Your IT system and AI strategy.
Built entirely in Microsoft 365.

When we talk with companies for the first time, this is usually what we hear. They've got Microsoft 365 licenses they're not fully using, and they want to do more with them. They typically have Microsoft 365 for email and the Office desktop apps, along with other cloud services and security tools that are often siloed, not fully integrated, and redundant to what they're already paying for in Microsoft 365. And they still have on-premises servers: domain controllers, a file server, a print server, and a SQL server for any on-premises business application.

Meanwhile, their most senior people, who have the deepest access to sensitive data, are bringing in their own AI subscriptions. One uses Claude, another uses a free version of ChatGPT, and another tried Copilot without any training and gave up on it. They assume these third-party AI services are secure, but they're not 100% certain. There's no AI policy or strategy, so nobody knows where company or client data is going. And nothing stops anyone else from connecting these AI tools to Microsoft 365, or from copying and pasting confidential information into them.

Here's what we'd be doing together:

• Simplifying your licensing to Microsoft 365 Business Premium with Copilot Business, or Microsoft 365 E7 for the top cloud service system Microsoft makes, and Microsoft 365 F3 for tablet, smartphone, and kiosk users.
• Moving your shared company files into Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive, still accessible through Windows File Explorer the way your people are used to.
• Replacing your EDR/AV with Microsoft Defender XDR.
• Rolling out Intune for device management and deployment.
• If you go all the way, moving your phone system to Microsoft Teams, your remaining servers to an Azure virtual network, and your virtual desktops to Windows 365.
• And replacing your firewall and VPN with Microsoft Entra ID.

When we're done, here's what you get to shut off and stop paying for: your file server, domain controllers, backup and disaster recovery system, print server, high-end firewall, VPN, and whatever third-party security and cloud service stack you were stitching together before. What's left on-site is an internet router, a Wi-Fi access point, a switch, and a network printer. That's it. Your back end will be 100% cloud services, with no hardware or software to integrate, maintain, or refresh ever again. And you'll have full business continuity included for free.

And here's the bigger picture: everything above is the foundation for your company's AI strategy. Inside Microsoft 365, we will set an AI policy so all your company's AI runs through Copilot, and your users have a choice of ChatGPT or Claude language models, inside your data and security guardrails. None of your information is used to train the models. Your people get answers from the data instead of hunting for files, and from there we extend it to your business applications and automated workflows.

Your users need training, too. AI only works when people know how to use it well, and how to use it safely, so we train them.
