New guide: assessing organisational readiness for Microsoft 365 Copilot. Read the guide

Microsoft solutions consultancy

Transform your organisation with Microsoft cloud, AI and business applications

Avanteria helps organisations plan, implement, govern, adopt and continuously improve solutions across Microsoft 365 and Copilot, Dynamics 365, Power Platform, Azure and Microsoft Fabric, starting from the business process rather than the product.

How we work

  • Fixed-length discovery with a written output you can use either way
  • Effort estimated as ranges, with assumptions stated
  • Configuration preferred over code wherever it holds
  • Governance and accessibility designed in, not retrofitted
How the Microsoft platform fits together in practice
Business outcome Process, decision or obligation

Signals Process events, documents, records and telemetry

Ground Permissions, data model and curated knowledge

Reason Rules, analytics and grounded AI with review points

Act Automated steps, assisted decisions and audit trail

Business outcomes

What organisations actually ask us to change

Technology is the means. These are the outcomes that justify the investment, and the ones we design and measure against.

Improve employee productivity

Remove the repetitive research, drafting and status-chasing that consumes professional hours, using grounded AI and automation applied to specific tasks.

Modernise customer engagement

Give sales and service teams a process that matches how they actually work, with the customer data quality that makes it dependable.

Automate complex processes

Replace email and spreadsheet approvals and handoffs with governed workflows that record who decided what, and when.

Create governed low-code solutions

Let teams build what they need within a platform model that keeps ownership, data boundaries and lifecycle under control.

Strengthen data-driven decisions

Agree definitions once, publish them with owners and lineage, and stop management meetings that begin by reconciling figures.

Improve cloud security and resilience

Tighten identity, reduce alert noise, and design recovery you have tested rather than recovery you have documented.

Solution families

Five families, fifty capabilities, one delivery model

Each family has an overview, individual capability pages, the business outcomes it targets and the industries where we most often apply it.

Consulting lifecycle

From first workshop to continuous improvement

Nine stages, each with a defined output. Engagements can start at any stage, but no stage is skipped silently.

  1. Discover

    Understand the business process, the constraints and the outcome being sought, with the people who own them.

  2. Assess

    Establish the current technical and data reality: platform state, integrations, permissions, content condition and readiness.

  3. Design

    Produce the solution architecture, functional design, data and integration model and security approach, with decisions recorded.

  4. Build

    Implement in reviewable increments, favouring configuration and keeping the solution deployable from day one.

  5. Validate

    Functional, integration, accessibility, security and performance testing, with user acceptance run against real scenarios.

  6. Deploy

    Release through a controlled path with rehearsed cutover, rollback plan and defined hypercare.

  7. Adopt

    Support the behaviour change the solution depends on: enablement, champions, communications and reinforcement.

  8. Operate

    Run the solution against agreed service expectations, with monitoring, incident handling and administration.

  9. Improve

    Maintain a funded backlog informed by usage, feedback and platform change, released on a regular cadence.

Solution scenarios

Ten problems we are asked to solve most often

Each scenario describes a business problem, the approach we take and the Microsoft technologies involved.

All ten scenarios

Industries

Sector context changes the design, not just the vocabulary

Regulatory obligations, data sensitivity and operating rhythm all shape what a good solution looks like. These are the sectors we work in most.

All industries

Delivery and governance

Evidence at every gate, not assurances at the end

Governance is often the difference between a solution that survives its second year and one that quietly stops being maintained. We design it alongside delivery rather than adding it after an incident.

How we deliver

Business-first discovery

Short, fixed-length discovery that answers the decision at hand and then stops.

Solution architecture

A named architect owns the technical shape, and the decisions are recorded.

Security by design

Identity, permissions and data protection designed up front and reviewed before release.

Governance

Environment strategy, policy, ownership and lifecycle designed alongside enablement.

Quality assurance

Functional, integration, accessibility, security and performance evidence at each gate.

Adoption

Change planned from design, targeted at behaviours, measured by what people do.

Continuous improvement

A funded backlog, a named product owner and a regular release cadence after launch.

Customer story

Consolidating departmental case handling for a public body

Several departmental case processes consolidated onto one Dataverse case model with a citizen-facing portal and defensible records handling.

  • Dynamics 365 Customer Service
  • Dataverse
  • Power Pages
  • Power Automate

Read the story

One case record across departments

Leadership reporting is produced from a single model rather than assembled from departmental extracts.

Status visible to citizens

Requests can be tracked through the portal, reducing status-chasing contact.

Evidenced records handling

Retention and disclosure are applied by policy and can be demonstrated on request.

Maintainable by the internal team

Configuration-first delivery keeps ongoing change within the internal team capability.

Insights

Analysis from the work, not from the marketing calendar

Practical writing on the decisions that determine whether Microsoft platform programmes succeed.

About Avanteria

Specialised on purpose

We work within one platform family because depth is what makes advice credible. Our architects have seen how these products behave under real constraints: permission models nobody reviewed, data that does not match its documentation, integrations built for a system since replaced. That experience is what makes an estimate defensible and a design durable.

More about how we work

  • Advisory, design, delivery, assurance, adoption and managed services in one team
  • Configuration first, with custom development where the requirement genuinely demands it
  • Decisions recorded so the solution can be owned after we leave
  • Office in Byblos, Lebanon, with additional countries coming soon

Start the conversation

Tell us the problem, not the product

Most useful engagements start with a short conversation about the process or decision that needs to change. We will tell you what we think it takes, including when the answer is that you do not need us yet.
