"From Shop Floor to Office: Leverage M365 for Manufacturing Excellence"

From Shop Floor to Office: Leverage M365 for Manufacturing Excellence

This workshop is tailored specifically for manufacturers using Microsoft 365 (M365). The aim of the workshop is to explore how M365 tools can optimise your manufacturing processes, increase productivity, and enhance collaboration across your teams, including the use of Copilot.

From using Teams for seamless communication and Power BI for data-driven insights, to employing SharePoint for document management, intranet, and as a centralised database, the workshop leaders will cover the full range of capabilities. This will include diving into how PowerApps can bridge the gap between office and shop floor users. This information will be supported by real-life case studies describing the problem, the solution, and the quantifiable benefits.

Join us at the event to discover how M365 can solve your manufacturing challenges and elevate your business performance!
