Case study

Professional services · EMEA

A multi-division professional services firm operating across EMEA

The client was running 14 applications across manually managed on-premises servers with no environment separation, no identity governance, and Active Directory managed by a single administrator. They needed to move to Azure without disrupting operations.

What we built

  • Azure landing zone with hub-and-spoke networking and centralised firewall
  • Entra ID governance: 60+ security groups, self-service access packages per application
  • Data platform: Data Lake, Data Factory pipelines, Databricks workspace
  • Integration layer: Azure API Management and Service Bus connecting internal systems
  • Full environment parity: Prod, Dev, and QA for every workload

Outcomes

  • All 14 applications running in Azure within agreed scope
  • Zero standing administrative access — elevated access is just-in-time
  • Data team provisioning environments in under 4 minutes via self-service

14 apps migrated · sub-4 min self-service
