IS .NET RIGHT FOR YOU

Where Microsoft Copilot Is the Right Choice, and Where It Isn't

Microsoft Copilot consulting is the advisory and engineering work that gets Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Studio agents producing value in your tenant. It covers license planning, permission cleanup, security controls, custom agents and integration with non-Microsoft systems. It also covers the training and usage tracking that turn a rollout into adoption.

Choose .NET when

✓  Your people already work in Microsoft 365. If the day runs through Outlook, Teams, Word and SharePoint, Copilot shows up where work already happens. Adoption comes from habits nobody has to change.

✓  Your files live in SharePoint and OneDrive, and you can fix the permissions. Copilot answers from what each user can already open. Tighten sharing and label sensitive content in Purview, and it becomes a safe search-and-draft layer over your own files. It then runs inside your cybersecurity and compliance controls.

✓  You need agents without building an AI platform. Copilot Studio lets you ship agents for HR, IT or sales questions on identity and security you already run in Entra ID and Purview. That is platform work you get to skip.

✓  Your security team already trusts the Microsoft stack. Copilot works inside your Microsoft 365 tenant with Enterprise Data Protection, so it inherits compliance terms you have already reviewed. Approval is usually faster than for a new AI vendor.

Where we'd tell you not to

> Most of your knowledge sits outside Microsoft 365. If the answers live in Salesforce, Confluence, a data warehouse and custom apps, connectors help but have limits. A custom retrieval application built as part of your enterprise AI solutions may serve you better.

> Your permissions are a mess and nobody owns the cleanup. Copilot will surface every file a user can technically open, including the salary sheet shared with everyone years ago. Until someone owns SharePoint governance, start with Copilot Chat, which works from the web and files users upload, not your whole tenant.

> You're building an AI feature for customers, not employees. Copilot is designed for people inside Microsoft 365. A feature inside your own product, with your UX and cost model, is usually better as a custom build through agentic AI framework integration.

WHAT WE BUILD

Our Microsoft Copilot Consulting Services

Six kinds of Copilot work enterprise teams bring us, each with the Microsoft tooling we'd actually use.

Copilot Readiness and License Planning

We audit your tenant before you buy seats: who shares what, which sites are overshared, and which roles will use Copilot every day. You get a license plan by persona, not a blanket rollout that leaves half the seats idle.

Microsoft 365 admin center, SharePoint Advanced Management, Microsoft Purview, Microsoft Entra ID

Microsoft Copilot Integration

We connect Copilot to the systems outside Microsoft 365 that hold your answers, such as ServiceNow, Salesforce, Jira or a custom database. Copilot connectors index that content with its permissions, so people can ask across sources in one place.

Copilot connectors, Microsoft Graph API, Power Automate, Azure Functions

Copilot Studio Agent Development

We build agents for the questions your help desks answer every day in HR, IT, finance or sales. Each agent gets its own knowledge sources, actions and escalation path. We test it against real questions before anyone outside the pilot sees it.

Copilot Studio, Power Automate, Dataverse, Adaptive Cards, Microsoft Teams

Security, Governance and Oversharing Fixes

We find overshared SharePoint sites, apply sensitivity labels and DLP policies, and turn on Restricted Content Discovery where it is needed. Governance becomes a working control, not a PDF, with alerts when sharing patterns or agents break policy.

Adoption, Training and Ongoing Support

Adoption is where most Copilot budgets leak. We run role-based training with prompts from your own workflows, name champions in each team, and track active use in Copilot Analytics. After go-live, application support keeps agents and policies current.

Custom AI Beyond Copilot

When a use case outgrows Copilot, we extend it with Azure OpenAI and custom retrieval, or build a standalone agent people call from Teams. It ties back to your generative AI consulting roadmap, so the two efforts don't compete.

