Azure that an audit will pass and a CFO will sign off

Migrate to Azure or pick up an existing tenant we didn't build. Landing-zone-as-code, conditional access, FinOps from day one, and a backup story you can demonstrate.

Who this is for

Migrating to Azure

M365 already in place; servers, line-of-business apps and file shares still on-premises. We design the landing zone before you spend on consumption.

Inheriting a messy tenant

Built by someone who's no longer here. We'll audit, document, and bring it under management with a written runbook.

FinOps fire-fighting

AWS-style sprawl on Azure. Tagging absent, no owners, no budget alerts. We'll pin down spend and stop the bleed.

What's included

Azure landing zone

Terraform / Bicep landing zone with hub-and-spoke network, policy as code, and a documented exit plan.

Identity (Entra ID)

Conditional access, MFA / passkey enforcement, JIT for privileged roles, named-individual accountability for SMCR-equivalent regimes.

Backup & BCDR

Per-service RTO/RPO documented. Quarterly tested failover on the Regulated tier with recovery-time + dataset hash logged.

FinOps

Cost dashboards with named owners. Budget alerts, unused-resource sweeps, RI/Savings-Plan recommendations reviewed quarterly.

Microsoft 365 governance

Mailbox & group lifecycle, Copilot / M365 Copilot governance, retention & eDiscovery.

Hybrid & private cloud

Where Azure isn't the right answer (low-latency, data residency, cost) we'll run a Vitalytics OpenStack tenancy alongside it.

How we deliver

  1. Discovery — Landing-zone audit + gap analysis. Comes with a written report you can share with the board.
  2. Design — Terraform / Bicep modules versioned in your GitLab. You own the code; we run it on your behalf.
  3. Run — Apply changes via PR review, never the portal. Every change reviewed, every change reversible.
  4. Optimise — Monthly FinOps review. Quarterly architecture review against Azure Well-Architected Framework.
