Direct effects for Operations**

- Direct Impact on IT Operations
- Increased administrative workload for IT administrators
- Role Impacted: IT Administrators
- Admins will need to review and potentially update existing app setup policies to include meeting apps, which may require additional time and resources to ensure proper configuration and testing.
- Reference: [Microsoft 365 Roadmap](https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=&searchterms=131169)

- Potential for user confusion or disruption during the transition
- Role Impacted: End Users
- Users may experience a change in their Teams interface as new meeting apps are pre-pinned, which could lead to initial confusion or resistance to the new setup. Proper communication and training will be necessary to mitigate this.
- Reference: [Microsoft Teams User Experience](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-teams/group-chat-software)

- Dependencies and Interdependencies

- Role Impacted: IT Administrators, End Users
- The new feature relies on existing Teams functionalities and may affect how users interact with other integrated apps. Admins must ensure that the pre-pinned apps do not conflict with other tools or workflows already in place.
- Reference: [Microsoft Teams Integration](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/overview)

- Impact on training and support resources
- Role Impacted: IT Support Staff, End Users
