Copilot

Everyone is excited by AI and the opportunities to increase productivity and work enjoyment. Microsoft Copilot integrates with the Microsoft 365 suite assisting activities, such as summarizing action items from an important Teams meeting, helping you conduct on-the-spot analysis of data in Word or Excel, or instantly crafting high quality content in Outlook in a chosen voice.

Blacktip helps you navigate Microsoft Copilot.

Using Microsoft Copilot safely within your environment depends on your SharePoint tenant architecture, use of information protection features, and user training. Blacktip helps you navigate these waters with the latest in Microsoft recommendations and standards.

By supporting you with recommendations and best practices, we’ll help you use Microsoft Copilot safely and in compliance with your organization’s data policies based on your SharePoint architecture. That means, you can effectively integrate your M365 environment into your day to efficiently do your work.

SharePoint and OneDrive Structure Service

SharePoint is more than an intranet – SharePoint document libraries give you the power of magnified search, filtering, tagging, and information protection. A SharePoint document library is a place where you can store, manage, and share files with your team. A fine-tuned document library applies a flattened structure, where you use document sets, metadata, and views to filter and sort your files without folders.

Blacktip sets you up to work quickly and efficiently.

We’ll help you achieve a flattened document library structure instead of a hierarchical structure, which means you will:

  • Reduce the complexity and depth of your document library, making it easier to navigate and find the files you need.
  • Eliminate the duplication and inconsistency of files that may occur when you store them in multiple folders.
  • Enable the use of metadata and views to filter and sort your files by different criteria, such as document type, author, date, status, etc.
  • Enhance the searchability and discoverability of your files as metadata and views are indexed by SharePoint search engine.
  • Facilitate the collaboration and co-authoring of files as you can share and edit files with your team members without worrying about folder permissions or version conflicts.
  • Improve the governance and compliance of your document library as you can apply retention policies, workflows, and audit logs to your files based on metadata and views.

Microsoft 365 and SharePoint Migration Services

Whatever the case, the complexity of migrating to Microsoft 365 and SharePoint can vary depending on the size and complexity of your organization, the amount of data being migrated, and the level of customization required. That’s why proper planning, execution, and support are key for a seamless transition.

Blacktip helps make the migration process smooth and less complicated.

We’ll help you through the migration process from beginning to end:

  • Assessment: Evaluate the current IT environment, including network equipment, hardware, software, data, and user needs.

Teams Collaboration and Communication

Collaboration and communication are the lifeblood of modern work. Collaboration is seamless with Microsoft Teams + Copilot, Teams Meetings, Teams Phone, and Teams Rooms.

Blacktip helps you optimize Teams.

Microsoft Teams integrates with a wide range of other tools to enhance its functionality and improve collaboration and productivity. We will help you:

  • Architect a foundation that will grow with your business. Understanding the premise behind SharePoint and Teams empowers you to design a tenant that will satisfy your goals and get the most from the tools today and into the future.
  • Train users on tools that open possibilities. A well-trained team on M365 brings your data alive so your business can continue to thrive.
  • Secure files and data. Users are free to innovate and foster creativity while confident data is secure and compliant.

Workflow Automation Services

Low code doesn’t mean no code – you want some help. You are already using Microsoft 365 and you know there must be a way to automate everyday workflow. Blacktip will help you identify workflow bottlenecks and opportunities for automation using Microsoft Power Apps and Power Automate.

Blacktip empowers you to automate everyday redundant tasks.

By freeing you from repetitive tasks, we’ll help you accomplish more. We’ll leverage the Microsoft Power Platform and its four main components: Power BI, Power Apps, Power Automate, and Power Virtual Agents. These tools work together to enable businesses to analyze data, build custom applications, automate workflows, and create virtual chatbots to improve productivity and efficiency. We’ll optimize your processes to use these tools and features, which overall help with:

  • Automating repetitive tasks: For example, you can create a flow that automatically saves email attachments to a specific folder in OneDrive or SharePoint.
  • Synchronizing data between different applications: For example, you can create a flow that automatically adds new rows to a Google Sheets spreadsheet when a new entry is added to a Microsoft Forms form.
  • Sending notifications or reminders: For example, you can create a flow that sends a reminder email to team members when a deadline is approaching.
  • Streamlining approvals: For example, you can create a flow that routes a document for approval and sends notifications to the approvers.
  • Inventory management: A custom app within Power Apps that allows businesses to track and manage inventory levels, orders, and sales.
  • Expense reporting: An app within Power Apps that streamlines the process of submitting and approving expense reports.
  • Inspection and audit: An app within Power Apps that allows field workers to conduct inspections and audits using a mobile device, with the ability to capture photos, signatures, and other data.
  • Employee onboarding: An app within Power Apps that guides new employees through the onboarding process, providing them with the necessary information and resources.
