Microsoft 365 & Copilot

The full Microsoft Stack.
Done
properly

Microsoft 365 Business Premium is the most secure version of M365 for SMEs — and most businesses are running something less. As a Microsoft Solutions Partner for Modern Work and Security, we deploy, manage, and secure the Microsoft stack. Including the parts most MSPs overlook.

Microsoft Solutions Partner · Modern Work & Security · Fewer than a handful in the West Midlands

Microsoft Solutions Partner
Microsoft 365 Business Premium
The security-first M365 tier. Includes Intune, Defender, Entra ID P1, and Azure AD Premium. The tier most businesses should be on.
Microsoft Copilot
Deployed properly, trained to your team, adoption measured. Not just a licence you don’t use.
Azure Virtual Machines & Cloud
Infrastructure migration, Azure VM deployment, Azure Backup, and DR. Hardware costs become predictable OpEx.
Intune, Purview & Entra ID
Device management, data governance, and identity protection. The security layer that most businesses don’t configure.
What the accreditation means

Microsoft Solutions Partner is not a
reseller licence.

Any company can resell Microsoft licences. Solutions Partner status is different — Microsoft independently verifies your technical depth, customer satisfaction scores, and ongoing training investment. There are very few in the West Midlands with Modern Work & Security specialisation.

What this means for you: better licensing terms, access to Microsoft-funded deployment support, direct escalation to Microsoft engineering, and a partner who has passed Microsoft’s own bar for technical capability. Not just someone who passed a reseller exam.

Common M365 problems we fix
01
Wrong licence tier
“We’re on Microsoft 365 Business Standard. Our previous provider said it was fine. We didn’t know there was a security tier above it.”
02
Copilot sitting unused
“We bought Copilot licences six months ago. Most of the team has opened it once. We’re not getting anything from it.”
03
Hardware replacement
“We have ageing servers we keep patching. The capital cost of replacing them is something we keep kicking down the road.”
04
Security not configured
“We have M365 but Intune, Conditional Access, and Defender are either off or unconfigured. It’s licences we’re paying for but not using.”
What we deploy and manage

The Microsoft stack
All of it.

We manage the full Microsoft environment — licences, deployment, security configuration, and ongoing management. One partner for all of it.

M365 — PRODUCTIVITY & SECURITY
Microsoft 365 Business Premium
The version of M365 that includes Microsoft Defender for Business, Intune device management, Entra ID Premium P1, and Azure Information Protection. Most businesses are on Standard or Basic — both of which lack the security layer. We review your current licences and migrate you to the right tier, often for less than you expect.
COPILOT — AI DEPLOYMENT
Microsoft Copilot — done properly
Copilot is not a plug-in. It requires data governance (Purview), proper Entra ID configuration, and a team that knows how to use it. We assess your environment before deployment, configure the security and data layer, roll it out to users, run adoption training, and measure whether it’s actually saving time. Not just a licence.
AZURE — CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE
Azure VM, Backup & Migration
If you’re running ageing on-premises servers, Azure changes the conversation. Capital expenditure you’ve been avoiding becomes predictable monthly operating cost. Azure Virtual Machines, Azure Backup, and disaster recovery — your infrastructure in Microsoft’s data centres, managed by us. We offer a free Azure migration assessment for clients evaluating the move.
INTUNE & PURVIEW — GOVERNANCE
Device management and data governance
Intune manages every device in your organisation — enforcing security policies, deploying software, and wiping lost devices remotely. Purview governs your data — classifying it, protecting it, and ensuring sensitive information doesn’t leave the organisation. Both are included in Business Premium. Most businesses never switch them on.
30yr

400+
M365 environments managed Across clients from 5 users to 200+. We’ve seen the configuration mistakes, the licence waste, and the security gaps. We know what good looks like.
Fabric
Microsoft Fabric — available now Unified analytics platform bringing together data engineering, data science, and Power BI. We’re building this capability for clients with real data integration requirements.

Are you getting everything from M365 you’re paying for?

Most businesses aren’t. A free licence and security review takes an hour and shows you exactly what you have, what’s configured, and what you’re missing. No obligation, no sales pitch. Just an honest look at where you are.
