As technology continues to advance and offer new ways to leverage your data, it’s crucial that businesses take a centralised approach to data management to help create a workforce of agile decisionmakers that are ready to adapt to new opportunities and challenges.
We’ve already spoke about the power of real-time data and how it can help to identify bottlenecks and opportunities for efficiency or innovation within workflows. Following this, this blog will cover how AI-powered solutions, such as Microsoft Power Platform, can be used to turn these realisations into solutions that can improve overall business performance.
The power of AI and data automation
There is a real opportunity to leverage AI and automation for data analytics. Going beyond time saving benefits, the clever technology has the ability to dive deeper into the data, spot trends and even give context or reasoning behind the figures. Intelligent apps such as Power BI can help teams visualise and digest data, making it easier to spot areas for improvement.
With this data, teams across the organisation can use low-code AI and automation platforms to innovate new solutions or automations, turning insight into action.
How you can use Power Platform to unlock innovations
Power Platform is a solution made up of a range of low- or no-code apps that help companies unite their data and create solutions to react to the opportunities and challenges the insights present. From creating internal applications that can overcome productivity challenges to automating processes that will streamline workloads, the main perk of the platform is that its no-code usability means anyone across the business will be able to take action against their challenges.
Visualise your data with PowerBI
Powered by AI, PowerBI helps you generate appealing reports and leverages real-time insights to help improve the accuracy of decision making across your organisation. With this information, teams can react in a number of ways….
Build and launch apps to solve internal challenges
Using Power Apps, teams can use AI to quickly create a professional-grade app that will solve core challenges. From internal communication struggles to keeping field teams connected to the rest of the business, employees can ask AI or use the platform’s pre-built templates to build a solution that will respond to any conflicts within an organisation.
Automate workstreams to optimise processes
Found a bottleneck in a project? Approval processes and heavy administrative tasks like note sharing and delegation can often slow down teams cracking on with their individual actions. But, with Power Automate, you can set process triggers, notifications and automations to speed up common process challenges so everyone can jump straight into their assigned tasks.
Create data-driven website pages
Noticed a gap in your website? When SEO data or customer feedback identifies a need for a new web page or landing page, your teams can easily use the drag and drop features and AI capabilities in Power Pages to quickly build a website.
