Microsoft 365 & SharePoint Services

Architecture, migration, identity, automation, and ongoing administration for small and mid-sized businesses on the Microsoft 365 platform.

Capabilities

Six service lines covering the full lifecycle of an SMB cloud transition — from pre-migration assessment through legacy infrastructure sunset.

Microsoft 365 Migration & Deployment

End-to-end migration from on-premise Windows file servers to SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business. Engagements include pre-migration inventory and assessment, automated taxonomy and document library deployment, role-based permissions configuration, file migration with validation, and post-migration reporting. The migration runs as a scripted pipeline built around the SharePoint Migration Tool (SPMT) and PnP PowerShell — versioned, repeatable, and auditable end to end.

Identity Migration to Microsoft Entra ID

Active Directory to Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) transitions for small businesses moving identity to the cloud. Scope includes MFA enforcement, Microsoft 365 Groups configuration, group restructuring, guest account management for external collaboration, and a clean cutover designed for minimal staff disruption. Engagements result in a cloud-native identity layer that's easier to govern than the on-premise environment it replaces.

SharePoint Architecture & Information Architecture

Custom SharePoint Online site architecture, document library design, folder taxonomy, metadata schemas, and permissions models built to match how your business actually works — not generic templates. This includes version history and recovery configuration, Microsoft 365 Backup, and the OneDrive for Business sync client deployment plan. The output is a content structure your staff can navigate without training and an admin can hand off without a manual.

Migration Validation & Audit

Pre-migration file inventory using TreeSize-style reporting, exception identification and remediation, hash-based data integrity verification, and post-migration reconciliation. NTFS-to-SharePoint permissions translation is documented file-by-file. Every byte is accounted for in a reconciliation report you can hand to auditors.

Automation & Scripting

PowerShell-driven deployment pipelines that turn manual IT projects into auditable, repeatable processes. Configurations are stored as code; deployments are versioned and logged. The automation layer is built on the PnP PowerShell module and the Microsoft Graph API, with JSON and CSV files as the deployment inputs — so business logic stays human-readable and a re-run produces the same result every time.

Server Decommission & Infrastructure Sunset

Structured decommission of legacy on-premise infrastructure: parallel-run validation against the new cloud environment, network device reconfiguration, VPN and remote-access transition, secure data destruction, and cloud-native replacement. Engagements include a multi-tier backup architecture (primary, local, offsite) and disaster recovery planning so the cutover doesn't trade old risk for new risk.

Adjacent Capabilities

Beyond Microsoft 365, our broader engineering background covers Python automation, API integration, large-scale data extraction, and mobile application development. We also work with legacy application archival, including Pervasive-backed systems and Sage BusinessWorks environments — useful when a cloud transition needs older line-of-business software preserved or migrated alongside the file estate.
