Technical context

When this work applies

  • The Microsoft environment grew organically and nobody can say what is risky, what is wasteful, or what to fix first.
  • Leadership has asked what to do first and nobody has given a straight answer.
  • You inherited the environment through a new role, an acquisition, or an MSP handover, and need a plain-English picture fast.
