Microsoft Power Apps is a powerful tool that can help SMEs (small and medium sized organisations) automate their processes, improve workflows, and ultimately drive growth.
Power Apps can be used to build a wide range of business applications designed to aid businesses in improving productivity, efficiency, data accuracy and more.
What can Microsoft Power Apps be used for?
1. Data and support management
A common use case for Microsoft Power Apps is to create customised applications for recording information in a controlled and robust format. These can be used to collect data from customers or employees, create surveys, or even provide customer/ user support.
For example, a business could use Power Apps for submitting internal support tickets. The App could be customised to include relevant fields and options required by the organisation for remediating the specific issue or request, whether that be IT support or building and maintenance issues.
2. Inventory management
Power Apps can be used to create custom inventory management systems that can help businesses keep track of their stock levels, orders and shipments. As an example, a small business could use Power Apps to create an inventory management app that tracks the quantity of products in stock, generates purchase orders when inventory levels run low, and even sends alerts when a product is out of stock.
3. Project management
Power Apps can be used to create custom project management systems that can help organisations manage their projects, tasks and deadlines. A small business could use Power Apps to create a project management app that tracks project progress, assigns tasks to team members, and sends reminders when deadlines are approaching.
4. Employee and team management
Power Apps can be used to create custom employee management systems that can help manage employees and teams, with tasks that span across everything from holiday approval, appraisal processes, through to providing a means of standardised communication for internal news or perhaps a way of logging business improvement suggestions.
By leveraging the power of Power Apps, organisations can streamline their operations, improve their productivity, and ultimately achieve their business goals through the use of easily adoptable technology.
