Power Platform Foundation
Secure and targeted use of the Power Platform with our workshop series
Success with the Power Platform Foundation Workshop Series
In our hands-on workshop series Power Platform Foundation, we collaboratively develop a tailored governance framework for your Power Platform. Our approach considers all essential aspects and ensures that your employees can use the Power Platform effectively and securely. Throughout this process, we keep your company's privacy policies and security measures in mind.
Together, we develop a comprehensive environment strategy that integrates security and data protection and sets up the Center of Excellence, which allows you to monitor and automate Microsoft's low-code/no-code platform. This will enable you to monitor the platform at all times and determine its lifecycle, responsibilities, and degree of utilization in detail.

The Path to Effective Use of the Power Platform
Without a clear governance strategy, redundant solutions and chaotic structures arise. The lack of control over data flows, access rights, and responsibilities poses security risks, while the absence of standardization leads to fluctuating quality and complicates maintenance. Unregulated platform use often results in unnecessary costs, diminishing the value of the Power Platform.
In our workshop series, we jointly develop an individual governance strategy that optimizes the use of the Power Platform, increases security, and ensures efficiency.
Key Findings of the Power Platform Foundation
Center of Excellence
The Center of Excellence (CoE) for the Microsoft Power Platform is a central organizational unit that promotes organic growth while providing the necessary governance and control. The CoE transcends geographic and organizational boundaries and allows you to focus more on overarching business goals rather than isolated departmental metrics.
We offer several extensions for the CoE Starter Kit. These include...
- ... a decentralized authorization model that enables the management of access rights for different areas of the company.
- ... the Power BI inventory, which captures and documents reports, datasets and workspaces.
- ... a connection manager that monitors and automatically analyzes connectivity in different environments.
- ... Inventory flows that enable the automatic collection of feedback from Power Platform users.
- ... a dedicated app for requesting developer access to simplify the management of development environments.
- ... central functions for deleting and restoring apps and flows.
- ... a comprehensive capacity and license management, which enables the cost allocation of Dataverse capacities according to cause.
