Overview
When a spreadsheet has outgrown its job but off-the-shelf software does not fit, Power Apps lets us build exactly the application you need, on a governed Microsoft platform connected to Dynamics, Microsoft 365, and your other systems.
We design, build, and deploy line-of-business apps, intake forms, approvals, inspections, trackers, that run on web and mobile and stay maintainable as you grow.
How We Work
Scope
We find the spreadsheet or paper process that deserves to be an app and define the smallest version that helps.
Build
We build on Power Apps and Dataverse with proper security roles, then test it with the people who will live in it.
Iterate
We ship, gather feedback, and extend the app as the team adopts it, without big-bang rewrites.
What's Included
App design and build
Custom apps shaped to your process, built quickly on Power Platform.
Data integration
Connected to Dataverse, Dynamics, Microsoft 365, and your existing systems.
Mobile and field use
Apps that work on phones and tablets for staff in the field.
Forms and approvals
Intake, approval, and tracking flows that replace paper and spreadsheets.
Governance
Built on a governed platform so apps stay secure and maintainable.
Handoff and support
Documentation and support so the app keeps serving you as you grow.
Implementation Options
Three ways to start, depending on how much certainty you want before you commit. Estimates and rates are quoted in your proposal.
T&M Implementation
- The full implementation on time and materials, billed to actual hours as consumed
- A written estimate up front, revisited at every phase gate
- Design and build run in parallel: the blueprint evolves while early phases are already being delivered
- Scope stays flexible, with changes approved through a written change order
- Simpler footprints with a clear picture of their requirements
- Teams comfortable steering scope as the work unfolds
Fixed-Fee Discovery & Design
- The first phase of a full implementation, run as a standalone engagement with its own deliverables (we call it Phase 0)
- Current state documented, future state designed, and the implementation blueprint delivered
- A fixed-fee implementation proposal, priced against confirmed scope
- Deliverables are platform-agnostic, not tied to Microsoft or to us, and detailed enough for any qualified partner to quote a fixed fee
- The fee is credited in full toward the implementation if you proceed with us within three months
- Complex or unclear scope, where guessing is expensive
- Boards and leadership teams that prefer the certainty of a detailed roadmap and fixed-fee scope before implementation kicks off
Fixed-Fee Implementation
- Follows a completed Discovery & Design engagement
- The implementation at a fixed price, quoted against the scope confirmed in discovery and design
- Milestone billing tied to deliverables you can verify
- Change orders only when the scope itself changes
- Budget certainty required before kickoff
- Regulated or board-governed purchases
Support & Training Options
Automation only pays for itself while it keeps running. Decide who watches it. Flat-fee plans run on a rolling 90-day commitment; T&M carries none.
T&M support
- Fixes and changes billed hourly, as requested
- Escalation to the team that built your apps
- New automation ideas scoped in writing before work starts
- Teams with a maker or admin who owns the day to day
- A small number of stable, low-risk automations
Flat-fee automation support
- Reduced professional services rates for your implementation
- SLA-backed support during business hours
- Monitoring so failed runs get caught by us, and never by your customers
- Minor app changes as the business changes
- Training for new staff who inherit the tools
- Automations sitting in revenue-critical or compliance-critical paths
- Teams that want to keep building without keeping a developer
Fully managed automation & IT
Everything in the flat-fee automation support option, plus managed IT services:
- Our lowest professional services rates for your implementation, as part of a holistic ongoing engagement
- Microsoft 365 administration
- Endpoint monitoring, patching, and security configuration
- Security monitoring, threat response, and email security
- IT vendor and license management
- vCIO strategic advisory
- Helpdesk and level 1, 2, and 3 support for staff
- SLA on system-blocking issues
- Companies that want one partner across automation and general IT
Who This Is For, and Who It Is Not
A strong fit if
- A spreadsheet has become a system of record, and several people edit it at once.
- Staff in the field fill in paper forms that someone re-types afterward.
- You need inspections, intake, approvals, or asset tracking, and every product you have looked at covers half of it.
- The data already lives in Business Central, Dataverse, or Microsoft 365.
- You want it on phones and tablets, offline included, without commissioning a separate mobile build.
A poor fit if
- You need a customer-facing product to sell. Power Apps licensing is built for internal users.
- The need is a form and a notification. A SharePoint list and a flow are enough.
- You need heavy computation, complex logic, or thousands of concurrent users. That belongs in custom development on Azure.
Frequently Asked Questions
All questionsWhat is Power Apps?
Power Apps is Microsoft's low-code app platform. It turns the tracking spreadsheet everyone fights over, or the paper form somebody re-types, into a real app with structure, permissions, and an audit trail, built in weeks instead of quarters.
How much does Power Apps cost?
Your Microsoft 365 licenses already include limited Power Apps use, enough for simple apps built on standard connectors. The moment an app uses Dataverse or a premium connector, which most real internal apps do, it needs a Power Apps license: a per-user subscription for people who use apps regularly, or pay-as-you-go billed through an Azure subscription for seasonal and occasional use. Dataverse storage beyond what your licenses include is a capacity add-on. Microsoft publishes current rates on the Power Apps pricing page.
How is this different from custom development, or staying in Excel?
Traditional custom development is a much larger investment and a long-term maintenance commitment. The spreadsheet costs nothing until it silently breaks. Power Apps sits between: real software, built fast on the platform you already license, connected to the data you already have.
What should we build with Power Apps, and what should we not?
Build the internal process everyone works around: equipment checkouts, inspections, approvals, intake forms, job tracking. If the words 'the spreadsheet' come with an eye-roll, it is a candidate. Customer-facing products with heavy design needs, or complex custom logic at large scale, deserve traditional development; Power Apps is for internal operations, and it is excellent at exactly that.
What does an implementation cost, and when do we find out?
Early, on purpose. After discovery we put a ballpark scope and budget in front of you, with no signature expected, so both sides know the shape of the project early. After design, pricing becomes a fixed scope. We present two structures side by side, a straight hourly project and the same scope amortized monthly with support included, so you can show leadership the difference and defend the choice.
What happens after go-live?
Thirty days of hypercare are built into every implementation, then you move to the support option you chose. Expect a response within a couple of hours, usually a live screen share, and sessions that double as training. Heavy investment in training and cutover means post-go-live questions skew toward how-do-I rather than break-fix.
How do you handle training?
Role-based and timed close to go-live so it sticks: finance, operations, and quality each learn their own workflows, in your system with your data. After go-live, support sessions run as live screen shares that double as training, and flat-fee plans include training for new hires and on each Microsoft release wave.
Do you mark up Microsoft licensing?
No. Licensing passes through at Microsoft's list price. As your partner of record we handle procurement, true-ups, and renewals, and we flag the licenses you are paying for but not using. Our fees are for our work; licensing is not a profit line.
