Solution
​
Simoda’s technical consultants worked extensively with the customers internal IT team. The project started with several discovery sessions to help understand the current environment and where the key application dependencies were, this also highlighted any current issues with workflow
automation.
As part of the Simoda standard project workflow process we provided the customer with a detailed working technical document, design, and implementation process that would be followed to achieve project delivery success.
A project manager worked with the customers internal team to understand user profiles so the correct Microsoft 365 license was purchased. The licenses were purchased through Simoda’s CSP portal, which enables the customer to access licensing information and procure licenses via a self-service framework.
Simoda also provide support on the environment to enable them to concentrate on delivery of key growth projects and not have to worry about their platform and the complex licensing environment.
Results / Outcomes

50% reduction for internal support

Happy global leadership team
