Launching Copilot without governance policies is like handing out office keys with no lock on the door. Copilot Baseline Governance is a workshop-and-implementation service that sets up the minimum secure standard for managing Microsoft 365 Copilot within one month. You end up with a configured environment, documented policies, and a plan for safe scaling — no data leaks, no operational chaos.
Is This for You?
- You are preparing to deploy Copilot but don't know where to start with governance
- Copilot is already running but nobody set the rules — agents are created without oversight, data is widely accessible
- You worry about oversharing — employees may unintentionally expose sensitive information through AI
- No clear policies for licensing, access, or AI usage across the organisation
- Extra costs and confusion from improper use of AI services
What You Get
- Educational and design workshops — governance principles tailored to your organisation, built together
- Configured M365/Copilot environment — admin settings deployed within the agreed baseline scope
- Documented Copilot management policies — clear rules for employees, managers, and IT
- Technical recommendations per checklist — licensing, permissions, agents, data access, adoption monitoring
- Next-steps list — what to close in the backlog so governance keeps pace with AI growth
How It Works
- Inspiration workshops — agree on objectives, risks, constraints, and Copilot management options
- Decision workshops — define licensing rules, access levels, agent policies, LLM providers
- M365/Copilot configuration — deploy agreed admin settings
- Documentation — write down policies and operational standards
- Adoption and monitoring plan — set up reports, metrics, and optimisation steps

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this enough to safely launch Copilot? Yes — the service covers the minimum secure baseline. If the organisation needs advanced governance (e.g. DLP, data classification), that is a separate phase.
How large does the organisation need to be? The service is designed for companies with 100 to 1,000 employees. Smaller or larger organisations — get in touch and we will adjust the scope.
What if we already have Copilot but no governance? We start with a review of your current state. We identify gaps, agree on the baseline, and deploy the missing elements.
Will we have governance sorted for years after this? No — governance is an ongoing process. We deliver a solid starting point and a plan for next steps. We can support further phases.
Hard Numbers
