Drupal agency for your projects in Paris

Our developers have Drupal certifications (from Acquia, the company founded by Drupal's creator) and vetted roles on Drupal.org, the status that rewards commitment and quality contributions within the community. Indeed, we contribute as often as possible by developing and maintaining new modules. We now have more than 20, including the Page Cache Exclusion module, a performance tool already used by over 500 sites. We are also very proud to support French-speaking community events by sponsoring DrupalCamps such as the one in Rennes in 2024 and the one in Grenoble in 2026.

Accessibility and eco-design are not options added at the end of a project. They are integrated from the design phase and in the way we develop Drupal sites. Our approach is based in particular on the recommendations of the RGAA and the RGESN, with internal contacts dedicated to accessibility and eco-design.

Our work clearly reflects this approach: several of our projects have achieved high scores in RGAA audits, including 99% for the Toulon site, 96% for Anact, 85% for Elior and 83% for AFT.  

We also organize eco-design workshops from the UX phase to identify levers for reducing environmental impact even before development.

Our Drupal Starter includes by default many good eco-design practices, accessibility, and performance. This approach makes it possible to build Drupal sites that are more efficient, accessible, and high-performing, while streamlining their implementation.

For several years, bluedrop.fr has been developing its own tools, products, and methods to industrialize Drupal projects without sacrificing their customization. Our Drupal Starter is the foundation of this approach: a preconfigured Drupal base, maintained and enhanced by our teams, which includes ready-to-use components, Drupal recipes, and optimizations dedicated to performance, security, SEO, accessibility, and eco-design. It allows us to quickly launch a project on a robust and proven foundation.

This industrialization logic is also found in our products and development: DropFactory to industrialize the creation and management of Drupal sites, DropCampus for the needs of universities and educational institutions, our job board solutions and recruitment platforms, as well as our work around Drupal andartificial intelligence.

In this way, we build on completed projects to continually enrich our technical foundation and components. Rather than starting from scratch for each project, we reuse proven blocks, which we adapt to the specific needs of each organization. This approach allows us to reduce startup times, make developments more reliable, and devote more time to business challenges and the user experience.

A Drupal project is about more than just development. At bluedrop.fr, we bring together all the necessary skills in-house to support your project from start to finish, without increasing the number of intermediaries:

• Development teams who excel in technical design, migrations to Drupal 11, multisite architectures, maintenance, and application management.
• Project managers who oversee your project from beginning to end and ensure its progress: planning, prioritization, team coordination, adherence to deadlines.
• Dedicated specialists for all related topics (accessibility, SEO, security, GDPR, eco-design) available from the design phase and throughout the project—not just at delivery.

This integrated organization allows us to keep all the expertise within a single team, to facilitate communication, and to ensure a true continuity between consulting, design, development, deployment, and maintenance.

We support a wide range of organizations.

To name just a few examples in Paris and the Île-de-France region, we work with:

• major accounts such as Elior Group and STEF,
• cultural organizations like l'École des Loisirs and the Maison des Pratiques Artistiques Amateurs,
• institutions such as the French Office for Biodiversity (OFB),
• research bodies like INRAE,
• as well as several universities and higher education institutions, including Panthéon-Sorbonne, Sorbonne Nouvelle, EHESS, and Campus Condorcet.

Drupal is a CMS particularly suited to complex, scalable and structuring web projects.

• Flexible : it adapts to your business needs and specific architectures.
• Powerful : advanced management of content, users, workflows, multilingual and multisite.
• High-performing and secure : a solid foundation for high-traffic sites and demanding projects.
• Accessible and eco-designed : Drupal makes it possible to address these issues right from the design stage.
• SEO & GEO friendly : its ability to structure content makes it easier for search engines and AI to understand.
• Sustainable and open source : you retain control of your platform and can make it evolve over time.

In short : Drupal is an especially relevant choice for institutional sites, portals, universities, large companies and multisite projects.  

It is also becoming an increasingly suitable choice for startups and small businesses, especially since the arrival of Drupal CMS which offers a ready-to-use installation and a low-code approach. It simplifies the management of complex, multilingual or multisite web projects without sacrificing the historical security or robustness of the core. Furthermore, thanks to our Drupal Starter, we can also launch projects on a preconfigured and proven foundation in order to reduce development time and costs.

Yes. Migrating Drupal sites to Drupal 11 is one of our areas of expertise. We can handle auditing the existing site, defining the migration strategy, development, content transfer, testing, and go-live, all while ensuring the site's performance and SEO are maintained.

We start with a current system audit : Drupal architecture, modules, performance, security, technical debt, and history of changes. This phase helps identify priorities and potential risks.

We then organize a gradual familiarization with the site and its ecosystem, before defining with you an appropriate monitoring method : prioritizing requests, estimating updates, corrective and preventive maintenance.

The goal : to ensure the continuity of the site while improving it over time, with a team that gradually becomes familiar with your platform, your challenges, and your constraints.

An ambitious Drupal project (redesign, multisite, migration to Drupal 11, etc.) is not determined by the distance between your headquarters and your provider's, but by their true ability to master a demanding CMS. Drupal tolerates very little approximation : a poorly designed architecture, an inadequately managed module, or a rushed migration will come with a cost months later, in terms of performance, security, or technical debt.

That is why many organizations in Paris and the Île-de-France region choose their Drupal partner based on expertise rather than location: recognized certifications, active contributions to the Drupal.org community, theability to industrialize development while preserving project customization.

Our organization works daily with clients all over France. It was designed for this: planning workshops and steering committees either remotely or on site according to your needs, dedicated contacts for accessibility, eco-design and SEO available at every stage of the project, and a complete in-house team to avoid an excess of intermediaries. This organization allows us to support both a Latin Quarter institution and a large group based in La Défense with the same level of commitment as if we were working from your offices.
