Make more of your Microsoft environment. WestTech helps you plan licensing, strengthen identity and device controls, deploy collaboration services and connect cloud infrastructure to business reporting.

Conditional Access
Device management
Endpoint & email protectionMicrosoft 365 Business Premium provides productivity, identity and security capabilities for your people. Azure provides cloud infrastructure and services for applications, data and connected operations. WestTech helps you decide what you need and configure the pieces to work together.
Conditional Access uses Microsoft Entra ID P1 to apply access rules. For example, require multi-factor authentication or an enrolled, compliant device before a user opens selected business applications. We plan exceptions, emergency access and a staged rollout to avoid locking out your team.
Business benefit: clearer access rules for office, remote and mobile working.
Intune Plan 1 helps configure supported devices, deploy policies and applications, and check compliance. We define enrolment and ownership rules, manage joiners and leavers, and agree how lost-device actions should work.
Business benefit: more consistent setups and less reliance on manual device administration.
Defender for Business provides endpoint protection and detection capabilities for supported devices. We configure the protection, investigate alerts within the agreed scope and connect incidents to a response process.
Business benefit: stronger visibility and a defined route to act when suspicious activity appears.
Defender for Office 365 Plan 1 adds protections such as Safe Links and Safe Attachments for supported workloads. We combine email policies with domain authentication, user awareness and a way to report suspicious messages.
Business benefit: layered protection around the communications your business depends on.
| What Azure can do | When it may help |
|---|---|
| Host applications, virtual machines and data services | Replace selected ageing systems, support an application rollout or provide capacity without buying every server upfront. |
| Connect offices, users and cloud workloads | Build secure connectivity and a hybrid design where some systems remain onsite. |
| Support backup, recovery and service resilience | Design recovery resources and protection for supported workloads, with agreed recovery targets and tests. |
| Manage usage, access and costs | Set ownership, budgets, monitoring and resource policies so growth stays visible and controlled. |
Entra ID, formerly Azure Active Directory, is the identity platform connecting Microsoft 365 and many cloud applications. Its inclusion in Business Premium does not include free Azure servers, storage or all Azure security services. Azure consumption, additional security capabilities and Copilot licences are separately scoped. Business Premium supports up to 300 users; we assess enterprise licensing when the organisation needs a different plan.
Microsoft 365 brings people and information together through email, documents, meetings and shared workspaces. The right configuration also needs to control who can sign in, which devices can connect and how information is shared.
Business Premium combines productivity with additional identity, device and security capabilities. We review your organisation, existing licences and requirements before recommending the right plan.
Business Premium is designed for up to 300 users. For larger organisations or more advanced requirements, we assess the relevant enterprise plans and add-ons.
Owning the licence is the starting point. We help design, deploy and manage the controls your organisation needs.
| Capability | What it enables | How WestTech can help |
|---|---|---|
| Microsoft 365 apps & collaboration | Supported Office apps and business collaboration services | Tenant setup, migration, user adoption and administration. |
| Microsoft Entra ID P1 | Identity management and Conditional Access | Define sign-in rules, MFA requirements and access conditions. |
| Microsoft Intune Plan 1 | Device and application management | Enrol supported devices, apply configuration and manage compliance. |
| Microsoft Defender for Business | Endpoint protection for eligible organisations | Onboard supported devices and configure protection and investigation workflows. |
| Defender for Office 365 Plan 1 | Additional email and collaboration protection | Configure policies and review suspicious-link, attachment and phishing protection. |
| Information protection & DLP capabilities | Supported classification and information-protection controls | Assess data handling requirements and configure the licensed capabilities. |
We design policies around real working patterns, test them with a controlled rollout and plan emergency access. A device marked compliant in Intune can inform an Entra Conditional Access decision. Supported applications and protected users need the appropriate licences.
Risk-based identity features can need Entra ID P2 or additional entitlements; they should not be assumed to be included with baseline Business Premium.
Scope virtual machines, storage, networking and secure connectivity around your workloads. Azure resource consumption is billed separately from Microsoft 365 licences.
Entra ID can support access to Microsoft 365, Azure management and connected applications. Azure resource permissions still need appropriate roles and governance.
Plan device management, remote access and application delivery around office, remote and site-based teams.
Review administrative roles, resource organisation, cost visibility and changes so cloud use remains controlled.
Define recovery needs for Microsoft 365 data and Azure workloads. Product retention and independent backup are different parts of the plan.
Help people work effectively with Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive, while improving sharing and access practices.
Bring agreed sources into dashboards for management reporting: project pipeline, tender status, service activity or commercial performance. We scope data access, modelling, refresh and sharing around the business question.
Power BI sharing and collaboration need the appropriate user licences or capacity arrangements. Business Premium does not automatically grant Power BI Pro.
Copilot in Power BI has its own Fabric or Premium capacity and configuration requirements. A Microsoft 365 Copilot licence or Power BI Pro licence alone does not satisfy them.
No. Azure virtual machines, storage and other consumption-based resources are separate from the Microsoft 365 subscription. We identify the relevant licensing and resource costs in the proposal.
Yes. We can scope policy design, testing and deployment around your users, applications and devices, with appropriate licensing and emergency-access planning.
Copilot Chat and paid Microsoft 365 Copilot experiences have different capabilities and entitlements. We review the intended workflow and eligible licences before recommending a rollout.
