Opportunities**
Streamlined Team Management
The new feature allows for easier management of teams by converting owner teams to access teams directly in the Power Platform admin center. This reduces the complexity involved in managing team permissions and access to records, which can lead to improved efficiency for administrators.
- next-steps: Train IT administrators on the new feature and update internal documentation to reflect the new process. Schedule a workshop to explore best practices for team management using the new functionality.

Enhanced User Access Control
With the ability to convert owner teams to access teams, organizations can implement more granular access control for users. This ensures that users have the appropriate level of access to records without the overhead of ownership, which can improve security and compliance.
- next-steps: Review current team structures and access levels to identify potential areas for improved access control. Develop a policy for team access that aligns with organizational security requirements.
- roles: Compliance Officers, IT Security Managers, Team Leaders

Reduction in Administrative Overhead
The new feature reduces the need for manual reassignments of records when changing team types. This can save time for IT staff and reduce the potential for errors during the process, leading to a more reliable management of team records.
- next-steps: Analyze current administrative processes to identify time savings and efficiency gains. Consider automation opportunities for related administrative tasks to further reduce overhead.
