Last position:
Business Intelligence Consultant (freelance) at NBIC – Nisanthan BI Consulting
Advising companies on building, migrating and optimising BI and reporting landscapes (Power BI, SQL, Python, ETL)
5 client engagements in real estate and finance since 05/2025: taking over and stabilising existing reporting, automating recurring standard and management reports, building cash-flow models
Proposal and feasibility assessments for BI and reporting projects
Using AI-assisted development (Claude Code) to accelerate automation, tooling and web/app development
Custom ERP system
Problem: A client's core processes ran on scattered, siloed Excel files with no central data storage – error-prone, hard to scale and impossible to analyse end-to-end.
Approach: Captured the business processes and requirements, modelled the data and developed iteratively together with the business team.
Implementation: Built a tailored, web-based ERP system with a central database, role-based modules and automated reporting – delivered using AI-assisted development in Claude Code.
Timesheet app
Starting point: Time tracking based on an overgrown, macro-heavy Excel template – maintenance-intensive, single-user and error-prone.
Implementation: Migrated all functionality and VBA macros into a standalone web app with central data storage, multi-user support and automated reporting.
Cash-flow modelling
Starting point: The existing cash-flow model covered standing investments only; project developments were missing from steering.
Implementation: Built and extended the CF model to include project-development cash flows.
Optimisation: Reviewed and optimised existing CF models and expanded the KPI outputs for reporting and steering.

About the technology
Enterprise Low-Code Application Development
Microsoft Power Apps enables organizations to build custom internal applications rapidly. The suite includes canvas apps for tailored pixel-perfect interfaces and model-driven apps that generate data-first layouts directly on top of Microsoft Dataverse. It helps teams replace complex spreadsheets, outdated paper processes, and rigid legacy tools with responsive web and mobile software.
The Power Platform Ecosystem
Modern Power Apps solutions rarely live in isolation. They connect deeply with tools across the wider Microsoft business stack:
- Microsoft Dataverse for relational data modeling and role-based security
- Power Automate for end-to-end cloud and desktop workflows
- Power Pages for secure external customer or partner portals
- Power BI for embedded interactive dashboards
- Azure services for custom API connectors and microservice backends
Common Business Deliverables
Companies implement Power Apps to automate manual departmental tasks. Specialists build inventory tracking systems, field service inspection tools, employee onboarding workflows, capital expenditure approval engines, and incident management hubs. These applications integrate directly into Microsoft Teams and SharePoint to fit right into existing employee workspaces without friction.
Extending with Pro-Code Development
While marketed as a low-code tool, complex implementations require pro-code extensibility. Strong professionals use the Power Apps Component Framework to create custom UI controls using TypeScript and React. They write custom connectors against REST APIs, implement Azure Functions for complex business calculations, and maintain reliable application lifecycle management using Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions.
Signs Your Organization Needs External Support
Internal citizen development initiatives often reach technical boundaries that demand specialized intervention:
- Canvas apps suffer from severe delegation issues and slow data queries
- Security roles require granular row-level and column-level permission models
- Solutions fail across dev, test, and production environments
- Complex enterprise ERP or CRM systems need bespoke data connectors
What Distinguishes Top Specialists
Premier professionals understand enterprise architecture beyond simple drag-and-drop mechanics. They understand relational database design, API throttling limits, and licensing implications across Microsoft 365 and standalone plans. They deliver documented, maintainable solutions built according to enterprise governance guidelines.
Frequently asked questions
The facts hiring teams ask for most often when it comes to Microsoft Power Apps.
In Microsoft Power Apps, canvas apps grant complete control over user interface layout, design, and user experience, behaving much like a blank canvas. Model-driven apps start with your underlying data structure in Microsoft Dataverse and automatically generate standard responsive layouts suited for complex business processes.
Organizations select Power Apps when they need rapid deployment of internal departmental software that sits natively inside Microsoft 365. Custom development remains necessary for customer-facing commercial products, highly bespoke animations, or applications requiring non-standard infrastructure outside the Microsoft cloud.
A qualified Power Platform professional usually brings strong expertise in Power Automate cloud flows and Dataverse data architecture. Senior specialists also know TypeScript and React for developing custom controls through the Power Apps Component Framework, alongside automated deployment pipelines.
Poor performance in Microsoft Power Apps typically stems from improper data handling, such as non-delegable queries that pull entire tables to the client device. Vetted professionals design structured queries using delegation-compatible functions, optimize collection usage, and leverage server-side processing.
Standard canvas and model-driven solutions created with Power Apps target licensed internal employees within your corporate tenant. For external customers, vendors, or citizens, professionals deploy Power Pages, which connects securely to Dataverse while handling anonymous or external authenticated logins.
Mature Microsoft Power Apps implementations use managed and unmanaged solutions to segregate development, testing, and production environments. Professionals set up source control pipelines in Azure DevOps or GitHub to automate solution export, unpacking, testing, and deployment safely across tenants.
Yes, nearly all Microsoft Power Apps projects succeed entirely in remote settings because configuration occurs directly in browser-based cloud studios and tenant environments. Smooth remote delivery requires clear role-based access controls, environment security groups, and regular architectural reviews.
Evaluate practical knowledge of Dataverse data modeling, security concepts, and complex business logic written in Power Fx. A strong Power Apps specialist can explain how they overcome delegation limitations, build custom API connectors, and structure enterprise environment governance.
