Microsoft 365 strategy advisory, with a business case attached
TechRam's Microsoft 365 strategy advisory maps where your Microsoft estate actually is, what to fix first, and what the business case looks like for funding it. The output is a plan you own and can take to a board, not a deck we present and leave behind.
- 4–8 weeks
What we do
- Current-state assessment across systems, data and process
- Workflow discovery with the people doing the work
- A prioritised roadmap, sequenced by what unblocks the most
- The business case document, in your board's format
The problem it answers
You know something needs to change but don’t know where to start. The last strategy you paid for was a deck, and the deck is still a deck.
This absorbs the old Assessments page and the Business Case. Every recommendation is mapped to something we can actually build.
What this does for your AI
We name which of your processes are worth automating and which are worth deleting first.
Common questions
01. How is this different from a consultancy's strategy deck?
Every recommendation is mapped to something that can actually be built, and the document names what we wouldn't build as well. A deck with no delivery behind it is the thing this replaces.
02. Will you recommend your own services?
Where they fit, and we'll name the ones that don't. If the answer is that you need a platform we don't work on, the roadmap says so.
03. Can the strategy cover one department rather than the whole organisation?
Usually yes, and it's often the better way in. One department that works is a more persuasive business case internally than a plan covering all of them, and it gives us a real cost to scope the rest against.
04. What does a technology strategy cost?
Fixed scope, quoted in writing before work starts, and the number doesn't move because the work turned out harder than we expected. We don't publish a range, because the scope is what sets it and a range without a scope is a guess you would have to unlearn.
05. Do we need to buy anything new for a strategy engagement?
Almost never. We start with what is already in your Microsoft 365 licensing, and we don't resell licences or earn a margin on them. Where something genuinely isn't covered we'll say so before you commit, not after.
06. What happens when the strategy is finished?
You own it: the systems, the documentation, and the ability to maintain them without us. Run & Improve exists if you would rather we kept it current, and it's monthly with no lock-in.
