At a time when AI is everywhere (and Teams is no exception), most organizations that technically have Microsoft 355 Teams through their Microsoft 365/Office 365 subscription still face low adoption, unmanaged sprawl, security concerns and unclear ownership, limiting its potential as a productivity engine. 

Withum Leads Microsoft Teams Consulting with Outcomes and Risk Reduction

Native and Third-Party Features, Integrations and Automation

Move beyond Teams as a chat tool into a true business system for communication and file management. Implement purpose-built applications and automations that live inside Teams to support and accelerate your IT, HR, finance, marketing, customer service and other critical operational departments. We work with both native tools and can integrate  your preferred third-party software.

Summarize meetings and chats, capture decisions and action items, answer questions using work context, draft clear replies and updates, surface and query Copilot Studio agents and improve findability by surfacing key information across conversations and shared files.

Create complex automated cloud workflows tailored specifically to your business needs. Get functionality across your most used apps and services both within and outside the Microsoft suite of products.

Create and manage tickets from Teams, push incident alerts to the right channel and speed up triage with shared incident context.

Deliver build, deployment and outage notifications in real time, with escalation and ownership baked into the workflow.

Convert chats into trackable work, assign owners and due dates and keep delivery updates tied to the team’s daily collaboration space with integrated Planner or third-party apps. 

Organize and surface account and pipeline changes in channels, coordinate handoffs and reduce “Where do we stand?” meetings.

Centralize documents with secure permissions, version control and streamlined governance, with automation for updates, approvals and lifecycle management to reduce sprawl.

Embed dashboards in Teams so leaders can monitor KPIs in and trigger follow-up actions when thresholds are hit.

Enable internal and external users to work together with appropriate access controls, enforced retention and compliance policies and built-in data loss prevention to safeguard sensitive information.
