Operational Impact
The adoption of Power Platform has had a significant impact on Accenture's operations. The company has been able to fill gaps in unmet development demand and automate manual efforts, resulting in $6 million of value gained every year in avoided cost. The CoE team connects with makers using Power Platform on a regular basis to learn how their use of low-code apps, automations, and bots built in Power Platform have saved time and money while increasing productivity. The team has designed a productivity value index that captures ROI metrics. Furthermore, the company has been able to embed Power Platform into its standard offerings and meet people where they already work every day. The company has also hosted large events like the Power to Everyone Hackathon and a global Adoption campaign to encourage adoption of the platform. | |
