Multi-factor authentication is optional
Enabled for some people, skipped for the ones who found it annoying — usually the ones with the most access.
Microsoft 365 administration
Microsoft 365, configured the way it was meant to be.
Powerful, and easy to misconfigure. We handle tenant setup, migration, identity and access, device management and the day-to-day administration — including Intune, Exchange Online, Windows Server, VMware and SCCM where your environment needs them.
- Security baseline applied, not assumed
- Migration with no mailbox left behind
- Ongoing admin or a clean handover
The problem
Most 365 tenants are running on their setup-day defaults.
It works, so nobody revisits it. The gaps only become visible when something goes wrong, and by then the gap has been open for years.
Former staff still have access
Accounts never disabled, shared mailboxes still forwarding, and licences still being paid for.
Nobody manages the devices
Company mail on personal phones with no policy, no encryption requirement and no way to wipe a lost device.
You are paying for the wrong licences
Premium seats for people who need basic ones, and basic seats for people missing features they need.
Our approach
A security baseline, then the boring discipline of keeping it.
Most of the value here is not clever. It is conditional access configured properly, joiners and leavers handled consistently, devices enrolled, and licences reviewed quarterly instead of never.
-
Identity secured first
MFA enforced, conditional access policies applied, admin roles reduced to who genuinely needs them.
-
Devices enrolled and managed
Intune policies for encryption, compliance and remote wipe across company and personal devices.
-
Mail protected properly
Anti-phishing, spoofing protection, SPF, DKIM and DMARC configured and verified.
-
Licences reviewed regularly
Right tier for each role, unused seats reclaimed, cost reported rather than assumed.
What's included
What we handle.
One-off projects, a security remediation, or ongoing administration as a monthly service.
Tenant setup and configuration
New tenant build with a security baseline applied from the start rather than retrofitted.
Email and data migration
Mailboxes, files and calendars moved from an existing platform with minimal disruption.
Identity and access management
Entra ID, MFA, conditional access, role assignment and joiner-mover-leaver processes.
Intune and device management
Enrolment, compliance policies, application deployment and remote wipe capability.
Exchange Online security
Anti-phishing and anti-spoofing, mail flow rules, SPF, DKIM and DMARC.
SharePoint and Teams governance
Site structure, sharing policies and permission models that do not sprawl.
Backup and retention
Retention policies and third-party backup, because native retention is not a backup.
Windows Server and virtualization
On-premise and hybrid environments, including VMware and SCCM where present.
Licence optimisation
Right-sizing subscriptions across your users and reclaiming what is not being used.
Ongoing administration
Day-to-day user management, support and monitoring on a monthly basis.
Outcomes
What proper administration gives you.
A materially harder target
Enforced MFA and conditional access remove the overwhelming majority of account compromise attempts.
Licence spend you can justify
Right-sizing typically finds savings in the first review, often enough to cover the engagement.
Onboarding that takes minutes
Consistent joiner and leaver processes instead of a checklist someone half-remembers.
Control over company data on personal phones
Device policies mean a lost phone is an inconvenience, not an incident.
Recoverable from mistakes
Proper backup and retention means a deleted mailbox or ransomware event is survivable.
Someone to call
Day-to-day admin handled by people who know your tenant, rather than a general support queue.

Questions
About microsoft 365 administration.
If yours is not here, ask us directly — you will get a straight answer rather than a sales call.
Yes. Mail, calendars, contacts and files migrate across. We run it in stages with a defined cutover so people are not locked out mid-day, and keep the old environment available until everything is verified.
Not in the way most people assume. Retention policies and the recycle bin help with accidental deletion within a window, but they are not a backup and will not save you from ransomware or a malicious deletion discovered late. We recommend third-party backup and will explain exactly what native retention does and does not cover.
It depends on whether you need device management and advanced threat protection. Premium includes Intune and Defender features that matter if staff use personal devices or you handle sensitive data. Standard is enough for a small team on managed desktops. We work it out per role rather than buying one tier for everyone.
Either. Some clients want a one-off remediation and a documented handover. Others want us handling day-to-day administration monthly. Both are fine, and the documentation is the same either way.
Hybrid environments are common and we work with them — Windows Server, Active Directory, VMware and SCCM alongside the cloud tenant. We will also tell you honestly which parts are worth keeping on-premise.
Planned properly, most users notice a password prompt and a short mail delay. We migrate in batches, communicate timing in advance, and keep support available through the cutover window.
