Microsoft 365 target tenant governance before migration
Before moving users and content, the destination Microsoft 365 tenant needed stronger identity, collaboration, sharing, and governance controls.
The challenge
The organization was preparing for a Microsoft 365 migration, but the target tenant settings were not ready for external sharing, Teams creation, retention, data protection, or post-migration administration.
Our approach
- ✓Reviewed tenant settings, Entra ID roles, Conditional Access posture, sharing defaults, audit logging, retention, and collaboration policies.
- ✓Defined target-state recommendations for SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams, and Power Platform governance.
- ✓Created an admin-facing remediation backlog with priority, owner, risk, and migration dependency notes.
- ✓Documented post-migration operating practices for owners, admins, and support teams.
Outcomes
- ✓The target environment had clearer administrative guardrails before production users moved in.
- ✓Migration workstreams had a shared governance baseline for access, sharing, Teams, and lifecycle decisions.
- ✓The support team received practical documentation for day-two operations.
