Global retail giant, Marks & Spencer (M&S) needed a modern application that would allow employees to stay engaged with customers and stay connected and informed about upcoming sales activities. Using SharePoint lists, Microsoft Flow and PowerApps, the organization created an application that enables teams to track and distribute sales promotions and activities to store managers across their varying locations around the world. Today, more than 800 store managers can open the application from Microsoft Teams, mobile devices or desktops to view all in-store activity within the year from anywhere.
