Microsoft migration consulting
Microsoft migrations planned around the systems people actually use
Horton Scientific helps organizations move content, collaboration, identity, mail, forms, and workflows into a Microsoft environment that is ready to operate after cutover.
What the engagement can cover
Technical work tied to the migration plan
- Microsoft 365 tenant-to-tenant migrations for mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, and consolidation
- SharePoint Server, file share, Box, Dropbox, OneDrive, Teams, and document library migrations
- Exchange Online, mail routing, coexistence, domain, and identity cutover planning
- InfoPath, Nintex, SharePoint Designer, and legacy workflow modernization
- Target tenant security, sharing, compliance, retention, and lifecycle preparation
- PowerShell, Microsoft Graph, and Azure automation for discovery, remediation, and validation
Engagement options
Start with the part of the migration that needs ownership
Horton Scientific can lead the full migration or take responsibility for a difficult workstream inside a larger program.
Deliver
Migration program or workstream
Own planning and execution for Microsoft 365, SharePoint, mail, collaboration, identity, or modernization work.
Recover
Migration remediation
Resolve permission, ownership, workflow, identity, routing, performance, and validation issues that are blocking progress.
Stabilize
Post-cutover support
Work through the issue backlog, confirm access and business processes, refine governance, and transfer operating knowledge.
Assess
Inventory workloads, content, identities, permissions, integrations, customizations, owners, and business-critical paths.
Design
Define source-to-target mappings, target architecture, security controls, governance, migration waves, and acceptance criteria.
Remediate
Address unsupported customizations, ownership gaps, stale access, naming conflicts, workflow dependencies, and other blockers.
Pilot
Move a representative scope, validate the user experience, test support procedures, and refine the runbook.
Cut over
Execute approved waves with go or no-go gates, validation owners, issue tracking, communications, and escalation paths.
Stabilize

Frequently asked questions
Can Horton Scientific lead only one part of a larger migration?
Yes. We can own discovery, target design, a specific workload, remediation, cutover planning, validation, or post-migration stabilization while working with your internal team and other partners.
Do you work with migration products such as ShareGate or AvePoint?
Yes. Tool selection depends on the source, destination, workload, licensing, scale, and validation requirements. We also use native Microsoft tooling, PowerShell, Microsoft Graph, and Azure automation where they fit.
How do you reduce cutover risk?
We define acceptance criteria early, test representative scenarios, assign validation owners, document rollback and escalation paths, and use pilot evidence to refine the production runbook.
