Migrate and modernize…your way
Every organization is unique, and so are your challenges. Regardless of your current technology stack, we help can help transform the following areas of your business:
Power Platform for Manufacturing
Cloud transformation, modernization, management, and governance with Microsoft’s next-generation cloud application platform
Forward-thinking manufacturers are quickly and cost-effectively embracing Microsoft’s cloud application platform to modernize legacy applications. This makes them more competitive and responsive to increasing customer demands, while at the same time improving efficiencies in operations: supply chain, production, field service, personnel management, training, inventory management, and deployment.
We are experiencing a transition in the way organizations use, buy, and operate software. While in the past, the focus was on implementing point solutions to address specific business needs, today’s forward-looking organizations are taking a platform-first approach to deploying solutions—through integration with other business processes and data — in less time at a lower cost. With hundreds of API connectors, Microsoft’s cloud application platform, including Power Platform, Azure, and Modern Workplace, helps them modernize legacy technology, meet new business needs, reimagine existing applications, and enable citizen developers, regardless of their existing tech stack.
HSO’s approach to Power Platform adoption
HSO’s cloud application platform team includes proven, world-leading experts in adoption, enterprise management, governance, and scaled solution development of Microsoft’s Power Platform in large enterprise organizations. Applying Power Platform Adoption Framework best practices —authored by several experts on our team—we guide our clients on their journey. This Center of Excellence (CoE) as a Service approach begins with an assessment that leads to ongoing business value acceleration, enterprise management maturation, solution development, and application migration.
We begin with a Power Platform Assessment to understand current state and create actionable next steps to build the platform. We’ll then test our initial landing zone by developing and deploying at least one high-priority solution identified in our envisioning.
Five pillars and 22 component dimensions are continuously matured in the organization. The Enterprise Management Maturity Model helps us assess the maturity of enterprise management, and identify both organizational risk and opportunities to generate new business value.
The roadmap is a prioritized backlog of workloads that are candidates for migration to or new solution development on the platform. It allows the organization to project Power Platform’s business value over time. Most enterprises will in time identify thousands of candidate workloads as they expand the platform’s reach to include more business groups. It is therefore important to prioritize highest impact workloads.
HSO’s development teams employ a proven development framework focused on high-impact workloads and as part of a fusion developer, app factory approach to scaling solution development on Power Platform and across the Microsoft Cloud. With over 700 API connections to enterprise platforms like SAP, Oracle and JD Edwards, we can design and deploy a solution to fill a number of process gaps within your existing tech stack, regardless of your current ERP or CRM.
Migrate and modernize…your way
Every organization is unique, and so are your challenges. Regardless of your current technology stack, we help can help transform the following areas of your business:
Address new requirements by quickly building solutions for complex challenges and use cases (e.g. Supply Chain Management)
Re-imagine existing processes, ERP applications (e.g. SAP, Oracle, Infor, JD Edwards) or CRM systems (e.g. Salesforce, Sugar) with a single source of truth for data
Sunset end-of-life legacy technologies (e.g., InfoPath, Lotus Notes, SharePoint workflows/apps, Access, legacy CRM/ERP, WinAutomation)
Enable citizen developers building their own productivity grade apps to meet less-complex needs
