Low-Code/No-Code With the Microsoft Power Platform
The engine for the digitization of your organization
Automate Business Processes Independently with the Microsoft Power Platform
In companies, numerous individual processes take place every day in different departments, which employees often carry out manually. These are many individual, small processes such as sending monthly reminders for expense reports or regular report generation. With individual business applications and automations, you can make many of these business processes much more efficient.
With the Microsoft Power Platform, you tackle the digital transformation of your organization - at an individual level. The Power Platform turns your employees into "Citizen Developers" who can independently digitize their business processes and develop business apps - on a low-code/no-code basis even with little IT knowledge. At Arvato Systems, we focus on your goals and accompany you step by step on your path to digitization.
This Is Why the Microsoft Power Platform Is the Ultimate Choice
Realize savings potentials
The demand for smart, automated processes and individual business apps for digital transformation is high - and so are the needs and costs for developers. The Microsoft Power Platform remedies this by enabling skilled personnel to create standalone solutions for their specific use cases without lengthy needs analyses and consultations with the IT department. To ensure compliance with your corporate policies, we help you develop effective guardrails for the application of the Power Platform.
Relieve IT
Even for small to mid-sized organizations, updates and user requests represent a high workload in the IT department, not to mention the workload that large corporations face for maintaining and supporting their systems. With the Power Platform, you turn your employees into citizen developers and empower them to drive the digitization and advancements of the company through their applications and automations.
Motivate employees
The Microsoft Power Platform gives employees the freedom to translate their own ideas into an efficient solution quickly and easily. Your organization benefits not only from individual stand-alone solutions that contribute to digital transformation, but also from a high level of employee motivation that comes from being independent and making their own contribution to digitization.
All four Microsoft Power Platform services can access data in the Dataverse. This also applies to websites created with Power Pages. Data stored in the Dataverse can be analysed and visualized quickly and easily. This prevents delays in internal and external processes. Another advantage: you can define authorizations for individual accesses. This guarantees security.
Challenges When Using the Microsoft Power Platform
With the Microsoft 365 Suite, many companies already have the Power Platform and often without knowing it. Or without knowing how they can use the functionalities of the Power Platform more effectively. This is not surprising, because the possibilities and services of the Microsoft solution are wide-ranging. Therefore, there are two essential questions for the use of the Microsoft Power Platform:
- What are my deployment scenarios for the Power Platform?
- What is the governance strategy behind the use of the Power Platform?

Optimally combine SAP solution with the low-code tools of the Power Platform
Many companies rely on SAP, even for central tasks such as mapping business processes. In order to meet new requirements and drive innovation, you can extend your company's existing SAP environment with tools and thus continuously modernize it. The Microsoft Power Platform offers such tools.
The low-code environment enables your employees to create the apps they need themselves, automate recurring processes and evaluate data in dashboards and reports. At the same time, your company's security and compliance requirements are safeguarded by comprehensive governance. Bidirectional integration into the SAP environment allows processes to be more closely interlinked and data silos to be eliminated. These are important prerequisites for innovation, growth and success.
SAP and Power Platform: These Are Your Benefits
Improves access and integration of SAP data into workflows, especially for employees who cannot use SAP.
The Power Platform tools provide exactly the data that is relevant, in an app that employees use every day.
Enables the efficient entry of important data into the CRM via the Power Platform and the simple extraction of data from the SAP system.
Facilitates collaboration with external persons, as they do not need access to the subsystem, while data can be transferred correctly and securely.
With Arvato Systems, you have an experienced partner at your side who takes over the connection of the Power Platform to SAP - regardless of whether your SAP system is in the cloud or not.
