Microsoft Power Platform Development

Your Microsoft environment should help your team move faster, make better decisions and spend less time wrestling with disconnected systems.

Mantle Development designs, builds and improves practical business solutions across Dynamics 365, Business Central and Power Apps, connecting the tools your organisation already uses and shaping them around the way your people actually work.

We combine Microsoft platform expertise with a cooperative, holistic and proactive approach. That means we do more than deliver a list of features. We take the time to understand your processes, data, teams and wider technology landscape, then build a solution that works as part of the whole business.

No unnecessary complexity. No technology for the sake of it. Just well-structured, maintainable systems that solve real problems.

Off-the-shelf platforms are powerful, but they rarely fit every organisation perfectly from day one.

We help you configure, extend and connect your Microsoft environment so it supports your workflows rather than forcing your team to work around the software.

Our work can include:

✔ Improving an existing Dynamics 365 or Business Central environment

✔ Developing Canvas Apps for specific teams and processes

✔ Automating manual tasks and approval workflows

✔ Integrating Microsoft products with third-party systems

✔ Creating clearer, more reliable data flows

✔ Replacing spreadsheets, duplicate data entry and disconnected tools

✔ Diagnosing and resolving unreliable applications, flows and integrations

✔ Building new functionality around the systems you already rely on

The result is a connected Microsoft ecosystem that is easier to use, easier to manage and better prepared for growth.

Make your CRM fit the way you sell, serve and operate

Dynamics 365 can become the central point for customer information, sales activity, service delivery and operational data, but only when it has been designed around the people using it.

We develop and improve Dynamics 365 solutions that simplify everyday work, give teams greater visibility and reduce the need for manual administration.

We can support you with:

✔ Custom tables, fields, forms and business processes

✔ Sales, customer service and operational workflows

✔ Automated follow-ups, notifications and task creation

✔ Integrations with websites, finance systems and external platforms

✔ Data migration, cleansing and restructuring

✔ Role-based access and user experience improvements

✔ Reporting, dashboards and management information

✔ Ongoing optimisation and technical support

Connect finance and operations with the rest of your business

Business Central can provide a strong foundation for finance, purchasing, inventory and operational management. We help organisations extend that foundation and connect it with the systems surrounding it.

Our Business Central development services can include:

✔ Tailored workflows and business rules

✔ Integrations with CRM, ecommerce and operational platforms

✔ Automated order, invoice and customer processes

✔ Data synchronisation between Business Central and other systems

✔ Custom functionality for business-specific requirements

✔ Process improvements that reduce repetitive finance administration

✔ Reporting and data visibility improvements

✔ Maintenance, troubleshooting and optimisation

Our focus is not simply on moving data between systems. We make sure that information remains consistent, reliable and useful throughout the process.

Simple, focused apps for the people doing the work

Not every business process needs a large piece of software.

Sometimes the best solution is a focused app that gives a particular team exactly what they need, without exposing them to unnecessary systems or information.

We build Canvas Apps for mobile, tablet and desktop use, designed around real tasks and real working environments.

Examples include:

✔ Field service and inspection apps

✔ Survey and evidence-capture tools

✔ Stock and asset management

✔ Internal request and approval apps

✔ Job tracking and operational checklists

✔ Customer and supplier data collection

✔ Staff onboarding tools

✔ Scheduling and planning applications

✔ Forms that write directly into Dynamics 365, Business Central or Dataversen

We keep the experience clear and user-friendly while ensuring the app fits securely into your wider Microsoft environment.

Remove repetition and keep work moving

Manual handovers, duplicated data entry and missed follow-ups create delays that quickly compound across a business.

Using Power Automate, we design reliable workflows that connect people, data and systems.

This can include:

✔ Approval processes

✔ Document generation and filing

✔ Customer and supplier notifications

✔ Lead and task assignment

✔ Onboarding and offboarding workflows

✔ Order and invoice processing

✔ Data validation and synchronisation

✔ Scheduled reporting

✔ Integrations triggered by activity in Dynamics 365 or Business Central

Automation is not about replacing people. It is about removing low-value admin so your team can spend more time on judgement, service and growth.

