Tenant and identity
Tenant configuration, single sign-on and conditional access aligned with your identity platform.
Industry context
Collaboration and modern workplace in manufacturing
We roll out collaboration platforms so staff identity, meetings, chat and files sit in one governed tenant.
The work covers tenant set-up, identity and access, records retention and the move from existing tools. We plan migration in waves, set governance for teams and sharing, and train people before each wave.
Manufacturers plan around production schedules, maintenance shutdowns and suppliers in several countries, and their finance, commercial and people processes follow the same calendar. Plant, quality and business owners need changes timed so they do not disrupt month-end, production or audits. Three things often decide the design: hosting in UAE or Saudi cloud regions, calling through operators licensed under TDRA and CST rules, and records retention for government and regulated data.
After stabilisation we hand over to your teams or keep running the service with you.
Alongside sector regulation, we often map delivery evidence to cross-industry baselines such as the UAE Information Assurance Regulation issued by TDRA, the NCA Essential Cybersecurity Controls in Saudi Arabia and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, which many risk reviewers already use.
What the work covers
We design, deliver and stay until operation is stable, with evidence your procurement and risk teams can rely on.
Governance and retention
Rules for creating teams and sharing externally, with retention and eDiscovery settings for records.
Migration and adoption
Mail, files and chat moved in planned waves, with training and support for each group of staff.
Quality and audit records
We keep approvals, changes and reference data in a form your internal and external auditors can review.
Meetings and calling
Meeting rooms, calling plans and devices set up, with emergency calling and recording rules agreed.
External collaboration
Guest access and shared channels with partners, controlled by policy and reviewed regularly.
Signs you are ready to start
A collaboration rollout is ready to start when identity is in order and records management has set retention rules.
- The month-end, production peak and audit dates the programme must avoid have been agreed.
- IT and records management have agreed the retention rules and the external sharing policy.
- The groups of staff and the order of the migration waves have been agreed.
