Apps, automations and dashboards that free your team from spreadsheets and approval emails. In English or Portuguese.

Why automate your processes

Spreadsheets only one person understands. Approvals lost in someone’s inbox. Reports rebuilt by hand every Monday. There’s a better way, and the tools are often already included in your company’s Microsoft 365.

The same purchase request, two ways.

An example that happens in almost every company. Flip the switch and see the difference.

Manual

  1. Someone fills in a spreadsheet and saves it in some folder.

  2. The request goes by email to a manager for approval.

  3. The email gets buried and someone has to chase it in person.

  4. Finance types everything again into the system.

  5. At month end, the report is put together by hand.

The result: waiting, rework and nobody knows where the request stands.

Automated

  1. Power AppsThe request is made in an app, on a phone or a computer.

  2. Power AutomateThe approval shows up in Teams and is done with one click.

  3. DataverseData lives in one place, with no double entry.

  4. Power BIThe dashboard updates itself for whoever needs to decide.

The result: every step on record and a status everyone can see.

What I do

Six areas with a single goal: take repetitive work off your team and put reliable information in the hands of decision makers.

Custom business apps

Power Apps

Apps your team uses to record, approve and look up information on a phone or computer, instead of scattered spreadsheets.

  • Field checklists and inspections
  • Asset and inventory tracking
  • Internal request portals

Process automation

Power Automate

Workflows that move data, trigger approvals and notify the right people without anyone having to remember. With AI where it truly helps.

  • Approvals in Teams and Outlook
  • Document and form processing
  • Integrations with SharePoint and other systems

Dashboards and reports

Power BI

Metrics that refresh automatically, in a dashboard any manager can read in a few seconds.

  • Management dashboards
  • Board reporting
  • Goal and operations tracking

Platform administration

Governance

Licenses, environments and security rules organized so the company can grow with control, without blocking the people who build.

  • Environment strategy and DLP
  • License management
  • Center of Excellence (CoE)

Agile in practice

Scrum Master

Facilitating teams and projects with Scrum, to deliver value in short cycles with priorities everyone understands.

  • Well-run team events
  • Backlog and prioritization
  • Rolling out agile practices

Enablement and mentoring

Training

Training in English or Portuguese so your team can build and maintain its own solutions safely and independently.

  • Citizen developer programs
  • Internal Power Platform communities
  • Tailored workshops and tutorials

From the first chat to a team that runs on its own.

A simple method, with deliveries you can follow closely from start to finish.

  1. Understand

    We talk through the process, the people involved and what hurts the most today. You get a clear map of what is worth automating first.

  2. Prototype

    You see a first working version early and refine it with the people who will actually use it.

  3. Deliver in sprints

    The solution grows in short cycles, with agreed priorities and deliveries you can follow.

  4. Train and hand over

    Documentation, team training and governance in place, so the solution keeps living after the project ends.

Frequently asked questions

What is Microsoft Power Platform?

It is Microsoft’s set of tools for building apps (Power Apps), automating processes (Power Automate) and analyzing data (Power BI) with little or no code. It connects to Microsoft 365, Teams, SharePoint and hundreds of other systems.

Does my company need to buy new licenses?

Not always. Many Microsoft 365 plans already include Power Apps and Power Automate capabilities. At the start of a project I check what you already have and only recommend extra licenses when they make sense.

Do you work with companies anywhere?

Yes. I work remotely from Sorocaba, Brazil, with companies in Brazil and abroad, in English or Portuguese.

How long does a project take?

It depends on the size of the process. Because I work in short cycles, you see something working from the first deliveries, and the scope is agreed before we start.

Do I need an IT team?

No. I handle the technical side and explain everything in plain language. If your company has IT, I work alongside them to follow your security rules.

Can you train my team?

Yes. I offer training and mentoring in English or Portuguese, from the basics to citizen developer programs where people build their own solutions.

What about data security?

Solutions stay inside your company’s Microsoft environment, with access policies and data loss prevention (DLP) configured. Governance is part of the project from day one.

How do we get started?

Message me on WhatsApp or by email with a few lines about the process you want to improve. From there we schedule a call to understand your situation.

Which process do you want to fix first?

Tell me in a few lines how it works today. I reply personally, in English or Portuguese.
