The Problem
A company needed a cost-effective solution to manage and update information about their daily operations, including which services are available, who is on-site, and contact details for booking. The manual process of updating and communicating this information was inefficient and prone to delays.
Technology Used
- Power Automate
- SharePoint Lists
The Solution
Implementing a SharePoint List provided the client with a centralized and easily updatable view of their daily operations. This included details about whether the company is open, which services are available, who is on-site, and contact information for bookings. The client can also prefill future dates to streamline the process and reduce the need for daily updates.
Using Power Automate, we created a workflow that allows for real-time updates to the company’s WordPress website. This workflow ensures that any changes to the availability of services, on-site personnel, or contact details are quickly reflected and communicated to the visitors to the website. The solution leverages the client’s existing Microsoft 365 subscription, ensuring seamless integration and minimal additional costs.
Alternatives and Additional Options
- Integrate with Outlook to provide instant updates and communication
- Set up reminders for staff to update their availability and service status
