1.Client Overview

The Global Investment and E-Commerce Group (confidential client) has been active since 2013 and is part of an international financial organization. The company focuses on investments in modern technologies, e-commerce, digital services, and innovative startups. Its core expertise lies in supporting business growth across online commerce, fintech, media, and the digital economy. The group operates in over 30 countries, helping portfolio companies expand internationally and embrace secure, modern digital infrastructure.

  • Number of employees: Approx. 400

  • Geographic scope: Global (30+ countries)

  • Motto:

    “Everyone directs their own life; for security and peace of mind, they have us.”

2. Business Challenge

The client needed to consolidate multiple fragmented cloud environments following a merger, specifically migrating its Office 365 tenant from Mall.cz to Rockaway. Prior to the project, company data, emails, and tools were spread across several platforms, making management complex and inconsistent. Disjointed technologies increased the risk of data loss, security gaps, and collaboration inefficiencies across international teams. The lack of unified identity and permissions management also heightened operational risk and made IT administration costly and error-prone.

3. Objectives

  • Unify cloud services into a single Microsoft 365 environment.

  • Migrate key workloads

    — Exchange Online (EXO), SharePoint Online (SPO), OneDrive for Business (OD4B), and Microsoft Teams.

  • Ensure secure and seamless user identity and permissions alignment.

  • Reduce operational risk, costs, and administrative overhead.

  • Strengthen collaboration across all global offices.

4. Solution Delivered

KPCS Consulting executed a comprehensive Office 365 tenant-to-tenant migration that unified email, document management, and collaboration tools into a single, secure environment. The project included Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, OneDrive for Business, and Microsoft Teams, with full identity synchronization and permission alignment. The migration was carefully planned to minimize downtime, with major steps performed outside of business hours to ensure continuity and user comfort.

The implementation utilized advanced, proven migration tools — including Metalogix Essentials and CloudMigrator365 — to securely transfer large data volumes while maintaining integrity and minimizing disruption. KPCS worked closely with the internal IT team to tailor the approach to the client’s specific operational and compliance needs. Comprehensive documentation, training materials, and post-migration support were provided to ensure a smooth transition and user adoption.
