Why Business Teams Are Building Their Own Apps – With IT’s Support

There’s a growing shift in how internal tools are developed. Increasingly, business teams, not just central IT, are building the apps they need to work more efficiently.

This isn’t about bypassing IT. It’s about giving teams the ability to respond quickly to change, within a secure and governed environment. Sintel Apps enables exactly that, running on top of your existing Microsoft 365 setup. There’s no need for extra platforms or new systems as it extends the tools you already use.

Business Needs Move Fast

Operations, HR, compliance and finance teams often face fast-changing requirements. They need adaptable tools, but IT teams are rightly focused on infrastructure, security, and critical systems. This creates a backlog of internal requests — things like:

  • Approval or incident tracking

  • Digital audit checklists

  • Simple workflow apps

These aren’t large-scale systems, but they’re important to the teams using them.

Why Sintel Apps Fits Naturally

Sintel Apps is designed for organisations using Microsoft 365. That means:

  • Data stays within your Microsoft environment

  • Users log in with existing Microsoft accounts

  • Seamless integration with SharePoint

  • IT retains governance and control

It’s not another SaaS product. It’s a straightforward way to build internal tools faster, with less friction.

Letting Business Teams Build, With IT Oversight

With Sintel Apps, teams can:

  • Create and adapt forms, workflows, and tracking tools

  • Respond quickly to changing processes

  • Operate independently within agreed boundaries

This reduces pressure on IT and avoids unapproved workarounds. IT still manages access, ensures compliance, and provides the necessary oversight.

A Hybrid Approach That Works

App development no longer needs to be either fully centralised or completely ad hoc. With Sintel Apps, business-led development becomes a realistic option — secure, scalable, and manageable.

The outcome:

  • Quicker delivery of internal tools

  • Less strain on IT teams

  • More responsive, agile operations

Make the Most of What You Already Have

Digital transformation doesn’t always require big new systems. Sometimes, it’s about making better use of what’s already in place.

If your organisation runs on Microsoft 365, Sintel Apps helps you build smarter, faster and with fewer barriers — a practical way to modernise how work gets done.
