Microsoft Power Apps consultantDecide whether to build a new Power App or rescue the one you already have.
Solvanto helps UK organisations turn spreadsheet-heavy processes and fragile Power Apps into practical, supportable internal tools. Start with a defined assessment, clear outputs, and a decision you can act on.
Teams with an operational problem that now costs too much to work around.
Operations, service, finance, HR, and support teams replacing manual processes
IT owners inheriting a Power App that is hard to support or change
Organisations that need a proportionate answer before committing to a build
Teams that value clear ownership, documentation, governance, and handover
A practical starting point when the process matters, but the right solution is not yet clear.
This service is for teams that need better data capture, task management, approvals, or operational visibility and want to know whether a Power App is the right answer before investing.
It is also for IT and service owners who have inherited an app that users depend on but which has become slow, fragile, difficult to change, or unclear to support.
The first step is deliberately bounded: understand the process or inspect the existing app, expose the risks and trade-offs, then decide whether to build, rescue, simplify, or stop.
Expensive symptoms Solvanto helps fix
People rekey the same information between spreadsheets, email, SharePoint, and other systems
Approvals and service requests stall because ownership and current status are unclear
Errors or incomplete records are found only after they affect customers, reporting, or compliance
Managers spend time assembling updates because the process has no reliable operational view
Small changes to an existing app feel risky because dependencies, ownership, and documentation are unclear
Users work around a slow or confusing app, creating more offline trackers and inconsistent data
Existing Power App or a process that needs a new one?
Start with the route that matches your situation. Each gives you a clear, practical basis for deciding what to do next.
Improve or rescue an existing Power App
Review an app that is slow, fragile, difficult to change, unclear to support, or no longer serving its users well.
Assess a process for a new Power App
Test whether Power Apps is the right fit before committing to a build, and shape a proportionate delivery plan around the real process.
Power Apps Health Check & Rescue Plan
A fixed-scope review for organisations with an existing Power App that is slow, difficult to change, unclear to support, or carrying hidden operational risk.
One Power App, up to 10 directly associated cloud flows, its core data model, and up to three relevant environments.
Findings delivered within 10 working days of confirmed access and kick-off.
A written findings report, prioritised remediation plan, and 60-minute playback session.
A fixed fee is confirmed once scope, access, and dependencies are validated. Any rescue or build work is quoted separately.
App and user experience
Review usability, screen structure, performance, accessibility, and how well the app supports real user journeys.
Flows, data, and environments
Assess associated cloud flows, the core data model, connections, dependencies, and the relevant Power Platform environments.
Permissions and supportability
Identify permissions, licensing, ownership, deployment, documentation, and ongoing support risks.
Prioritised rescue plan
Receive clear findings, practical remediation priorities, and a 60-minute playback to agree the safest next steps.
Clear exclusions
The pilot does not include remediation work, new features, licence procurement, a tenant-wide governance review, penetration testing, or changes to third-party systems.
Fixed fee confirmed after validation; no remediation commitment is required.
Inspect the delivery thinking before you decide
The practical proof library includes a working Power Apps interface, spreadsheet redesign, integration walkthrough, and automation decision tree. It uses synthetic data and makes no claim of measured client results.
Everything needed to design, build, improve, and support useful Power Apps.
The aim is not just to produce an app interface. It is to create a better operational experience with cleaner structure behind it.
Power Apps development often touches more than one part of the Microsoft ecosystem. An app may need to use SharePoint or Dataverse for data storage, Power Automate for workflow, permissions for controlled access, Teams for collaboration, and Power BI or reporting outputs for visibility. Solvanto helps shape the right pattern so the app does not become overcomplicated, but still has the structure needed to last.
This is especially useful when a process has outgrown Excel or a basic list. If people are manually updating trackers, chasing approvals, copying information between systems, or struggling to see the latest status, a well-designed Power App can bring the workflow into one place and make the process easier to manage.
Canvas and model-driven apps
Design and build Power Apps that suit the process properly, whether that means a guided task-based app or a more structured data-led experience.
Data capture and process control
Replace inconsistent email chains, spreadsheets, and duplicate entry with structured app-based workflows and cleaner business data.
Integration with Microsoft 365 and wider systems
Connect Power Apps with SharePoint, Teams, Outlook, SQL, APIs, Azure services, and other platforms where the process needs to go beyond a standalone app.
Governance and supportability
Build with sensible permissions, ownership, documentation, and support in mind so the solution remains maintainable after launch.
Improvement of existing Power Apps
Review and improve current apps that have become hard to manage, slow to change, or unclear for users and support teams.
Reporting-ready app design
Create better operational data flows so the app not only works day to day, but also supports reporting, monitoring, and decision-making.
A clear route from process problem to usable Power App.
Strong Power Apps delivery depends on understanding the work itself, not just the platform. The process, users, data, and ownership model all matter.
Solvanto starts by looking at the existing workflow and the people involved. That means understanding what users need to do, where information comes from, what needs approval, what should be automated, and what reporting or audit trail is required afterwards. This helps prevent the app from becoming a digital copy of a poor process.
Once the process is clear, the app design can be shaped around real user journeys. That might mean a simple canvas app for mobile-friendly data capture, a model-driven app for structured case management, or a hybrid approach that connects with Power Automate, SharePoint, Dataverse, SQL, or other business systems.
Understand the working process
Map the users, tasks, decisions, pain points, exceptions, and data involved before jumping into screens or controls.
Shape the right app design
Choose the right Power Apps pattern, data model, and integration approach based on how the process actually works in practice.
Build around real user journeys
Focus on usability, speed, data quality, and operational clarity rather than creating an app that only looks good in demos.
Handover with structure
Leave clear ownership, documentation, permissions, and support notes so the app is easier to manage after go-live.
Good Power Apps need more than screens and buttons.
Without sensible design, Power Apps can become hard to use, difficult to support, and awkward to extend. Solvanto helps you avoid that by building with practicality in mind from the start.
Usability matters because internal apps only work when people actually use them. Security matters because app data can include sensitive business information. Supportability matters because business processes change, teams grow, and the app will need to evolve. A Power App should be designed with all of that in mind, not treated as a quick form that no one owns properly.
Solvanto’s approach is to keep the solution as simple as the process allows, while still building the foundations needed for reliability. That means clear data structure, sensible naming, permission thinking, useful notes for support, and an app design that avoids unnecessary clicks or confusing screens.
Usable for real teams
Apps should feel simple and practical for the people using them, not overly technical or full of unnecessary clicks.
Controlled and secure
Permissions, ownership, environment choices, and sensitive data handling need to be thought through properly from the start.
Designed to evolve
A good Power App should be easy to improve, extend, and support as the process matures over time.
Typical outcomes
A good Power App should improve the process around it, not simply digitise a bad workflow as-is. The best results come when the app makes work clearer for users and creates better information for the business.
That could mean reducing manual chasing, improving status visibility, capturing cleaner data, making exceptions easier to manage, or giving managers a better view of workload and performance.
Good fit for organisations that need practical app delivery.
This page is aimed at teams that know they need a better internal tool, but want it shaped properly around the process, the users, and the longer-term support model.
It is also useful when an existing Power App has grown messy, slow, or difficult to maintain. Reviewing the data model, screens, workflows, permissions, and ownership can often turn a fragile app into something much more practical.
You want to replace a spreadsheet-heavy or workaround-led process
You need better internal data capture and status visibility
You want a Power App that is practical for real users, not just technically possible
You need delivery that considers governance and maintainability from the start
Need something broader or more specific?
