Microsoft AI, automation and governance consulting

Build useful Microsoft AI and automation solutions without losing control.

SMCPS helps organisations design and deliver practical solutions using Microsoft Copilot Studio, Power Platform, SharePoint and Microsoft 365. The focus is simple: automate the right work, improve access to knowledge, strengthen governance and help teams adopt the change properly.

Who we are

Built for practical Microsoft change.

Most organisations already own Microsoft 365, SharePoint, Teams and Power Platform. Many are now being pushed to use Copilot and AI agents. The hard part is choosing the right use case, designing the solution properly and making sure it is governed, adopted and supportable.

SMCPS was built to work in that space. We combine senior Microsoft architecture, governance and delivery experience with capability design and readiness assessment, so the solution improves real work rather than becoming another unmanaged tool.

Product portfolio

Scenarios + ASCEND makes readiness visible.

Scenarios + ASCEND helps organisations rehearse difficult decisions, evidence judgement quality, guide targeted improvement and govern the full learning-to-performance cycle.

It is not an LMS and it is not another generic AI tool. It uses an organisation's own cases, policies and operating context to create realistic decision practice, then turns that practice into evidence of confidence, consistency, gaps and targeted development need.

A guided walkthrough showing how teams rehearse decisions, review evidence and identify improvement areas.

How we help

From unclear position to evidenced readiness.

Good advisory work should leave leaders with fewer blind spots. We assess the real position, say what needs to be said and help turn the findings into action.

01 / Clarify

Name the real gap

We test whether the issue is architecture, governance, process, capability, confidence or delivery discipline.

02 / Shape

Shape what will hold

We design proportionate governance, solution patterns and readiness work that can survive real operational pressure.

03 / Deliver

Evidence the change

We focus on the proof leaders need: stronger governance, clearer ownership, better adoption and measurable readiness.

Our approach

A simple, repeatable way of working.

The same disciplined approach whether the engagement is two weeks or twelve months: transparent, collaborative and focused on usable outcomes.

01

Understand the reality

We read what exists, listen to the people doing the work and form an independent view of the current position.

02

Identify the real problem

We separate symptoms, reporting noise and root causes.

03

Map options and risks

We make choices, constraints and consequences visible before recommending a route.

04

Design a way forward

We turn assessment into practical governance, architecture, capability and delivery actions.

05

Measure what changes

We focus on evidence of performance and readiness, not activity for its own sake.

About SMCPS

Founder-led by two practitioners who reached the same problem from different sides.

From the technology side: organisations underestimate the governance and adoption work required to make Microsoft investments perform. From the capability side: organisations over-invest in content and under-invest in structured readiness. SMCPS was built at that junction.

Tell us what you want Microsoft AI or automation to improve.

We will help you decide whether the right starting point is a Copilot Studio agent, a Power Platform workflow, a SharePoint and M365 clean-up, or a readiness review before you build.

Contact

Let's start with the business problem.

Tell us briefly what you want to improve. We will respond with an honest view of whether the right first step is discovery, a prototype, an automation sprint, a SharePoint health check or adoption support.