ENGAGEMENT & COST

How You Engage Us, and What Drives the Cost

Three commercial shapes, and an honest account of what moves the number. You shouldn't have to fill in a form to learn how a partner charges.
WHAT ACTUALLY MOVES THE NUMBER
Seniority mix
An architect-heavy team costs more per month and usually less overall. The wrong mix shows up as rework, not as an invoice line.
Scope certainty
Fixed price needs fixed scope. Where the requirement is still moving, time and materials beats the contingency a fixed bid has to carry.
Compliance requirements
Regulated environments add evidence, review cycles and audit trails. That is real work, and it belongs in the estimate rather than in a surprise.
Integration surface
The number of systems you must talk to predicts effort better than feature count. Ten integrations is a different project from two.

HOW WE DELIVER

Our Enterprise-Ready Delivery Framework

The same five steps on every engagement.
STEP 01
Contextual Readiness
Ready-to-deploy solutions for your environment. We map the existing estate, its dependencies and its constraints before proposing anything.
STEP 02
Seamless Vendor Onboarding
Rapid integration with existing vendor ecosystems. Access, environments, security review and ways of working, handled so engineering time isn't spent on procurement.
STEP 03
Platform-Agnostic Engineering
Works across any technology stack. We build on the stack that earns its place. We won't force a technology decision to suit our bench.
STEP 04
Flexible Engagement Model
Scalable team structures to your needs. The commercial shape can change as the work does, without renegotiating the relationship.
STEP 05
Hybrid Global Delivery
Onshore, nearshore and offshore delivery, with overlap hours that make standups worth attending.
WHEN WE'RE STAFFING A TEAM
Curated profiles · 24 to 48 hrs

HOW IT RUNS IN PRACTICE
Two-week sprints, demoable increments, a backlog your product owner controls
Peer review on every change and quality gates that block rather than warn
Canary and blue-green releases with rollback, so a bad deploy is a non-event

FAQS

Microsoft Copilot Development FAQs

Ask us directly →

How much do Microsoft Copilot licenses and agents cost?

Microsoft 365 Copilot is listed at $30 per user per month, paid yearly, on enterprise plans. Microsoft 365 Copilot Business is listed at $21 per user per month for organizations with up to 300 users. A promotional price runs through the end of 2026. Internal agents built in Copilot Studio come with a Copilot license. Agents published to outside channels need a standalone Copilot Studio plan, billed in Copilot Credits. Prices change often, so check Microsoft's pricing page before you budget. The bigger cost is usually idle seats.

Is Microsoft 365 Copilot just ChatGPT inside Office?

No. Microsoft 365 Copilot runs on OpenAI and other models, but it is grounded in your work data and respects each user's permissions. ChatGPT answers from its training and whatever you paste in. Copilot can draft a reply from your last ten emails with a client or summarize a Teams meeting. It can also find the latest contract version in SharePoint, all inside your tenant's security boundary.

What is the difference between Microsoft 365 Copilot, Copilot Chat and Copilot Studio?

Microsoft 365 Copilot is the paid assistant inside Word, Excel, Outlook and Teams that works on your organization's data. Copilot Chat is the chat experience Microsoft 365 users can access without that license, grounded mainly in the web and files they upload. Copilot Studio is the tool for building agents. They range from simple internal Q&A agents to ones that take actions and publish outside Microsoft 365. Most enterprises end up using all three for different groups of people.

How long does a Microsoft Copilot rollout take?

A focused Microsoft Copilot rollout for one or two departments typically takes six to twelve weeks from readiness assessment to a measured pilot. Most of that time goes to permission cleanup, sensitivity labeling and training, not technical setup. Company-wide deployment then follows in waves, once pilot usage and feedback justify more seats.

Do we need a Microsoft Copilot consultant, or can our IT team deploy it alone?

Your IT team can switch Copilot on without outside help, but switching it on is the easy part. A Microsoft Copilot consultant earns the fee on the work around the license. That means finding overshared content, deciding who gets seats, building agents that answer real questions and proving usage before renewal. If your SharePoint permissions are already clean and adoption is strong, you may only need help with Copilot Studio agents.
