Microsoft SharePoint, designed by people who have read the permissions.
- 70+SharePoint tenants
- IADesigned, not assumed
- AuditPermission ready
- 24/7Coverage
Six workstreams that turn SharePoint from a Wiki into a platform.
Information architecture
Hub-and-spoke site design, content-type taxonomy, navigation patterns, search-tuned metadata. Output: a site map your team can actually find content in.
Permission design
Least-privilege defaults, group-based access, sharing-policy enforcement, OverShare prevention. Permissions that scale beyond the first 50 users.
Document management
Version control, retention policies, approval workflows, sensitivity labels, automated classification. Documents discoverable and protected.
Intranet and comms
Communication sites, news, events, custom branding. SharePoint Online intranet platform tuned for engagement, not just publishing.
Search and findability
Managed metadata, custom search verticals, refiners, promoted results, search analytics. The platform that makes the content actually usable.
Migrations
File-share to SharePoint, OneDrive consolidation, Teams-SharePoint alignment, third-party platform migrations (Box, Dropbox, Google Drive). Zero data loss across cutovers.
Three feature pillars across content, security, and connectivity.
Powerful Content Features
Document management, team collaboration, intranet portals, and Power Platform workflow automation. Configured with the metadata, content types, and templates that make search work.
- Version control, check-in/out, co-authoring
- Metadata, content types, and tagging schema
- Team and communication sites
- Approval, notification, and routing workflows
- Custom intranet branding and personalised homepages
Enterprise-Grade Security
The full Microsoft 365 security stack applied to SharePoint: Entra ID, conditional access, IRM, DLP, sensitivity labels, retention policies, and granular permission models that hold up under audit.
- Entra ID integration with conditional access
- Information Rights Management (IRM)
- Data loss prevention (DLP) policies
- Sensitivity labels and retention policies
- eDiscovery, legal hold, and audit logs
- Role-based and item-level permissions
Seamlessly Connected
Native integration with the rest of Microsoft 365, plus Graph API and Logic Apps for the legacy systems your business cannot move off. Mobile experience built in.
- Microsoft Teams, Outlook, OneDrive, Power Platform
- Graph API and REST APIs for custom integrations
- Azure Logic Apps for enterprise workflows
- CRM / ERP and legacy-system connectors
- Native iOS / Android apps with offline access
Four reasons clients pick us for the deployment.
70+ SharePoint tenants
Pattern recognition matters. We have designed IA across legal, finance, healthcare, education. Common failure modes, common scaling traps.
IA-first deployments
Information architecture designed before any sites are built. Hub-spoke topology, navigation taxonomy, metadata schema. The discipline that determines whether the platform survives growth.
Permission discipline
Least-privilege defaults from day one. Group-based access, sharing policies, OverShare prevention. Permissions that hold up under audit and Copilot.
Dubai-based engineers
Senior SharePoint engineers based in Dubai. Same team that designs IA also runs migrations and provides ongoing administration.

Why most clients move off file shares.
| Feature | On-prem file shares NTFS-based | SharePoint Online Cloud-native |
|---|---|---|
Search across content | Limited (Windows Search) | Native (full-text + metadata) |
Version control | Basic VSS or none | Built-in major/minor versioning |
Co-authoring | ||
Mobile access | VPN only | Native apps |
External collaboration | Manual VPN/share | Built-in B2B |
Retention and compliance | File-system level only | Policy-driven, label-aware |
Maintenance overhead | On-prem server fleet | Microsoft-managed |
What clients see after a properly architected SharePoint deployment.
Metadata + tuned search vs file-share fumbling.
Co-authoring and team sites replace email attachments.
Centralised sharing displaces attachment-heavy threads.
Single source of truth across teams.
Power Automate workflows over manual chasing.
Retention and DLP enforced, not optional.

“We had 12 years of files on a single shared drive that nobody could navigate. GR IT spent four weeks designing the information architecture properly (matter-based site collections, document types, retention rules) before migrating a single file. The migration finished early, search actually works, and our team can find documents from 2017 they previously gave up on.”
