Business change and user adoption
Switching on the technology is not enough. When delivering a new tool, 80% of the focus needs to be around the people with only 20% on the technology.
We’ll work with you to maximise value from your investment with a structured approach to Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365) user adoption, derived from the intersection of technology, business strategy, and user goals.
Embed new technologies within your organisation.
Moving to Microsoft 365 presents a whole new way of working. With a structured process to change management, we’ll work with you to empower your users to adopt new ways of working, providing you with all the resources needed to embrace change.
1
Drive people change in your business.
With major technology change. ultimately, every person is going to be doing their job differently. The success of your project hinges on planning properly for this change. Utilising the ADKAR model, we’ll help you plan, articulate and deliver the reasons for change to your people – all of which are components of effective change.

Facilitate organisational change.
With the optimal combination of process, systems and solutions in place, an organisation will be well positioned to operate at a different level, but if users are not ready (or willing), then all that investment in process, systems and solutions will inevitably be underleveraged. That’s why we have a team of adoption and change specialists to help you successfully embed new technology in your organisation.

Deliver on your change management objectives.
We’ll work with you to define and deliver a Microsoft 365 change management strategy that delivers results both on the people side of change and at an organisational level. By leveraging these strategies, you will deliver on your organisational objectives.
