At Flyte, we believe in a simple truth: technology should empower people, not hinder them. For the UK’s forward-thinking engineering firms, the path to greater efficiency and innovation is no longer a complex coding challenge. It’s a creative process powered by the Microsoft Power Platform. Our experienced development team work with Engineering firms to design and implement these effective solutions, transforming business challenges into opportunities for growth.
Microsoft Power Platform – a modern workplace framework
The Power Platform is not just a set of tools; it’s a modern workplace framework for unlocking the potential within your organisation:
- PowerApps: Build Smarter, Faster. We help you move beyond generic, off-the-shelf software. PowerApps allows us to rapidly build bespoke applications tailored to your exact needs. Whether it’s a mobile app for on-site quality checks or a system to manage supplier relationships, we help you create intuitive solutions that digitise processes and ensure data integrity from the moment it’s captured.
- Power Automate: Streamline Every Process. Time is a valuable resource. With Power Automate, we identify and automate the tedious, repetitive tasks that drain your team’s energy. From automating invoice approvals to streamlining project sign-offs, our solutions free up your most skilled people to focus on the high-value work that truly drives your business forward.
- Power BI: Actionable Insights at a Glance. You have a mountain of data; we help you turn it into a powerful asset. Power BI allows us to consolidate data from various sources and create interactive dashboards that provide real-time insights. Imagine a single dashboard where you can track project profitability, monitor resource utilisation, and predict key outcomes—all in one place. That’s the power of effective data visualisation.
Why UK Engineering Firms Trust the Power Platform
The move towards low-code innovation is gaining significant momentum in the UK engineering sector. Major firms like WGM Engineering (Case Study), Balfour Beatty (source) and AECOM (source) are already leading the charge, proving the platform’s ability to deliver tangible results. This is part of a broader trend; a Microsoft report highlights the potential for a £78 billion boost to the UK economy from SME AI adoption (source).
Here’s why we believe the Power Platform is the right choice for your business:
- Accelerated Innovation: Forget lengthy, expensive development cycles. The platform’s low-code nature means we can design and deploy solutions in weeks, not months. A Forrester study on low-code development found projects can be completed up to 20 times faster than with traditional methods (source).
- Increased Productivity & Efficiency: Our solutions don’t just automate tasks; they optimise workflows. This strategic efficiency allows your team to achieve more with less, improving overall productivity and ultimately boosting your bottom line.
- Seamless Integration: We build solutions that integrate flawlessly with your existing Microsoft ecosystem, including Teams and SharePoint. This eliminates data silos, promotes better collaboration, and creates a single, unified source of truth for your entire team.
- Cost-Effective Solutions: By leveraging your existing Microsoft licences and reducing the need for traditional, custom-built software, the Power Platform offers a highly cost-effective route to digital transformation.
The Microsoft Power Platform is a strategic asset for any UK engineering firm aiming to thrive in today’s competitive landscape. It’s about more than just technology; it’s about empowering your people and optimising your operations for the future.
