Google Workspace
Deployment, domain and organisational-unit design, sharing policy and admin hardening as a licensed partner.
Capability
Digital Workspace
Day one should take ten minutes, not ten emails.
Google Workspace, Microsoft 365 and device management joined into one experience.
The brief
The workspace is the product your employees use most
Every person you hire spends their entire working life inside mail, chat, documents and whatever device you handed them. When that stack is stitched together from three consoles and a checklist in someone’s notes, the cost shows up as slow onboarding, orphaned accounts and licences billed for people who left a year ago. We join identity, collaboration and device management into one enrolment path — so joining, moving and leaving are three buttons rather than three days.
Signals you may recognise
- A new joiner waits days for access, and nobody owns the checklist.
- You are paying for licences belonging to people who have already left.
- Personal drives and shared drives hold the same files at different versions.
What we deliver
Digital Workspace services in detail
Each item below is scoped, priced and delivered on its own — take one, or take the set.
Microsoft 365
Tenant configuration, Teams and SharePoint structure, and licence-tier mapping to how each role actually works.
Migration between platforms
Mail, drive, calendar and permissions moved with history intact and a co-existence window so nothing is stranded.
Identity & directory
A single directory behind every application, with single sign-on and automated joiner-mover-leaver provisioning.
Unified endpoint management
Windows, macOS, iOS and Android under one enrolment — policy, compliance and remote wipe from one console.
Zero-touch onboarding
Device ships direct to the employee, enrols itself on first boot and arrives configured with their apps and access.
Collaboration architecture
A shared-drive and channel structure with retention rules, designed before the sprawl rather than after it.
Licence optimisation
Quarterly review of assignment and tier against real usage, reclaiming what is dormant and downgrading what is over-specified.
What it produces
Outcomes we hold ourselves to
Provisioning time
From HR record created to a fully licensed, enrolled and access-ready employee.
Every device known
No unmanaged laptop holding company data outside your visibility.
Licence waste removed
Typical first-year reduction from reclaiming dormant seats and right-tiering the rest.
One identity everywhere
Single sign-on across the applications your teams open every day.
How the work runs
Design the lifecycle, then automate it
We map how a person joins, changes role and leaves, and make each of those a defined, automated path.
Map
Chart the employee journey
Roles, access needs, device profiles and the exit path — written down as a matrix rather than tribal knowledge.
Unify
One directory to rule them
Identity consolidated, single sign-on connected, and enrolment policies built per device platform.
Automate
Wire it to HR
Provisioning triggered by the HR system, so access appears and disappears without a ticket being raised.
Enable
Bring people with you
Role-specific training, floor-walking during cutover and a champions group to carry adoption afterwards.

When clients call us
Situations this work is built for
Hiring in fast bursts
Twenty joiners in a month handled without twenty manual setups or a single missed access request.
Consolidating two platforms
Post-acquisition mail and file estates merged into one tenancy without losing history or calendars.
Going hybrid properly
Devices and access that work identically from an office desk, a home study or a client site.
The difference
How we approach workspace work
The technical migration is the easy half.
We plan the leaver first
Offboarding is where data walks out and licences pile up, and it is the step everyone designs last. We start there.
Structure before sprawl
Drive and channel architecture agreed upfront. Retrofitting order onto three years of accumulated folders is far more expensive.
Adoption is scoped and staffed
Training, comms and floor support are line items in the plan, because a migration nobody was prepared for reads as a failure however clean the cutover was.
Questions
Answered before you ask
Google tends to suit collaboration-heavy and cloud-native teams; Microsoft suits organisations with deep Office file dependencies, Windows estates or specific compliance tooling. We assess against how your teams work rather than defaulting.
No. Mail, calendar, contacts and drive content move with folder structure and permissions preserved, and we run a co-existence period so both platforms work during the transition.
Yes, through a managed profile that separates work data from personal. Company data can be wiped independently without touching anything of theirs.
For under two hundred users, typically three to five weeks including preparation and a co-existence window. Complex shared-mailbox and permission estates extend that.
