Legacy infrastructure is expensive, hard to secure, and holding your organisation back. Your hosting contract is up and you need a plan that actually works.

Migrate safely, optimise continuously. Four engagement templates — from full estate migration through to ongoing licence optimisation — each with defined scope, timeline, and published pricing.

How we do this

This isn’t lift-and-shift and hope. We use our “Leave Nothing Behind” methodology — a repeatable, proven approach to cloud migration that covers assessment, planning, execution, and optimisation. Every engagement has a defined scope and price. Every one connects to a managed support pathway so you’re never left with infrastructure nobody maintains.

We’ve seen this problem before. We know the dependencies that stall migrations, the security gaps that get missed, and the legacy systems that get “forgotten” until audit. And we know that migration is only half the story — identity, landing zones, and ongoing licence optimisation matter just as much.

Migrate

Move your estate to Azure with a proven methodology and a properly designed landing zone. Two templates depending on where you are in the journey.

CL-001

Cloud Transformation & Migration

Full estate migration to Azure — from business case through decommissioning. Not lift-and-shift; proper transformation with benefit realisation tracked throughout. Our “Leave Nothing Behind” methodology covers assessment, planning, execution, and optimisation.

What you get

  • Current-state assessment and business case
  • Migration planning and architectural design
  • IaaS, PaaS, SaaS implementation across Azure
  • Server, database, and storage consolidation
  • Data centre exit and decommissioning
  • Target operating model for cloud-native ops

Timeline

4–26 weeks

Full estate migration. Scope depends on number of servers, applications, and complexity of legacy dependencies.

Price range

Scoped per engagement

Published on G-Cloud 14. Scales with estate size, number of applications, and legacy complexity.

Last time we ran this

Reading Borough Council — 96% servers migrated in under 6 months

Full estate migration to Azure. Planning through decommissioning. Leave Nothing Behind methodology applied end-to-end.

CL-002

Azure Landing Zone Design & Deployment

Design and deploy Azure Landing Zones — management groups, policies, networking, and identity integration. The foundation your migration sits on. Get this right first and everything that follows is faster, cheaper, and more secure.

What you get

  • Management group hierarchy and subscription design
  • Azure Policy and governance framework
  • Hub-spoke networking and connectivity
  • Identity integration with Entra ID
  • Security baseline and monitoring

Timeline

4–12 weeks

Design phase followed by deployment. Complexity driven by number of subscriptions and networking requirements.

Price range

£25k – £120k

Published on G-Cloud 14. Scope depends on number of landing zones and integration complexity.

Identity

Modern identity governance that’s secure and automated. You need this before or during migration — not after.

CY-001 Also in Cyber Security

Identity & Access Management Service

Entra ID deployment, MFA, conditional access, and lifecycle automation. Fragmented identity systems, weak MFA coverage, and joiners-movers-leavers taking weeks — fixed. This template also appears in Cyber Security.

What you get

  • End-to-end identity architecture design
  • Microsoft Entra ID deployment
  • MFA with conditional access policies
  • Joiner/mover/leaver lifecycle automation
  • Access governance and compliance framework

Timeline

3–12+ weeks

Assess, design, implement, validate. Scope depends on user count and federation complexity.

Price range

£25k – £120k+

Published on G-Cloud 14. Scope depends on user count and integration complexity.

Delivered across multiple councils

Same-day provisioning, 100% MFA coverage, automated lifecycle management

Standard engagement for councils migrating to Entra ID as part of cloud transformation or standalone identity modernisation.

Optimise

Migration is only half the story. Continuous optimisation stops costs creeping back up and keeps your estate right-sized.

CL-003

Licence Management as a Service

Continuous licence optimisation — identify waste, right-size agreements, manage renewals. This is an ongoing service, not a one-off audit. We find the savings and keep finding them.

What you get

  • Full licence estate audit and baseline
  • Waste identification and cost reduction plan
  • Right-sizing recommendations
  • Renewal management and vendor negotiation support
  • Ongoing optimisation reporting

Timeline

Initial: 2–4 weeks

Phase 1 fixed-price assessment, then ongoing monthly retained service for compliance, optimisation, and audit readiness.

Price range

£5k – £15k

Phase 1 initial assessment (fixed price). Phase 2 monthly retained service agreed based on scope. Published on G-Cloud 14.

Proof

Reading Borough Council

96% of servers migrated to Azure in under 6 months. Full estate migration using Leave Nothing Behind methodology.

Barking & Dagenham

40%+ cost reduction through cloud transformation. Infrastructure modernised, legacy dependencies resolved.

Hillingdon

36 services migrated to Azure. Structured migration programme with benefit realisation tracked throughout.

Typical reductions

Servers 40%, databases 35%, storage 40%. Measured and tracked, not estimated.

Is this for you?

Your hosting contract is up for renewal

And you’re paying more for legacy on-prem than Azure would cost. You need a migration plan that doesn’t disrupt live services. Start with Cloud Transformation & Migration.

You’re moving to Azure but the foundations aren’t in place

Subscriptions are proliferating, policies are inconsistent, and networking is ad-hoc. Get the landing zone right first. Start with Azure Landing Zone Design & Deployment.

Cyber audit flagged your identity posture

MFA coverage is patchy, joiners/leavers take days, and you can’t prove access governance to auditors. Start with Identity & Access Management.

You suspect you’re overpaying for licences

Renewals arrive and nobody knows if you’re using what you’re paying for. You need ongoing optimisation, not another spreadsheet. Start with Licence Management as a Service.
