About KeithO

I've spent my career sitting at the intersection of technology and the people who use it every day. Whether I'm advising a CIO on workforce enablement, helping a site owner tame their intranet, or showing a developer how to build SharePoint solutions in a fraction of the usual time — my goal is the same: make the complex practical.

For CIOs

Empower Your Frontline Workers

A strategic white paper on closing the digital divide between the boardroom and the frontline — and why it's the highest-leverage investment a CIO can make today.

📋 What This White Paper Covers

  • Why frontline workers are your most underserved digital constituency
  • The hidden productivity and retention costs of the access gap
  • A practical framework for frontline digital enablement
  • Technology patterns that work — and common pitfalls to avoid
  • How to build the business case for your leadership team

🎯 Who It's For

This paper is written for CIOs and senior IT leaders who are responsible for enabling a workforce where a significant portion of employees don't sit at a desk — yet are expected to stay informed, compliant, and connected to the rest of the organization.

🔍 Also of Interest for CIOs

Governance is one of the most common blockers to frontline enablement at scale. The MDFFS Auto Governance Tool is designed specifically for CIOs who need full visibility across their Microsoft 365 tenant — automatically crawling every day to surface non-compliant MDFFS forms before they become a problem.

If you own or manage a SharePoint site and need custom forms that actually work the way your users need them to, this is for you. Think of it as the handbook that makes a powerful tool approachable.

For SharePoint Developers & Citizen Developers

Build Custom SharePoint Forms in a Fraction of the Time

MDFFS is a methodology you can learn in just a few days — even with no professional development background — that lets you build custom SharePoint forms dramatically faster than Power Apps.

⚡ The Core Promise

Building custom forms in SharePoint the traditional way — especially with Power Apps — is slow, complex, and often requires specialist skills. MDFFS changes that. Whether you're an experienced SharePoint developer or a citizen developer who's never written a line of code professionally, you can be up and running with MDFFS in just a few days and immediately start delivering custom form solutions in a fraction of the usual time.

🚀 Why MDFFS vs. Power Apps?

  • Faster to build — what takes weeks in Power Apps takes days (or hours) with MDFFS
  • Faster to learn — a few days of focused learning and you're productive, not a multi-week ramp
  • Accessible to citizen developers — no deep technical background required
  • Simpler, more affordable licensing — no per user licenses, per use licenses, or client access licenses
  • More maintainable — solutions that your team can actually own and evolve
