Starting fresh
Build a well-architected Azure foundation around your organisation, your workloads and your team.
Azure Landing Zones
Give your teams
a better start in Azure
Give your teams a clear starting point in Azure. We bring identity, networking and governance together in a platform you can maintain and build on.
Build an Azure foundation that fits your environment
Start a new platform, improve the one you have or prepare for more workloads. We shape the work around your organisation and the people who run it.
Bringing order
Create consistency across an existing platform, with clear ownership, access and governance.
Preparing to scale
Make room for new workloads and teams without redesigning the foundation every time.
What’s included
What we build into your platform
We use the Azure Landing Zones reference architecture, shaped around the people and systems that will use it. The architecture, responsibilities and scope are agreed with you.
Foundation
Management groups, subscription structure, naming and tagging, with infrastructure as code at the core.
Governance
Azure Policy, role-based access controls and centrally applied guardrails across your subscriptions.
Connectivity
Network architecture, hybrid connectivity, central DNS and IP address management.
Workloads
A governed starting point for your apps, data and AI, ready for your teams to build on.
Platform operations
See how your platform is running
Build monitoring, security and cost visibility into the foundation.
Monitoring
Centralised logging and diagnostic policies give your team visibility into the platform.
Security
Security baselines and Microsoft Defender for Cloud help your team assess and strengthen your platform’s security posture.
Cost visibility
Budgets, alerts and guidance on applicable reservations and licensing benefits.
Subscription vending
Make it easy for your teams to get started in Azure
We build the foundation and automate subscription provisioning, so developers and project teams can start building with networking, access and governance already in place. Each new subscription follows your agreed standards, with clear ownership and budget alerts built in. Teams spend less time on setup and get a consistent starting point for each project. Your platform team can update those standards through version-controlled code as your needs change, keeping your organisation in control without making every request a manual task.
Working together
From first conversation to a platform you own.
We agree the design, scope and handover around your environment. You get the code, the documentation and the reasoning behind the decisions.
- 01
Discover
Understand your environment, priorities and constraints.
- 02
Design
Agree the architecture, responsibilities and scope together.
- 03
Build
Implement the platform and provisioning pipelines through infrastructure as code.
- 04
Handover
Walk your team through the code, documentation and architecture diagrams.
Handover
A platform your team can take forward
Infrastructure as code
Version-controlled Bicep and DevOps pipelines for maintaining the platform and provisioning landing zones.
Written documentation
Markdown documentation of the platform, its configuration and the agreed design.
Architecture diagrams
Platform overview, management group hierarchy, network topology, hybrid connections and DNS.
Scope shaped around your environment
We agree the deliverables, responsibilities and handover around your starting point. Network topology, firewall selection and optional security services are design decisions we make with you.
Third-party firewall configuration, on-premises changes, workload migration and ongoing operations are agreed separately from the platform delivery.
FAQ
Questions and answers
Can you work with an existing Azure environment?
Yes. We start by understanding the platform you already have, then agree a practical path to a more consistent foundation. The work is shaped around your starting point.
What will our team receive?
Version-controlled Bicep and DevOps pipelines, written platform documentation, and architecture diagrams covering the agreed design. Handover is part of the engagement.
Is workload migration included?
Workload migration, on-premises changes, third-party firewall configuration and ongoing operations are agreed separately from the platform delivery.
