      The Microsoft Power Platform is a low-code/no-code platform for supplementing traditional applications in an organisation with quickly implementable and scalable solutions. This enables end-to-end automation and digitalisation of business and support processes.

      The most important modules/functional components of the Power Platform are Power BI, Power Apps, Power Automate, Power Pages, Dataverse and Copilot Studio. These tools can be connected to third-party systems and existing IT landscapes through integration options via numerous connectors.

      The components of the Microsoft Power Platform

      The focus is on the development of low-code applications that can be implemented quickly, enabling companies to create their digital solutions efficiently and without extensive programming knowledge. At the same time, the creation of digitalised, automated and compliant business processes is promoted in order to increase efficiency and ensure compliance with regulations.

      • Power Apps - user/process-orientated front ends

        Power Apps offers a way to create user interfaces that can be customised to meet specific requirements. The low-code approach speeds up development, reduces costs and increases flexibility.

      • Power Pages - Customised, secure internal and external websites

        Power Pages enables the creation of websites that are geared towards professional design, data security and data integration. The websites can be accessed by internal and external users.

      • Power Automate - Trigger-based automation of repetitive business processes

        Power Automate is a backend technology for automating recurring tasks and workflows. Information is processed on the basis of defined triggers and context-related conditions.

      • Dataverse - Centralised, scalable and secure data platform

        Microsoft Dataverse is a scalable data platform that centralises business data and enables integration with the Microsoft Power Platform and other applications. Dataverse offers structured data management with integrated security and governance.

      • CoPilot Studio - utilisation of AI functions and integration into workflows

        Copilot Studio can be used to create AI-supported assistants and automation solutions that support various processes such as data processing, decision-making and customer interaction and accelerate process automation.

      • Power BI - Data visualisation in dashboards

        Power BI visualises data sets from different sources, allowing users to analyse the data. The raw information is used for reporting with the help of data modelling.

      Five arguments in favour of using the Power Platform in the financial sector

      • Data-driven decisions in real time

        Power BI enables financial companies to visualise huge data sets from different sources in an easy-to-understand way and gain decision-relevant insights - for more precise risk assessments, regulatory-driven evaluations and strategic market reactions.

      • Increased efficiency and automation of financial processes

        Power Automate automates manual, error-prone and repetitive processes such as approval workflows, thereby reducing manual effort. This leads to a reduction in costs while at the same time increasing processing speed

      • Customised business solutions with a focus on low-code implementations

        Power Apps allows specialist departments to create customised applications for specific business process requirements - from simple information capture/consolidation to specific compliance tools and risk management solutions, for example.

      • Artificial intelligence for smart processes

        Copilot Studio enables financial service employees to develop their own agents (copilots) on a low-code basis. This addresses pain points in the processes directly from the specialist departments and makes the processes more intelligent and automated. Copilot Studio also enables companies to develop chatbots that answer questions about the company's processes and requirements.  

      • Fulfil regulatory industry-specific requirements

        The Power Platform optimises compliance and Risk management through automated checks, real-time monitoring and intelligent reports, such as our implementation solution for the DORA information register.

      Use case: DORA information register with the Microsoft Power Platform

      When the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) comes into force, financial institutions will have to keep a detailed register of information and report it to the supervisory authorities. The biggest challenge is to consolidate all relevant data from different systems, avoid error messages through strict validation rules and complete the reporting process on time.

      The KPMG app for the DORA information register provides you with a customised, digital solution that

      • Seamlessly imports and integrates data from existing systems such as SAP or ServiceNow,
      • automatically checks data quality and consistency to avoid incorrect reports,
      • provides a structured information register that can be updated at any time,
      • automatically generates the required reporting format at the touch of a button and facilitates uploading to the relevant portals (CASPER, MVP).

      Benefit from a tried-and-tested solution that combines compliance with efficient automation - for reliable, convenient and sustainable DORA implementation.

      Many financial institutions are still struggling with Excel spreadsheets and media disruptions. A low-code solution can help.
