Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, run properly.
Most firms buy M365 or Google Workspace, set it up once, and never touch the admin console again. Then licenses go unused, security settings drift, and the help desk burns out resetting passwords. We run it like an operations function — monthly tuning, license cleanups, security reviews, and one named admin you can text.
Why most workspaces are running unmanaged.
We're paying for 12 unused E5 licenses.
Hires went, leavers stayed in the system. Nobody runs the reconciliation.
External sharing is wide open.
Default settings let anyone share anything with anyone. Auditor flagged it.
Resetting passwords is a full-time job.
Without self-service tools or single sign-on, help desk drowns in 'forgot my password.'
Microsoft Teams is a wild west.
Anyone creates a team. Channels everywhere. No retention policy. No data classification.
What we run.
- 01
License hygiene
Monthly review: who has what license, who's actually using it, who left. Downgrade or reclaim.
- 02
Security posture
Conditional access, MFA, device compliance, external sharing rules — set right and reviewed quarterly.
- 03
Mailbox + group lifecycle
New hire? Mailbox + groups ready day 1. Leaver? Cleaned, archived, license reclaimed in 24 hours.
- 04
Teams governance
Naming conventions, retention, who can create, who can guest in. Documented and applied.
- 05
Microsoft Purview / Vault
Data classification, retention, legal hold. Especially important for legal and regulated firms.
- 06
Quarterly health report
What we did, what we found, what's coming up. Written, plain English, executive-readable.
Levels of M365 management.
Where most firms are vs. where they should be.
| Set-and-forget | Reactive | Senator standard | |
|---|---|---|---|
| License review | Never | Annually | Monthly |
| MFA on all accounts | Not enforced | Most accounts | 100% including admins |
| External sharing controls | Default-open | Some restrictions | Tuned per group + audited |
| Joiner / leaver process | Manual, error-prone | Documented, sometimes followed | Automated from HR feed |
| Retention + e-discovery ready | No | Partial | Yes, tested |
| Cost trend | Always up | Slow growth | Trending down (waste removed) |
What we run.
What we deliver.
Average savings in the first 90 days of running your tenant.
On every account including service accounts, admins, and shared mailboxes.
From HR notification to access provisioned or revoked.
Quarterly written report covering license, security, governance, and recommendations.
“Senator found we had 47 inactive M365 accounts still licensed. Cleaned them up in the first month. License bill dropped by $3,200/month. Self-funded our entire engagement.”
Who needs this.
- Firms whose Microsoft 365 bill keeps going up but they're not sure why.
- Anyone preparing for a SOC 2, ISO, or HIPAA audit (workspace settings are heavily audited).
- Firms with high turnover where joiner/leaver process is breaking down.
- Anyone whose Teams or Google Drive has become a permission nightmare.
