Talk to anyone in IT right now and they probably look tired. Not tired from solving hard problems, but tired from solving the wrong ones. They’re fielding low value requests, chasing down broken workflows, and babysitting tools nobody really owns.

This isn’t what they signed up for, though. That’s the problem.

Most IT teams are buried under tickets for things that never should’ve landed on their plate in the first place. Vendor forms, approval chains, field data entry etc. Half of it’s just duct taped processes someone promised to fix three years ago.

That’s where Power Platform comes in and can become an absolute game-changer.

The Microsoft Power Platform doesn’t replace IT by any means, it allows them to breathe. It pulls the repeatable and the tactical off their plate and puts it back in the hands of the business. Not recklessly. Not without structure. It does so with real governance, real visibility, and real outcomes.

You don’t need your best engineers building internal tools for operations. You need them focused on the things that actually move the business forward. Power Platform makes that possible, it gives IT the space to stop reacting and start leading.

The truth is that shift isn’t really optional anymore. The teams that keep funneling every request through IT are the same ones falling behind. Too slow to respond. Too reactive to lead. Too stuck to evolve.

So here’s the deal:

If you care about keeping your best technical talent, if you care about getting faster without cutting corners… Then stop asking IT to carry every internal request across the finish line.

Let the Power Platform do what it’s built to do.

Give IT their time back. They’ve got better things to build.

If you’re ready to clear the backlog and give IT the space to lead, start with one low stakes internal process. Automate it. Build it. Prove it. Then scale it and watch IT flourish.

In the oddly phrased words of my favorite UNC basketball Alum, Michael Jordan, “The Ceiling Is The Roof”

You know what he meant.
