A local metal fabrication company approached us after encountering serious issues with their Microsoft 365 setup. Over time, their environment had become fragmented and inconsistent, with no clear standards in place. Multiple technologies were being used without alignment, and many features included in their Microsoft 365 subscriptions were left untappe resulting in inefficiencies, security gaps, and user frustration.
Identified Issues
Security not enforced on Microsoft 365 tenant
Using IMAP/POP3 mail servers for email
No centralised system for sharing files, calendars or contacts
Unsure which Microsoft 365 licences were in use
Multiple Microsoft 365 tenants configured and not setup correctly
Implemented Solution
Correctly configured primary Microsoft 365 tenant implementing best practices
Complete security overhaul of Microsoft 365 tenant including enforcing MFA
Migrated away from IMAP/POP3 accounts
Migrated company data to SharePoint/Teams for better collaboration
General clean up of duplicate user accounts on PCs
Implented good password hygiene and security policies
Outcome
The business now operates on a clean, secure, and fully optimised Microsoft 365 environment. They’ve reduced risk, improved productivity, and gained confidence that their technology supports their growth rather than holding them back.
