GOALS

The Head of I.T. is responsible for not only ensuring every device within the organization is running correctly but also what new devices, software, methodologies are needed to equip business units with the right tools. The goal of all I.T. departments is to have a smooth-running organization where I.T. is regarded as an enabler and not a blocker.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is FlowForma deployed within our IT environment?

FlowForma is built natively on Microsoft SharePoint and Microsoft 365. It is deployed within your existing Microsoft tenant, meaning there is no separate infrastructure to manage and no external data silos. This allows IT teams to leverage existing governance, security, identity, and compliance controls already in place across Microsoft 365.

What does the platform architecture look like and how does it scale?

FlowForma is designed for enterprise-scale process automation. It leverages SharePoint’s proven scalability and reliability, supporting thousands of users, complex workflows, and high-volume process execution without performance degradation. Scaling is handled through Microsoft’s cloud infrastructure rather than custom platform maintenance.

How does FlowForma fit into our development, testing, and release lifecycle?

FlowForma supports structured lifecycle management with separate environments for development, testing (UAT), and production. IT teams can control deployment, manage versioning, and ensure changes are validated before being released, aligning with enterprise change-management and DevOps practices.

How does FlowForma integrate with our core business systems?

FlowForma integrates seamlessly with Microsoft 365 and SharePoint and supports integration with thousands of external systems such as ERP, CRM, HR, and finance platforms via APIs. This allows processes to orchestrate data across systems without custom code.

What security controls are built into FlowForma?

FlowForma leverages Microsoft’s enterprise-grade security, including Azure Active Directory for identity management, role-based access control, encryption at rest and in transit, and detailed audit trails. IT teams retain full control over who can access, design, and execute processes.

Where is our data stored and who owns it?

All data remains within your Microsoft 365 tenant and SharePoint environment. FlowForma does not take ownership of customer data or store it in third-party systems. This ensures full data sovereignty and alignment with internal security and compliance policies.

How does FlowForma support regulatory and compliance requirements?

FlowForma’s AI capabilities enhance process efficiency through features such as intelligent summarisation, data extraction, and decision support. Customer data is not used to train public AI models, and AI features operate within secure enterprise boundaries, ensuring data privacy and governance.

How does FlowForma balance citizen development with IT governance?

FlowForma empowers business users to build processes using no-code tools, while IT maintains oversight through permissions, environment controls, governance policies, and audit logs. This reduces IT backlog without compromising security, compliance, or architectural standards.
