We map the work to your home-market rules and to the GCC regulations that apply where the systems will run, and prepare the evidence in a form your compliance team can file.
Boston Solutions
Best Collaboration and modern workplace company in Boston
Email, meetings, files and chat with information protection and migrations that keep every record. Hosn Al Tomoh works with organisations in Boston on workplace platforms, agreeing scope, responsibilities and proof of completion for each phase from the start.
Workplace platforms such as Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace carry email, meetings, files and chat for the whole organisation. The work covers identity, information protection, retention, and moving mailboxes and file shares without losing records.
We work with clients across the Middle East and beyond. For organisations in Boston, that usually means a programme with a Gulf footprint: we plan for your home-market data protection rules and for the GCC laws, such as the UAE and Saudi personal data protection laws, that apply where systems and data will sit.
Before go-live, we run a full rehearsal of the cutover with the team who will operate the service, and agree in advance how problems will be escalated in the first weeks after launch.
Ask us for examples of what you will receive: plans, test evidence and handover packs. Judge the proposal on those, not on slides.
Where the effort goes
We concentrate on the points below, because that is where the work usually stumbles.
- Sensitivity labels and sharing rules that match your data classification.
- Retention and legal hold settings agreed with records management.
- Migration waves planned around the business calendar, with support on day one.
Where programmes go wrong
Most issues come from sharing that is too open or migrations that drop permissions. We review external sharing and file permissions before migration and test them again after each wave.
We record decisions, responsibilities and test results as we go, so internal audit and regulators can trace every decision and who approved it.
