Automating IT Support with Power Virtual Agents and Microsoft Teams

A large financial services company with - employees around the world. The company had problems managing its internal IT support, which was causing delays and putting a strain on their IT team.

Challenges:

  • Too Many IT Requests: The IT team was getting hundreds of support requests every day, like password resets or troubleshooting issues. It was taking too long to sort through these requests, which slowed everything down.
  • Slow Fixes Hurt Productivity: Employees had to wait a long time to get simple IT problems solved. This made it harder for them to get their work done on time
  • IT Team Overworked with Routine Tasks: The IT team spent a lot of time dealing with small, repetitive tasks, which left them less time to focus on bigger, more important projects.

Solution using Power Virtual Agent and Microsoft Teams Integration:

  • Power Virtual Agent (Chatbot): The chatbot was designed to handle common IT issues like password resets, installing software, and basic troubleshooting. Employees could type their questions into Teams, and the bot would help them right away.
  • Power Automate for Automated Workflows: The bot was connected to Power Automate, which allowed it to trigger automated actions. For example, if someone asked for a password reset, the bot could complete the task automatically
  • Teams as a Central Hub: Employees accessed the bot directly in Microsoft Teams, which they already used for chatting and collaborating with their teams. This made it easy for them to get IT help without switching to another app.
  • Built-In Knowledge Base: The bot was linked to the company’s help articles and guides, so it could give employees detailed instructions on how to fix common issues. If the problem was too big for the bot, it could forward the request to a live IT agent right inside Teams.

Results:

  • Less Work for IT Team: The bot was able to solve 60% of all IT support requests without needing help from a human. This meant the IT team could focus on more important tasks.
  • Smooth Escalation for Complex Issues: For bigger problems, the bot would collect all the necessary details and pass them to a live IT agent, making it faster for the agent to jump in and help.
  • Faster Help for Employees: Since the bot was available 24/7 in Teams, employees could get quick answers to simple problems in just a few minutes, instead of waiting for hours or days.
  • Cost Savings: By automating repetitive tasks, the company saved money because they didn’t need to hire extra IT staff. The bot could handle hundreds of requests a day without any extra cost
  • Happier Employees: Employees liked how easy it was to get IT help through Teams. They didn’t need to go through a complicated process to get their issues resolved.
  • Continuous Improvement: The company used the bot’s built-in reporting tools to see which requests came up the most often. They updated the bot regularly to make sure it could handle new types of requests as they came in.

Data Engineering & Data Management : Riding the Waves of Change

Data engineering & data management, the backbone of modern data-driven organizations, is constantly evolving. Here are a few key trends shaping the landscape:

  • Cloud-Native Everything: The cloud is no longer just for storage. Cloud-native technologies like Kubernetes, serverless computing, and cloud-specific data services are revolutionizing how data is processed, transformed, and analyzed.
  • Real-Time Data Processing: The demand for real-time insights is exploding. Technologies like Amazon Kinesis, AWS Lambda, Apache Kafka, Azure Event Hub, Azure Functions, Azure Stream Analytics and other stream processing platforms are enabling businesses to react to events as they happen, unlocking new opportunities in areas including IoT data processing/ analysis, fraud detection, personalized recommendations, and supply chain optimization.
  • AI/ML, Generative AI Integration: Enterprise AI's success hinges on access to high-quality data. However, real-world data often presents challenges like scarcity and privacy concerns. Synthetic data, generated algorithmically, offers a solution by creating artificial datasets that address these limitations. This approach is crucial for the development and advancement of generative AI.
  • Data Observability: Understanding the health and performance of the data pipelines is critical. Data observability tools provide real-time visibility into data quality, lineage, and anomalies, enabling proactive issue detection and resolution.
