Challenges of the customer

The tendering app previously used by a third-party provider was no longer available. For our customer, this meant the opportunity to build their own solution: fully integrated into Microsoft 365, with automated workflows and strict authorizations. At the same time, legal requirements had to be met and sensitive data had to be protected. The aim was to create a platform that digitizes and securely processes contract awards and can be further developed independently by the specialist departments.

Our approach

Process recording & workshop

In a two-hour workshop, the previous procedures were documented and written out as a process. Requirements such as two-round awards, automatic notifications and archiving were jointly prioritized.

Technical design

A SharePoint list model was designed that maps bidders, companies and tenders in a structured manner. At the same time, an authorization concept was developed to ensure that bids are only visible after the deadline has expired.

Automation with Power Automate

Power Automate Flows automatically create bidder folders, send e-mails and control deadlines. Special cases such as deadline extensions or subsequent bidder additions have also been taken into account.

Input masks with Power Apps

Employees use intuitive forms to enter tenders, store contacts and select document templates. All entries are saved directly in SharePoint.

Test & handover

After a successful test phase, the system was handed over to our customer's internal IT team. The employees were trained for the new solution so that extensions and adjustments can be made internally in future.
