Packaged implementation
Microsoft 365 Productivity Starter Pack
A practical Microsoft 365 setup that improves the way your business works.
Microsoft 365 comes with strong tools for collaboration and document management, but most small businesses use a fraction of them. We configure your environment properly so your team works better from day one.
Who it is for
Built for businesses that want Microsoft 365 working properly
We work with you to understand how your business operates, then set Microsoft 365 up to support the way your people actually work.
Growing small businesses
You have the licences, but files, tasks and conversations are scattered everywhere.
Teams moving off network drives
Replace old shared drives with modern document management your people will actually like.
Businesses preparing for Copilot
A tidy, well-governed Microsoft 365 is the foundation AI tools need to work well.
What is included
A proper setup, not just switched-on software
Scope depends on your needs, but the starter pack can include all of this.
Productivity assessment
We look at how your business works today and where Microsoft 365 can lift it.
Teams and SharePoint setup
Configured around your structure, so files and conversations have a proper home.
OneDrive, Lists, Planner and Forms
The everyday tools set up and connected, ready for your team to use.
Automation recommendations
Where Power Automate and Power Apps could remove manual steps, mapped out for later.
Governance and security basics
Entra ID best practices plus sensible sharing, access and security settings.
User guidance and handover
Knowledge transfer so your team knows how everything works, and why.
How it works
How the starter pack runs
A staged setup that fits around your business, with your team involved at the points that matter.
Understand your business
We learn how your people work before we touch any settings.
Design the setup
A simple structure for teams, sites and libraries that matches how you operate.
Configure the environment
We set up Teams, SharePoint and the everyday tools to match the design.
Hand over with guidance
Your team gets clear guidance on the new ways of working, plus recommendations for next steps.
The result: a digital workplace that scales with you, and a clean foundation for automation and Copilot.
Customer Spotlight
How we did this for a medical technology company
A medical technology company had disconnected tools, limited collaboration and no central governance. We implemented Microsoft 365 end to end: Exchange Online, Teams and SharePoint, content moved across from Google Workspace, a modern intranet, plus clear rules and training.
The outcome
One connected workplace
Email and files moved across safely
A modern intranet for staff
Stronger security and governance
Safe by design
AI is only useful if you can trust it. We build automation and agents you can stand behind in an internal review or in front of a regulator. We design for Australian data and privacy expectations, which matters most in government, health, education and financial services. Your data is never used to train public models.
Controls we build in
- Identity controls
- Least-privilege access
- Clear data-handling rules
- Audit logs
- Human handoffs
Other examples of our work
What good looks like
Performing Arts Company
SharePoint
Production and operational files lived on shared drives with little structure.
We moved the client to SharePoint Online with clear libraries, branding and automated setup for each production.
Outcomes
- Files organised by production
- Role-based access for security
- Less manual file handling
Cement Manufacturer
SharePoint
The client needed a modern, secure place to work and share documents.
We set up a SharePoint environment with an intranet, people directory and document libraries.
Outcomes
- 8 team sites set up
- 2 TB moved across
- A modern, secure intranet
Chemical Manufacturer
Microsoft 365
Microsoft Teams and SharePoint Online had been enabled but the team was not using them, and there was no governance around either.
We reviewed the setup, designed a best practice approach and set a phased roadmap for adoption.
Outcomes
- 500+ orphan documents found
- Idle Teams cleaned up
- A clear path to adoption
Industry Ombudsman
Records365 + SharePoint
The client had no electronic records system, and the existing document platform could not co-author, control versions or search well across 93,000 documents.
We implemented Records365 over SharePoint Online and built a modern intranet alongside it.
Outcomes
- 93,000 documents under control
- Co-authoring at last
- A modern intranet
Retirement Living Operator: Communications Hub
SharePoint
The intranet no longer supported how teams worked, so collaboration and productivity suffered across the organisation.
We designed and built a new Communications Hub on SharePoint Online, branded and secured for the way they work.
Outcomes
- Policies in one place
- Contacts that stay current
- A foundation to build on
ECH: Making Employee Recognition Easier with Power Platform
Power Platform
Running the staff awards by hand took real coordination, and the process was hard to see into.
We built the ME Awards on the Power Platform, with nominations, voting and results in one connected experience.
Outcomes
- Less manual administration
- A simpler employee experience
- Greater transparency
Insurance Provider
SharePoint + Power Platform
An unsupported SharePoint 2010 setup was a security risk and held back HR and Payroll.
We moved this insurance provider to SharePoint Online and rebuilt the key forms and approvals in Power Platform.
Outcomes
- Payback in six months, not two years
- Sensitive HR data better protected
- One setup for staff worldwide
Technology Consultancy
Dynamics 365
This fast-growing startup needed a secure workspace and a reliable way to manage sales.
We set up Dynamics 365 for the pipeline and SharePoint for documents, linked together.
Outcomes
- Sales pipeline in one place
- Documents linked to deals
- A secure base to grow
ECH: Making Policy Answers Easier to Find and Trust
Copilot Studio
ECH had an AI agent for policies and forms, but answers were slow, long and inconsistent.
We optimised the Copilot Studio agent and the SharePoint knowledge behind it, and added multilingual support.
Outcomes
- Faster access to trusted information
- Clearer, consistent answers
- More inclusive access
Junior Adventures Group: Incident Management App
Power Apps
Incidents have to be logged and managed in line with duty of care across every branch. The legacy tool covered 10,000 children across 500 branches and could not stretch to the group's full footprint.
We rebuilt the app on Power Apps and SharePoint Online, automated the reporting and approvals with Power Automate, and designed it for staff who need it to work first time.
Outcomes
- Available wherever staff are
- Reports in one click
- Built to scale
Common questions about the starter pack
What is the Microsoft 365 Productivity Starter Pack?
It is a packaged Microsoft 365 setup that improves the way your business works: the environment configured properly, the basics in place, and your people shown how to use it.
We already have Microsoft 365. Why do we need this?
Licences alone do not change the way people work. The starter pack sets the tools up around your business so the value actually lands.
How disruptive is it for our team?
Very little. We configure and test alongside your current setup, and involve your team at the points that matter.
Does it prepare us for Copilot?
Yes. Copilot works best on a tidy, well-governed Microsoft 365 environment, which is exactly what the starter pack builds.
What happens after the setup?
You get user guidance, knowledge transfer and clear recommendations for next steps, from automation to training.
Who is it for?
Businesses that have Microsoft 365 but never had it set up deliberately. If your files are still on a server, or Teams grew without a plan, this is the tidy-up.
How long does it take?
It is scoped as a fixed piece of work rather than an open project, so you know what you are getting before it starts. We confirm the timing when we scope it against your environment.
What is not included?
Anything that needs discovery first, such as a large migration or a records project. If we find one of those we tell you, rather than quietly widening the job.
Ready when you are
Build a Microsoft 365 environment that earns its keep.
Start with a discovery session. We will look at how your business works and map the setup that fits.
What to expect
- A setup designed around your business
- Governance and security from day one
- Guidance your team can follow
- A clear path to automation and Copilot
