgres
• primitive:s3-compatible-object-storage

Infrastructure Requirements

1. Compute

   • Status: Verified
   • Summary: Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs that auto-pause when idle and wake on request; sizes are the priced VM sizes.

2. Postgres

   • Status: Verified
   • Summary: Managed PostgreSQL 16 runs in its own microVM and is auto-provisioned when an app needs a database and no DATABASE_URL is supplied.

3. S3-compatible object storage

   • Status: Verified
   • Summary: Buckets are S3-compatible with issued credentials; PutObject and GetObject are verified by canary. Other S3 operations are not verified.

Workflow Steps

1. Model the management consultancies domain
   Create the tables client_entities, engagements, workstreams, deliverables, uploads. Client organizations live in client_entities; keep the sensitive classes (client strategy documents, financial models, interview notes) out of this schema.

2. Workflow step 1
   Model document requests per engagement with due dates and status.

3. Workflow step 2
   Validate uploaded files (type, size) before storing them in the private bucket and linking them to the request.

4. Workflow step 3
   Authorize uploads by client entity.

5. Workflow step 4
   Deploy and verify rejection of disallowed files and a linked upload.

6. Deploy
   Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result. Re-running with no change is a no-op.

   ample deploy . --name  --public --env S3_ENDPOINT=... --env S3_REGION=... --env S3_BUCKET=... --env S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID=... --env S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=...
   

7. Verify
   Run the pattern self-test(s) from the example (/p/browser-file-uploads) and your own acceptance checks for the management consultancies workflow.
