Sorry for my previous mail. i was on the move and i just remembered "Symfony 1.2" ... instead of "symfony (1.4, doctrine 1.2)"
About your initial qustestion: try implement the whole system as a symfony platform. That will allow you to put some order in your code... Those automatizations like sending notifications mails could resume to 2 symfony commands run from a cron job. symfony yourapp:build-notifications symfony project:send-emails Also, the interface could be easily built be using the crud.
