Rolling out Microsoft 365 Copilot

For organisations on Microsoft 365 that want to roll out Copilot without unintentionally exposing confidential data.

Updated: 2026-11

In short

We support the rollout of Microsoft 365 Copilot from preparation to the decision on broad use: cleanup of critical sharing, data classification and data loss rules with your IT, a usage policy, a pilot group with clear use cases, training and an evaluation of the benefit.

Copilot accesses all content a user may see. In grown environments that is often more than anyone realises: folders with HR data, client documents or strategy papers accidentally shared widely.

At the same time many rollouts fail not on security but on benefit: licences are bought but hardly used without use cases and training.

What you get

Assessment

Sharing, owners and confidential repositories with risks for a Copilot rollout.

Cleanup plan

Prioritised measures for sharing, classification and data loss prevention, implemented with your IT.

Usage policy

What Copilot is used for, which data is off-limits and where outputs are checked.

Pilot with measurement

Pilot group, use cases and metrics, with evaluation before and after rollout.

Training

Training on prompts, checking outputs and the policy, documented for AI literacy.

How it runs

  1. 01

    Assess

    Analyse the environment and prioritise risks.

  2. 02

    Clean up

    Correct critical sharing, introduce classification.

  3. 03

    Pilot

    Train the pilot group, implement use cases, measure benefit.

  4. 04

    Decide

    Evaluation and recommendation on broad rollout.

Price framing

Effort depends on the state of the environment and the size of the pilot group. Licences are not included; technical configuration is done with your IT or provider.

Indicative, not a binding quote — the frame is confirmed during scoping.

FAQ

Do you sell Copilot licences?

No. We support preparation, rollout and measurement; you obtain licences through your existing channel.

Does the environment need to be perfectly tidy?

No. Confidential repositories matter most. The pilot can start with non-critical data in parallel with cleanup.

How is the benefit measured?

With a few clear use cases, comparing time and quality before and after rollout.

Is data protection included?

Yes. Use cases involving personal data are reviewed with your data protection leads.
