Almost every business we assess is licensed for far more than it uses, and configured for far less than it needs. Microsoft 365 managed services means somebody owns your tenant — identity, devices, data protection, licensing and the monthly tidy-up.
You almost certainly are — and in two directions. Licences assigned to people who left, and Business Premium features you are already paying for but have never switched on: Intune, Defender, Entra conditional access, Purview.
No information architecture and no retention. It is survivable until the day you point Copilot at it, or receive a subject access request, or need to prove what a leaver could see.
Unmanaged devices with company data and no way to wipe them. Intune enrolment and compliance policies, with conditional access that simply refuses non-compliant devices.
We hold access to client tenants through Granular Delegated Admin Privileges — scoped roles with an expiry date, not a standing global administrator account. It is more work to set up and it is the only defensible way for a provider to hold the keys.
Tenant configuration is applied and monitored from a partner platform, so a policy we set for you is checked continuously rather than remembered. When something drifts — a conditional access policy disabled, an unexpected global admin, a new forwarding rule to an external address — it raises an alert the same day.
And you own your tenant. Always. If you leave us, delegated access is removed and the documentation goes with you.
A full read of your tenant: licences assigned versus used, security defaults, conditional access, sharing posture, mailbox rules, device compliance. Two days, read-only.
What you are paying for and not using, what is exposed, and what it would cost to fix — ranked by risk against effort.
The quick wins first: MFA coverage, legacy auth, external forwarding, admin roles. Then the structural work: device management, labelling, retention.
Monthly hygiene, licence true-up at renewal, and a documented baseline that stays applied.
Read-only, two days, and it usually pays for itself in reclaimed licences before we touch anything else.
No obligation. We will tell you if you do not need us.
