The Microsoft Power Platform Brings Agency Missions to Life

In the realm of modern governance, the ability to innovate and streamline processes is crucial for delivering effective public services. The Microsoft Power Platform has become a critical element to help government agencies achieve their missions more efficiently and effectively.

In our ongoing blog series, we have been highlighting how Makpar helped a government customer migrate to a M365 cloud-hosted environment. This included the ability to leverage SharePoint in ways that enhanced collaboration for more than 102,000 users, as well as compliance and access control.

In this installment of this three-part series, we showcase Makpar’s approach to helping government customers best use the Microsoft Power Platform, a collection of low-code development tools that allows users to build custom business applications, automate workflows, and analyze data.
