Power Platform Development Services.Governed by Design.
300 canvas apps with no inventory, flows failing without anyone noticing, and citizen developers building solutions IT can't trace. Our Power Platform consulting services exist to prevent exactly that — Power Apps with real architecture, Power Automate with real error handling, Dataverse modelled as an actual database, and a Center of Excellence deployed before the sprawl starts.

Why Entalogics for Power Platform
What every Power Platform
consulting company
should govern first.
Low-code doesn't mean low-risk. The Power Platform estates we take over always have the same four problems — and fixing governance before building features is the difference between a productive platform and an ungoverned mess.
Governance01
Nobody deployed a Center of Excellence, so nobody knows what exists.
300 apps across the tenant. No inventory. No ownership. No usage data. We deploy the CoE Starter Kit first — app and flow inventory, maker analytics, DLP enforcement, and environment monitoring. Governance before the first new app gets built.
Architecture02
Dataverse got treated like a spreadsheet import, not a relational database.
Flat tables with 80 columns, no relationships, no option sets, no business rules. We model Dataverse properly — entity relationships, lookup fields, security roles, calculated columns. The data layer that Power Apps, Power BI, and Power Automate all depend on has to be right, or everything built on top of it inherits the mess.
Automation03
Power Automate flows had no error handling, so failures were invisible.
A flow that fails without notification is worse than no automation — the team assumes the process is running while data silently stops syncing. We wire try-catch scopes, failure branches, timeout handling, and ops channel notifications on every flow.
Type safety04
Everything was edited directly in production because nobody set up ALM.
Managed solutions, environment pipelines, dev-test-prod promotion. No editing in production. No unmanaged customizations blocking future deployments. Solution-aware development from the first component.
When Power Platform, when not
Power Platform is a tool.
Not a replacement for engineering.
Power Platform handles 80% of internal business automation faster than custom code. The other 20% needs pro-dev — and knowing exactly where that boundary sits is what keeps a low-code investment from becoming the next legacy problem.
BUILD ON POWER PLATFORM WHEN
- Internal business apps — approvals, request forms, dashboards — need to ship in days, not months
- Microsoft 365 is already the workplace and Dataverse, Teams, and SharePoint are in play
- Citizen developers need a governed path to build safely instead of Excel workarounds
- Process automation connects Dynamics 365, SharePoint, Outlook, and Teams natively
BUILD CUSTOM WHEN
- The app is customer-facing with brand-specific UI that canvas app controls can't deliver
- Business logic exceeds what Power Fx can express without becoming unreadable
- Data volumes or request rates push past Dataverse's built-in throttling limits
- The team is engineering-first and the use case justifies full-stack architecture
WE SAY NO WHEN
- "Power Apps for our consumer-facing product" — the platform isn't designed for external audiences at that level
- "Let everyone build whatever they want" — that's 300 ungoverned apps in six months
- "Replace our entire custom platform with Power Platform" — some problems need real code
What we build on Power Platform

Nine ways this work shows up for real clients. Each one governed, solution-aware, and built for enterprise production — not a demo environment somebody forgot to clean up.

The playbook
Power Platform development
patterns we ship on repeat.
Patterns from real enterprise Power Platform deployments — not demo tenant screenshots.
P01
CoE Starter Kit from day one
App inventory, flow inventory, maker analytics, DLP enforcement. Deployed before the first citizen developer builds anything.
P02
Solution-aware everything
Every app, flow, table, and component in a managed solution. Promoted through pipelines. Nothing unmanaged in production.
P03
Error handling on every flow
Try-catch scopes, configure-run-after for failure branches, timeout actions, notification to ops channel. No silent failures surviving past the first build.
P04
Dataverse with proper relational modelling
Entity relationships, lookup fields, option sets, business rules, calculated columns. No flat tables imported from Excel pretending to be a data model.
P05
DLP policies per environment
Business connectors separated from non-business. HTTP blocked in citizen environments. Premium connectors restricted to governed environments only.
P06
Power BI with row-level security
Embedded dashboards with RLS matching Dataverse security roles. Users see only their data. No separate permission model to maintain alongside Dataverse.
Signature case
A logistics company,
from 300 ungoverned apps to a governed Power Platform estate.
A logistics company with 300 canvas apps, 180 Power Automate flows, no DLP policies, no environment strategy, and 12 flows that had been silently failing for over a month — syncing nothing while operations assumed the data was current. Deployed CoE Starter Kit, configured DLP, consolidated into 3 governed environments, fixed failing flows, and established ALM pipelines in 8 weeks.
Before
300 apps, no inventory · 180 flows, 12 silently broken · 0 DLP policies · 1 default environment
After
186 governed apps · 94 monitored flows · DLP enforced · 3 environments with ALM pipelines

FAQ
Power Platform development —
questions we get on every call.
Custom vs low-code, sprawl prevention, model-driven vs canvas, migrations, cost — in roughly the order people ask.For most internal approvals, forms, dashboards, and data collection apps — yes, and significantly faster. For customer-facing products, complex UI, or high-scale data processing — custom code is still the right answer. We'll tell you which applies on the first call.
CoE Starter Kit for inventory and monitoring. DLP policies per environment. Managed Environments for enterprise controls. Environment strategy that separates citizen development from production. Governance deployed before the first app, not after the three hundredth.
Model-driven for data-heavy business apps where the UI builds itself from Dataverse — role-based security, business rules, and dashboards included. Canvas for custom layouts, mobile-first experiences, and pixel-level control. Most organizations need both for different use cases.
Yes. InfoPath forms rebuilt in Power Apps with Dataverse as the backend. Access databases migrated to Dataverse with proper relational modelling. Classic SharePoint workflows replaced with Power Automate. Each replacement tested and live before the legacy tool gets switched off.
Depends on scope — number of apps, flow complexity, Dataverse modelling needs, and governance maturity. The week-one audit gives real numbers. The quote is fixed from there. Most engagements run 6-12 weeks.
Yes. The architects who write the RFC ship the solutions. No handoff mid-engagement, no account manager in between.
