Microsoft Teams

Teams Implementation

Enhancing your organization’s productivity and agility by gaining control over your digital work environment is crucial. As Teams continues to evolve, it’s essential to learn how to implement and manage apps, configure Viva, integrate adaptive cards, and set up customized notifications to keep your employees engaged and focused.

Microsoft SharePoint

SharePoint Site Implementation(s)

We can help your organization leverage SharePoint Hubs and Teams unique infrastructure to define your vision and build customized business processes. We’ll ensure that your solutions match your operational needs, including vendor and supplier integration, and that your Teams and sites are set up with the flexibility to collaborate externally while keeping your data secure.

Microsoft SharePoint

SharePoint and Teams Cloud Infrastructure

We can help your organization migrate and upgrade to cloud infrastructure by providing best practices and recommendations for Teams and SharePoint Farm administrators. We can also suggest third-party products and services to ensure you have the right migration utilities and backup systems in place. Once set up, we’ll work with you to define your vision for Hubs, Teams, Sites, and Extranet access for partners, suppliers, or external collaborators.

Microsoft SharePoint

SharePoint Intranet (Hub) Implementation

We’ll design and implement a modern, mobile-friendly Intranet that highlights key news, events, and resources, operating as your organization’s true one-stop shop for company-wide information. Of course, we’ll also cover best practices for document libraries, demonstrate audience targeting, and help everyone understand how to properly sync and un-sync One Drive (Microsoft, if you only knew!).

Microsoft 365

Customized M365 Productivity Solutions

Once you realize what’s possible, we can build automated systems for data collection, management, and retrieval. Instead of emailing Excel attachments, you can simply share a link to the always up-to-date SharePoint hosted file repository. Set up custom lists and libraries to manage work assignments, collect submissions, integrate formal approvals, or move data into internal lists, database, or Dataverse table.

Microsoft Power Apps

Power Apps and Power Automate

When you need more advanced capabilities than what SharePoint lists can offer, consider Power Applications. With PowerApps we can connect to a variety of systems including SQL Server, Oracle, Salesforce, or the Dataverse. Let’s face it, humans are prone to mistakes and require (lots of) training. So what if we could put in more checks to reduce errors while also automating those tedious processes.

Microsoft Power BI

Business Intelligence/Power BI

What good is having all this excellent data if your organization can’t act on it? Power BI has much to offer – but it’s not something one learns overnight. From data ingestion and transformation to understanding and linking data hierarchies, configuring row level security to creating DAX measures, there’s a lot to do before you get to the dashboards and data visualizations.

Microsoft Dataverse

Dataverse (and Master Data)

Master Data Management (MDM) involves managing critical data assets across an organization in a centralized and controlled manner - think single source of truth of products, product categories, regions – pretty much anything that goes into your financial reports. Microsoft Dataverse (originally an extension of Dynamics 365) is a full database technology like SQL without the heaving overhead of Azure.

Microsoft Syntex

Syntex is a premium set of content AI (artificial intelligence) services offered with Microsoft 365 to help organizations process documents, generate new content, and automate workflows with documents. Our clients are always looking for ways to work smarter and Syntex is a great gateway into the AI space.

Clients initially work with us to stand up an Intranet site. They soon discover that there is so much more than just SharePoint. We build end-to-end business solutions using the M365 and Azure platforms.

We pride ourselves in understanding and documenting our client’s requirements (and challenges) and despite what may look like pretty web pages much of the work is behind the scenes: architecting the solution, solving problems, and automating activities. We’ve been retained by many clients for several years - as once a company or organization realizes there are easier and more effective ways to manage data and information - there’s no going back.

Our Purpose: We create order, clarity, and productivity via digital transformation solutions.
