Cloud and Platform Builds

Modern infrastructure for organizations ready to leave legacy behind.

We move SMBs and federal agencies off legacy on-premise systems and manual processes onto modern cloud platforms and purpose-built applications. We start with process redesign, then build on the right platform for your situation: Azure, Power Platform, AWS, or GCP.

Our Approach

Strategy first. Build second.

We don't start by picking a platform. We start by understanding how your organization works, where the friction is, and what the right future state looks like. Platform selection comes after that.

01

Process Redesign and Strategy

Platform-agnostic. We map your current state, identify bottlenecks, waste, and risk, and design a future operating model that actually fits how your team works. No technology bias, just honest process improvement.

  • Current-state process mapping and gap analysis
  • Stakeholder interviews and workflow documentation
  • Future-state design and change impact assessment
  • Platform selection and technology roadmap
  • Change management and adoption planning
02

Cloud Build on the Right Platform

We build on Azure, Power Platform, AWS, or GCP depending on your existing infrastructure, compliance requirements, and budget. Most SMBs and federal clients land on Microsoft, but we match the platform to your situation.

  • Cloud architecture design and infrastructure build
  • Custom Power Apps replacing manual processes
  • Power Automate workflows and approvals
  • Data migration from legacy systems
  • Integration with existing tools and third-party services
What We Replace

The legacy problems we solve every day.

📋

Spreadsheet Dependency

Critical business data locked in Excel files: siloed, error-prone, and impossible to report on in real time.

Excel chaosPower Apps + SharePoint
📠

Paper and Manual Approvals

Approvals that travel by email, forms that get printed and scanned, and reporting that takes a full day to compile each month.

Manual workflowsPower Automate flows
🗄️

Legacy On-Premise Systems

Old systems that can't integrate with anything modern, require expensive maintenance, and prevent remote or mobile access.

On-premise serversAzure or AWS cloud
🗂️

Disconnected File Storage

Documents scattered across local drives and email attachments with no version control, access management, or search.

Scattered filesSharePoint or Drive
🔌

Siloed Systems

Data entry duplicated across multiple platforms. No single view of the customer, project, or budget. Every report needs manual reconciliation.

Reporting Blind Spots

Leadership making decisions on last month's numbers, or no numbers at all. No dashboards, no KPIs, no early warning system.

What We Build

Six capabilities across the major cloud platforms.

Power Platform Apps

Our strongest and most-used capability. Custom Power Apps replacing manual forms, spreadsheets, and paper processes. Power Automate flows that handle approvals and data movement automatically, with no manual intervention required.

  • Canvas and model-driven apps
  • Approval and notification flows
  • Power Pages for external portals
  • Dataverse data modeling

Azure Cloud Migration

Lift-and-shift or redesign-and-migrate of legacy on-premise workloads to Azure. Architecture planning, data migration, security configuration, and staff transition.

  • VM and server migration
  • Azure SQL and storage setup
  • Hybrid connectivity and VPN
  • Cost management and optimization

AWS Migrations and Builds

For organizations already in the AWS ecosystem or where AWS is the right fit. EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, and serverless workloads. Previously AWS Solutions Architect certified.

  • EC2 and ECS workload migration
  • S3 storage and lifecycle policies
  • RDS database setup and migration
  • Lambda and serverless functions

Google Cloud Platform

GCP builds for organizations in the Google ecosystem. Compute Engine, Cloud Storage, BigQuery analytics, and Cloud Run for containerized workloads.

  • Compute Engine and GKE
  • BigQuery data warehouse setup
  • Cloud Storage and lifecycle
  • Cloud Run and App Engine

Data Modelling and Migration

Designing the underlying data architecture that supports your new cloud environment. Star schema, entity relationships, and clean migration from legacy databases.

  • Data model design and documentation
  • Legacy database extraction and cleansing
  • ETL pipeline setup
  • Data validation and reconciliation

Change Management and Training

The human side of the build. We plan stakeholder communication, manage resistance, run training sessions, and make sure adoption actually happens, not just deployment.

  • Stakeholder communication planning
  • Role-based training sessions
  • Documentation and runbooks
  • Adoption metrics and follow-up
Our Process

Four phases from assessment to go-live.

The same structured approach applies regardless of which cloud platform we end up building on. Platform selection happens at the end of phase two, not the beginning of phase one.

01

Assess and Map

Document current processes, infrastructure, and data flows. Identify friction, risk, and opportunity. Size the effort.

Weeks 1 to 2
02

Design and Select

Future-state process design, cloud architecture, platform selection, and roadmap. Stakeholder sign-off before any build begins.

Weeks 3 to 4
03

Build and Migrate

Cloud setup, application builds, data migration, and integrations. Iterative delivery with review checkpoints throughout.

Ongoing
04

Train and Adopt

Hands-on training, documentation, and managed go-live. We stay through adoption to ensure the change sticks.

Go-live
Is This You?

Six signs your organization needs this.

😩

"We spend more time maintaining our systems than using them."

📧

"We run approvals through email and things fall through the cracks every week."

💾

"Our servers are on-premise and IT is terrified of what happens if one fails."

📉

"Monthly reporting takes two days and is already out of date when it's done."

🤷

"We have no single view of a customer, project, or budget without pulling from three systems."

🚧

"We can't onboard new staff quickly because nothing is documented or standardized."
