Power Platform Center of Excellence Framework: 4-6 Wks

Insight

This engagement covers every aspect of successfully defining and implementing a Power Platform Center of Excellence Framework, including enabling and supporting your users and makers.

Power Platform Center of Excellence Framework

Business challenge

Microsoft’s Power Platform® enables users to solve their own business problems efficiently and without development bottlenecks. However, if no guardrails are in place, users can quickly build tools that potentially violate internal guidelines. How can you enable your users with these tools while still complying with IT and business compliance standards?

How we help

Our four to six week engagement covers every aspect of successfully defining and implementing a Power Platform Center of Excellence Framework, including enabling and supporting your users and makers. The Power Platform Center of Excellence Framework walks you through creating a Center of Excellence (CoE); examining your environments and Data Loss Prevention (DLP) strategies; discussing Microsoft Teams® and Power Platform integrations; showing the capabilities of Power Platform admin center; determining best practices for app migration; and helping you understand what is required to successfully manage the platform in the long term.

At the end of the engagement, we will have successfully implemented a robust and manageable Power Platform CoE Plan, giving you the confidence to operate and grow the Power Platform footprint in your organization.
