Microsoft Practice

Get the value you are already paying Microsoft for

Most enterprises license far more of the Microsoft cloud than they use. Our Microsoft practice covers Azure, Microsoft 365, Power Platform, Dynamics 365, Fabric and Copilot as one estate — governed identity, consolidated data, automated processes and AI that actually reaches your users.

Overview

One estate: identity, productivity, data, applications and AI

We treat the Microsoft cloud as a single system. Entra ID governs who can do what. Purview classifies and protects the information. Fabric consolidates the data. Power Platform automates the long tail of processes. Dynamics 365 runs the core commercial motions. Copilot sits on top — and only works well when the four layers beneath it are in order.

That sequencing matters. Copilot deployments disappoint when permissions are loose and content is unlabelled, because the assistant faithfully surfaces the mess. We fix the foundation, then light up AI.

Our engineers hold current Azure, Power Platform, Security and Dynamics certifications, and we deliver through Azure DevOps or GitHub with the same engineering rigour we apply to custom software.

01

Identity first

Entra ID conditional access, PIM, entitlement management and lifecycle automation as the security perimeter.

02

Governed low-code

Environment strategy, DLP policies, solution ALM and a citizen-developer programme that does not create shadow IT.

03

Copilot-ready content

Purview labelling, permission remediation, SharePoint information architecture and oversharing controls.

04

Unified analytics

Fabric and OneLake as the single analytics substrate feeding Power BI and AI workloads.

What we build

Capabilities you get on day one

The components below are engineered patterns we have shipped repeatedly — not concepts we would be exploring for the first time on your project.

Zero-trust identity

Conditional access baselines, MFA and passwordless rollout, privileged access workflows and automated joiner-mover-leaver.

Power Platform at scale

Environment strategy, managed solutions, pipelines, DLP policy and a CoE that keeps 200 apps maintainable.

Copilot enablement

Oversharing assessment, sensitivity labelling, SharePoint remediation, prompt libraries and measured adoption.

Fabric & Power BI

OneLake medallion architecture, certified semantic models, deployment pipelines and workspace governance.

Process automation

Power Automate and RPA replacing spreadsheet-and-email workflows, with exception handling and audit trails.

Dynamics 365 delivery

Configuration-first implementations, clean data migration, and extensions built with supported patterns only.

How we deliver

How a microsoft services engagement runs

Six stages, each with a defined output. You can stop after any one of them and still hold something useful.

  1. Tenant & estate review

    Licence utilisation, security posture, identity hygiene, data sprawl and adoption analytics across the whole tenant.

  2. Target operating model

    Environment strategy, governance policy, ALM standards, support model and a value roadmap sequenced by dependency.

  3. Foundation remediation

    Identity, conditional access, labelling and permission cleanup — the work that makes everything after it succeed.

  4. Build & migrate

    Workload delivery through managed solutions and IaC, with parallel running for migrations and reversible cutovers.

  5. Adoption

    Champions network, role-based training, in-product guidance and usage dashboards tied to the business case.

  6. Manage & evolve

    Release-wave impact assessment, quarterly governance reviews, licence optimisation and continuous enhancement.

FAQs

Microsoft Services — frequently asked

Is our organisation ready for Microsoft 365 Copilot?

Technically it takes minutes to license; practically, readiness depends on permissions and content hygiene. Copilot respects existing permissions, so if a site is overshared, Copilot will surface it faster than any user could. We run a readiness assessment covering oversharing, sensitivity labelling, stale content and information architecture, then remediate before rollout.

Can Power Platform handle a real enterprise application?

Yes, within its envelope. Model-driven apps on Dataverse are genuinely suitable for case management, field operations, approvals and internal portals. We use it for those and recommend custom code where you need extreme scale, complex algorithms, sub-100ms latency or heavy third-party integration. We tell you which side of the line you are on before we build.

Should we move from Azure Synapse to Microsoft Fabric?

For new analytics workloads, Fabric is where Microsoft is investing and is usually the right target. For a large, working Synapse estate the case is about roadmap and cost, not urgency. We assess workload by workload and typically recommend a phased coexistence rather than a big-bang migration.

Do you provide ongoing Microsoft 365 and Azure support?

Yes — managed services covering tenant administration, security monitoring through Defender and Sentinel, patch and release-wave management, Power Platform CoE operations, licence optimisation and a named service manager with monthly reviews.

How do you control Power Platform sprawl?

A Centre of Excellence: environment strategy with clear promotion paths, DLP policies restricting connectors by environment, managed solutions and pipelines for ALM, an application inventory with ownership and support tiers, and a maker community with published standards.
