Challenge:
Alongside providing Border To Coast with Managed IT services, they approached us when with the need for a solution that helped focus internal processes to produce reports and collate data more efficiently.
Previously, reporting was collated from numerous data sources and management were sending multiple emails to team members. As a result Border To Coast felt it could benefit from a more tactical solution that ensured everyone used a single source when it came to reporting.
As an existing customer, Border To Coast took advantage of razorblue’s end-to-end service offering and Microsoft Power Apps expertise to help provide a solution that was future-proofed and ensured data continued to be secured and protected.
Due to the nature of the business and the regulations of the industry, cybersecurity is always the top priority throughout all projects with Border To Coast.
Solution:
With expertise in Microsoft Power Apps, we were able to discuss Border To Coast’s requirements and implement an innovative solution to improve its business processes and efficiencies.
As a result, we were able to streamline processes with key input from the team and stakeholders at Border To Coast, ensuring it was built around their business process requirements.
Our solution meant that a single Microsoft Form per data object and department could be created which could later be approved and then integrated into a central locked spreadsheet that everyone could pull data from.
With a single process for data collection in the right place, users were able to update, manage and improve data easily.
