Azure Consulting & Microsoft 365 For Business, Engineered For Growth
Azure consulting, Microsoft 365 for business, identity and endpoints designed as one strategic platform, secure by default, cost-optimised, and ready to scale, with Azure migration handled end to end.
Our Approach to Cloud & Infrastructure
Your cloud platform should be a strategic asset, not a cost centre. Our Azure consulting and Microsoft 365 for business practice designs and runs Microsoft 365, Azure and your wider infrastructure as one joined-up platform, engineered for security, productivity and predictable spend as you grow.

Where Cloud & Infrastructure Makes the Biggest Difference
Azure lift-and-shift from ageing on-prem servers
Server hardware is out of warranty, the server room is a liability, and a refresh would sink capital better spent elsewhere.
What we deliver: We plan and execute an Azure migration with modelled 3-year run costs, so you retire hardware, harden security and free up capital.
Microsoft 365 tenant cleanup after acquisition
You've acquired a business and now have two Microsoft 365 tenants, overlapping licences and inconsistent security baselines.
What we deliver: We consolidate tenants, rationalise licensing and harmonise security controls, one estate, one identity model, aligned to the group.
Intune Autopilot rollout across the device fleet
Devices are inconsistently configured, shipping laptops takes days and lost devices can't be reliably wiped.
What we deliver: We deploy Intune and Autopilot so new devices ship straight from the vendor, self-provision on first login and are fully manageable from day one.
License rationalisation to fund a security uplift
Microsoft 365 licensing has drifted, duplicates and unused SKUs are burning cash, and there's no budget for security improvements.
What we deliver: We audit and re-plan licensing, then reinvest the savings into MFA, EDR and monitoring, security uplift with no net spend increase.
Frequently Asked Questions
We're already on Microsoft 365, can you take it over?+
Yes. We run a tenant assessment, fix the security and licensing gaps, then take ongoing ownership.
Do you do Azure as well as Microsoft 365?+
Yes, including Azure design, migrations, identity and ongoing FinOps to keep spend under control.
Can you replace our on-prem servers?+
In most cases, yes, we'll plan a pragmatic migration that retires kit you no longer need.
What is the difference between Microsoft 365 Business Premium and E3?+
Business Premium is capped at 300 users and bundles Office apps, Intune device management and advanced security for SMEs. E3 has no user cap, adds enterprise-grade compliance, information protection and analytics, and is the right choice once you outgrow 300 seats or need advanced governance.
How much does an Azure migration cost for a UK SME?+
A typical SME lift-and-shift migration of servers, file shares and line-of-business apps runs £8,000 to £30,000 in professional services, plus Azure consumption. We always model 3-year run costs alongside the migration so the business case is complete before you commit.
Should we stay on-premises or move to the cloud?+
It depends on workload, latency, licensing and compliance. For most UK SMEs, Microsoft 365 plus Azure for line-of-business workloads is cheaper, more resilient and easier to secure than refreshing on-prem hardware. A vCIO-led assessment gives you a defensible 3-year answer.
How do you control Azure costs after we migrate?+
We run monthly Azure FinOps reviews: right-sizing VMs, moving eligible workloads to reserved instances or savings plans, cleaning up orphaned resources and setting budget alerts. Most clients see 20 to 35 per cent cost reduction within the first quarter.
