Power Platform Adoption Framework

Cloud transformation, modernisation, management and governance with Microsoft’s next-generation cloud application platform.

Book your assessment

We are experiencing a generational transition in the way organisations use, buy, and operate software. The past era focused on implementing point solutions to solve specific business needs. Today’s forward-looking organisations are taking platform-first approaches, deploying solutions to emerging challenges in less time and at a lower cost through integration with other processes and data than what was previously possible.

Organisations today are leveraging Microsoft’s cloud application platform—including Power Platform, Azure, and Modern Workplace—to digitally transform and reap the rewards.

The rewards

  • Address new business requirements

    by quickly building new solutions for emerging yet complex business challenges, needs, or use cases

  • Re-imagine existing processes

    or applications by modernising with a single source of truth for data

  • Sunset end-of-life legacy technologies

    (e.g., InfoPath, Lotus Notes, SharePoint workflows/ apps, Access, legacy CRM/ERP, WinAutomation)

  • Enable citizen developers

    to build productivity grade apps that meet less-complex needs, whilst managing platform governance top-down

The Steps to: Power Platform Adoption Framework

  • 1

    Assessment and Landing Zone: Getting Established

    We begin with a Power Platform Assessment to understand current state and create actionable next steps to build the platform. We’ll then test our initial landing zone by developing and deploying at least one high-priority solution identified in our envisioning.

    Application Transformation: Building Beautiful and Useful Things

    HSO’s development teams employ a proven framework for solution development focused on high-impact workloads and as part of a fusion developer, app factory approach to scaling solution development on Power Platform and across the Microsoft Cloud.

    Business Impact: Using our Roadmap to Drive Return on Investment

    A prioritised backlog of workloads are candidates for migration to the platform, allowing us to project Power Platform’s business value over time. Most enterprises will, in time, identify thousands of candidate workloads as they expand the platform’s reach to include more business groups. It’s therefore important to prioritise highest impact workloads.
