Modernizing operations doesn’t have to mean ripping and replacing legacy systems. For many organizations, the better path forward involves leveraging agile, scalable tools that bring new capabilities to existing environments.

Microsoft Power Platform—made up of Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI, and Dataverse—offers a flexible, low-code approach to improving operational efficiency, fostering innovation, and driving real-time decision-making across departments. 

By empowering teams to build their own apps, automate time-consuming processes, and surface data insights with minimal reliance on IT, Power Platform offers a direct route to smarter, faster operations. And with Charter Global as a strategic partner, organizations can scale these initiatives safely and effectively.

By partnering with Charter Global, businesses gain expert guidance to seamlessly adopt and optimize the Power Platform. Our team ensures secure deployments, tailored workflows, and measurable outcomes that accelerate innovation without disrupting daily operations.

Modernizing Operations

Rebalancing the Role of IT While Driving Innovation 

In a typical enterprise, central IT teams are tasked with keeping infrastructure running, securing data, enabling collaboration, and—on top of that—supporting custom solutions for every department. This overload often slows innovation. 

Power Platform provides a new way to distribute the development load, allowing business units to create their own solutions within a secure, governed framework. With Power Apps and Power Automate, business users can digitize routine tasks like approvals, scheduling, inventory management, or form submissions—all while maintaining data integrity and security. 

Charter Global works closely with IT leaders to ensure that these decentralized efforts stay aligned with enterprise standards. We help establish permission-based environments, build reusable components, and define development and testing protocols that keep projects on track. 

The result is faster delivery of solutions, reduced burden on IT, and empowered teams that can solve their own business problems with speed and confidence. 

Driving Smarter Decisions with Power BI 

It’s not enough to automate processes—organizations also need to understand how those processes are performing. Power BI makes it possible to connect data across systems and create unified dashboards that surface insights in real time. 

Power BI enables leaders to be proactive rather than reactive. And when combined with Power Apps and Power Automate, it creates a full-circle solution that connects action, data, and insight. 

Building a Culture of Innovation with a Center of Excellence 

As more departments adopt Power Platform, having the right structure in place becomes critical. Without standards and oversight, innovation can quickly turn into chaos—leading to inconsistent apps, redundant solutions, or even security risks. 

That’s why Charter Global helps clients establish Centers of Excellence (CoEs). A CoE serves as a blueprint for success, offering reusable templates, development guidelines, governance policies, and training resources. 

Through a well-designed CoE, organizations can: 

  • Enable citizen development while maintaining data integrity 
  • Create consistency in how apps and workflows are built 
  • Monitor platform usage and adoption 
  • Reduce duplicated efforts and shadow IT 

With a CoE in place, business units can move forward with confidence, knowing their efforts are aligned with the company’s larger digital goals. 

Why It Matters 

Microsoft Power Platform brings agility to the enterprise. It allows organizations to start small, experiment, and scale based on proven impact. But tools alone aren’t enough—it takes the right expertise to make sure adoption is strategic, secure, and sustainable. 

Charter Global provides end-to-end support, from use case identification and platform configuration to training, rollout, and long-term governance. Whether you’re digitizing a single workflow or reimagining how your departments operate, we help ensure Power Platform becomes a long-term driver of business value.
