Power Platform or custom development: scope the decision

Start with workflows, access, connections and total cost.

Questions to examine

01

Describe journeys before tools

List users, tasks, documents and approvals. The Folio and Relay demos show examples of roles and corrections to define before choosing a platform.

02

Compare constraints

Identify systems to connect, hosting requirements and access needs. Define which data can leave a system and how failures will be handled.

03

Compare total cost

Compare retained licences, delivery, integrations, operation and maintenance. The optimisation simulator lets you change these assumptions and can also show a more expensive scenario.

04

Test a useful slice

A prototype helps verify a journey with teams. It does not by itself prove security, performance or production integrations: those checks still need to be planned.