Bring disconnected systems together

Your Microsoft environment should not operate as an island.

We build integrations between Microsoft products and third-party platforms, helping data move securely and consistently across your organisation.

Our integration work can involve:

✔ Dataverse architecture and data modelling

✔ Custom connectors

✔ REST APIs and web services

✔ JSON and XML data transformations

✔ Ecommerce, CRM, ERP and finance integrations

✔ Legacy and in-house systems

✔ Customer portals and websites

✔ Identity and access services

✔ Azure-based components where appropriate

We also investigate and resolve difficult integration issues, including inconsistent data, failed flows, duplicate records and unexpected system behaviour.

You do not always need to start again.

Many organisations already have valuable Microsoft systems in place, but those systems have grown over time, been configured inconsistently or become difficult to maintain.

We can help you:

✔ Review the current setup

✔ Understand how systems and data connect

✔ Identify bottlenecks, risks and duplication

✔ Repair unreliable flows and applications

✔ Iimplify overly complicated processes

✔ Refactor and improve existing solutions

✔ Document important functionality

✔ Create a practical roadmap for future development

We approach improvement pragmatically, retaining what works and changing what does not.

Cooperative by design

Your team understands the business. We understand how to turn that knowledge into effective technical solutions.

We work openly with your stakeholders, ask the right questions and explain decisions clearly. The aim is to build with you, not disappear into a technical black box and return with something that does not fit.

Holistic in our thinking

A change in one system can affect sales, finance, operations, reporting and customer service. We consider the complete picture: people, processes, data, systems, security and long-term plans. This helps us create solutions that work across the business rather than improving one area while creating problems somewhere else.

Proactive in our approach

We do not wait for every issue to be written into a brief. As we learn about your organisation, we identify risks, opportunities and improvements that may not have been obvious at the start. We think about maintainability, future integrations and growth from the beginning.

Pragmatic at heart

The best solution is not always the biggest or most technically impressive.

We deal with challenges sensibly, balancing business value, timescales, budget and technical quality. You receive a solution that is appropriate for the problem and realistic for your team to maintain.

Enjoyable to work with

We take delivery seriously, but we do not believe projects need to feel heavy or stressful.

We keep communication straightforward, collaborate closely and bring curiosity and personality to the work. Good partnerships produce better systems.

These principles reflect Mantle’s stated values of cooperation, holistic thinking, proactivity, pragmatism and enjoying the work.

Clear ownership

We take responsibility for the areas we deliver, working through technical challenges and following issues through to a practical resolution.

Maintainable development

We build structured solutions with future support and improvement in mind, rather than creating fragile fixes that become tomorrow’s problem.

Real-world problem solving

Our work often involves complex processes, inconsistent data, unusual edge cases and several systems that need to cooperate. That is where we add the most value.

Long-term support

Your Microsoft environment will continue to change as your organisation grows. We can remain involved through ongoing development, optimisation, troubleshooting and strategic guidance. The technical scope is informed by Mantle’s Microsoft Power Platform service, including Power Apps, Power Automate, Dataverse, Dynamics 365, APIs, data transformation, integration work and structured problem solving.

Microsoft Environment Development may be a good fit when:

✔ Your team is re-entering the same information into several systems

✔ Dynamics 365 or Business Central does not reflect your real processes

✔ Spreadsheets have become business-critical

✔ Existing Power Apps or flows are unreliable

✔ Existing Power Apps or flows are unreliable

✔ Finance, sales and operational data do not align

✔ People are relying on manual handovers and reminders

✔ Your Microsoft systems need to connect with external platforms

✔ You need a focused internal app without commissioning a large software platform

✔ You want to improve an existing environment without rebuilding everything

Whether you need a new Canvas App, a more effective Dynamics 365 setup, a Business Central integration or a complete review of your Microsoft environment, Mantle Development can help.

We will work with your team to understand what is slowing you down, identify the most valuable improvements and build a practical solution that connects your people, processes and data.

Let’s make your Microsoft environment work better, together.

The structure and tone above follow the broader website direction: practical, business-focused, collaborative and centred on reducing friction, connecting systems and improving the way organisations operate.
