Real-World Results with the Power Platform
See how we've helped organizations across various industries transform their operations, unlock insights, and drive efficiency with tailored Power Platform solutions.
The Problem
The client was struggling with inefficient, paper-based data collection on their factory floor. This led to significant delays in reporting, data entry errors, and a lack of real-time visibility into production metrics like Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE).
Key Challenges
- Inaccurate and delayed data from manual tracking sheets.
- No real-time visibility into machine downtime or performance.
- Lengthy weekly reporting cycles to compile and analyze production data.
- Inability to quickly identify and address production bottlenecks.
Our Solution
We developed an integrated solution using Power Apps and Power BI:
- A user-friendly Power App (Canvas) for tablets on the shop floor, allowing operators to easily log production counts, downtime reasons, and quality checks.
- Power Automate flows to instantly push this data into a centralized Dataverse repository.
- A comprehensive Power BI dashboard providing real-time OEE, downtime analysis, and production trend reports accessible to managers on any device.
- Integration with their existing ERP to pull production schedules into the Power App.
The Problem
The client's accounts payable process was entirely manual, involving emails, spreadsheets, and physical paperwork. This resulted in slow approval times, a high risk of duplicate payments, and a lack of visibility into cash flow.
Key Challenges
- Average invoice approval time of 15-20 days.
- High cost per invoice due to manual data entry and follow-up.
- Lack of a centralized system to track invoice status.
- Difficulty enforcing approval hierarchies and compliance policies.
Our Solution
We implemented an end-to-end automation solution using the Power Platform and AI Builder:
- An AI Builder model was trained to intelligently extract key information (vendor, amount, date) from incoming PDF invoices received in a dedicated mailbox.
- A Power Automate flow triggers on new emails, runs the AI model, and logs the extracted data into a SharePoint list for review.
- A dynamic approval workflow routes the invoice to the correct manager based on the amount and department, sending notifications via Teams and email.
- A Power BI dashboard provides a real-time overview of all invoices, their status, and key AP metrics like processing time and spend by vendor.
The Problem
The client lacked a unified view of patient outcomes and clinic resource utilization across their locations. Data was siloed in various systems, making reporting difficult and resource scheduling an inefficient, spreadsheet-driven process.
Key Challenges
- Difficulty in tracking key clinical performance indicators (KPIs) across clinics.
- Inefficient scheduling of specialized medical equipment and staff.
- Compliance concerns with handling sensitive patient data in disparate systems.
- Clinicians lacked easy access to analytics to inform patient care.
Our Solution
We delivered a secure, HIPAA-compliant solution built on the Power Platform for Healthcare:
- A central Power BI dashboard integrating data from their EMR and practice management systems to track patient wait times, appointment volumes, and clinical outcomes.
- A Power App for clinic managers to view and schedule shared medical equipment and specialized staff across different locations, preventing conflicts and maximizing utilization.
- Utilized Dataverse for a secure, compliant data layer with role-based access control to protect sensitive patient information.
- Implemented Power Automate reminders for staff about upcoming equipment schedules and maintenance.
Our Technology Ecosystem
We leverage the full Microsoft stack and beyond to build integrated, robust, and future-proof Power Platform solutions.
What Our Clients Say
We pride ourselves on building strong partnerships and delivering exceptional value. But don't just take our word for it.
"The real-time Power BI dashboards CIS built for us have completely transformed our operational meetings. We're no longer looking at last week's data; we're making decisions based on what's happening right now. It's been a massive competitive advantage."
"I was skeptical about 'low-code' for our complex financial approval workflows. CIS proved me wrong. They built a secure, auditable Power App and Power Automate solution that has cut our processing time by 75% and delighted our users."
"The Center of Excellence framework CIS helped us establish was critical. It gave us the governance and structure needed to empower our business users as citizen developers without creating a 'wild west' of unsecured apps. Their strategic guidance was invaluable."

"We needed to modernize a critical but aging Access database. The CIS team expertly migrated the logic and data into a robust Power Apps and Dataverse solution. It's faster, more secure, and accessible from anywhere. A flawless project."
"Working with CIS on our clinical analytics platform was a fantastic experience. They understood the nuances of healthcare data and compliance, delivering a Power BI solution that provides deep insights while ensuring patient privacy."
Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions? We have answers. Here are some common inquiries about our Microsoft Power Platform services.
Think of them as three pillars: Power BI is for visualizing and analyzing data (the 'See' part). Power Apps is for creating custom applications to act on that data (the 'Act' part). Power Automate is for automating the processes and workflows that connect them all (the 'Automate' part). Together, they form a powerful platform for business transformation.
Absolutely. The Power Platform is built on Microsoft's enterprise-grade security infrastructure, inheriting the same security, privacy, and compliance capabilities as Azure and Microsoft 365. We enhance this by implementing robust governance, Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies, and role-based access controls through a Center of Excellence (CoE) to ensure your data is always protected.
Yes. The Power Platform has over 1000 pre-built connectors for popular services like Salesforce, SAP, Oracle, and many more. For systems without a standard connector, we can build custom connectors or use RPA (Robotic Process Automation) in Power Automate to interact with legacy applications, ensuring seamless integration across your entire tech stack.
A Center of Excellence (CoE) is a framework of governance, training, and support that allows you to manage the Power Platform at scale. It helps you nurture citizen development and drive innovation while preventing app sprawl, security risks, and inconsistent standards. We help you set up a CoE to ensure you get the maximum value from your investment securely and sustainably.
Microsoft 365 licenses often include foundational Power Platform capabilities. For more advanced features (like premium connectors, Dataverse, or RPA), specific per-user or per-flow licenses are needed. As part of our initial consultation, we conduct a thorough analysis of your requirements to recommend the most cost-effective licensing strategy, ensuring you only pay for what you need.
The beauty of the Power Platform is speed. A simple application for a single department might be developed and deployed in just a few weeks. More complex, enterprise-wide solutions with multiple integrations could take a few months. Our AI-augmented approach and agile methodology are focused on delivering a Minimum Viable Product (MVP) quickly so you can start seeing value as soon as possible.
