SharePoint Consultants with Federal Government Experience (2026)
GCC / GCC High / DoD tenant delivery. FedRAMP + CMMC 2.0 methodology. Agency past performance. US-citizen delivery for classified tenants.
Last updated July 9, 2026 by Errin O'Connor, Founder & Chief AI Architect, EPC Group
Federal SharePoint consultants must demonstrate seven capabilities: named agency past performance, GCC / GCC High / DoD tenant delivery, FedRAMP-aligned methodology, CMMC 2.0 support, US-citizen delivery, records management depth, and Section 508 accessibility. Six tenant environment tiers match data classification (Commercial / GCC / GCC High / DoD IL4-5 / Azure Government / TS-SCI). EPC Group federal past performance: FRBNY TARP Congressional Oversight Committee, NARA records management, invited contributor to first U.S. CIO 25-Point Plan. Fixed-fee engagement model with US-citizen delivery for GCC High + DoD tenants.

Federal SharePoint Consulting FAQ
What should a SharePoint consulting firm demonstrate for federal government work?
Seven federal-readiness requirements: (1) Named past performance on agency contracts — civilian, DoD, or intelligence community — with sanctioned public references. (2) GCC / GCC High / DoD tenant delivery experience with documented boundary configurations. (3) FedRAMP-aligned delivery methodology mapped to NIST 800-53 controls (Authorization Boundary Diagram, Control Implementation Summary, Continuous Monitoring plan, shared-responsibility matrix). (4) CMMC 2.0 Level 1-3 readiness support for DoD-adjacent contractors. (5) US-citizen delivery team commitment for GCC High + DoD tenants. (6) Records management practice depth (NARA-aligned schedules, retention labeling via Purview, hold policies). (7) Section 508 accessibility expertise for public-facing intranets. Ask for evidence of each — press releases, contract vehicle listings, cleared personnel records.
What are the SharePoint tenant boundary options for federal agencies?
Six tenant environment tiers matched to data classification: (1) Microsoft 365 Commercial — CUI Basic; NOT approved for CUI Specified, ITAR, EAR, or FCL work. (2) Microsoft 365 GCC — CUI Basic + CJIS + FBI CJIS data; FedRAMP Moderate impact level; US persons only for administrative access. (3) Microsoft 365 GCC High — CUI Specified + ITAR + EAR + DFARS 7012 + NIST 800-171 + CMMC Level 3; FedRAMP High baseline; US-citizen access only. (4) Microsoft 365 DoD — DoD IL4 / IL5 data; separate tenant from GCC High. (5) Azure Government — same US-citizen access requirements + FedRAMP High + DoD IL2-IL5 workload support. (6) Azure Secret / Top Secret — IC / DoD workloads on Azure Government Secret (JWICS-adjacent). Tenant choice is the single most important design decision — the wrong choice restarts the entire program.
How does an EPC Group federal SharePoint engagement work?
Six-phase methodology: (1) Federal fit-call — 45 minutes with senior architect + federal practice lead + your CISO / ISSO / contracting officer to confirm classification, tenant target, past performance requirements, personnel clearance requirements, contract vehicle. (2) Phase 1 discovery (fixed-fee $35K-$65K, 3-4 weeks) — current-state assessment, target-tenant boundary design, control mapping to NIST 800-53 / 800-171, migration architecture, ATO/A&A documentation gap analysis. (3) Phase 2 architecture design (fixed-fee, 4-6 weeks) — detailed target-state architecture, information architecture, security control implementation summary, migration runbook, cutover plan. (4) Phase 3 implementation — pilot tenant configuration, IA build-out, integration configuration. (5) Phase 4 migration + cutover — wave-based content migration with dual-hop validation. (6) Phase 5 sustainment — ongoing managed services with US-citizen delivery for GCC High/DoD tenants. Deliverables include ABD, CIS, ConMon plan, shared-responsibility matrix, and all evidence artifacts required for the agency ATO package.
What federal past performance should EPC Group cite?
EPC Group federal past performance is deliberately conservative in public naming. Sanctioned references (public information): Federal Reserve Bank of New York (2008-2010 TARP Congressional Oversight Committee support), National Archives and Records Administration (SharePoint records management implementation), invited contributor to the first U.S. CIO Vivek Kundra's 25-Point Plan to Reform Federal Information Technology Management (Obama administration). Additional federal + defense contractor past performance is released under NDA after a Phase 1 fit-call because many state, sheriff, court, tribal, and intelligence community engagements have public-information restrictions that prevent disclosure on a public website. Federal contractor M&A practice includes multiple defense-industrial-base primes and subs — 216+ M&A M365 tenant migrations, 1.83M+ users migrated.
What is the typical federal SharePoint engagement pricing structure?
Six pricing anchors for federal SharePoint work: (1) Phase 1 Federal Discovery — $35K-$65K, 3-4 weeks, produces target-tenant boundary decision + Phase 2 fixed-fee proposal. (2) GCC / GCC High tenant configuration + baseline security — $85K-$175K, 6-10 weeks. (3) SharePoint content migration (up to 1TB, up to 10 site collections) — $65K-$185K, 8-14 weeks. (4) SharePoint content migration (enterprise scale, 5TB-50TB, 100+ site collections, records-management-heavy) — $250K-$1.2M, 4-9 months. (5) FedRAMP ATO documentation support (ABD, CIS workbook, ConMon plan) — $85K-$225K, 4-8 weeks. (6) Sustainment / managed services retainer — $15K-$85K/month depending on tenant complexity + user count. Fixed-fee model throughout — no time-and-materials sprawl on federal engagements.
What contract vehicles does EPC Group work through?
EPC Group delivers federal engagements via three primary paths: (1) Direct contract to agency where agency has authority to contract directly with small businesses. (2) Prime contractor teaming — EPC Group as Microsoft-specialist subcontractor to primes on multi-year IDIQ / BPA / GWAC vehicles (SEWP, CIO-SP4, GSA MAS, Alliant 2, OASIS+). (3) Federal contract vehicles held by strategic teaming partners. Prior contract vehicle experience includes GSA schedule teaming and multiple prime-sub relationships across civilian and defense agencies. Specific vehicle availability discussed at Phase 1 fit-call because it depends on agency + scope + timeline. For agencies without pre-existing vehicles: direct micro-purchase authority up to $10K, simplified acquisition procedures $10K-$250K, or full FAR-15 competitive procurement for larger scopes.
What personnel clearance capabilities does EPC Group have?
Personnel clearance capabilities depend on tenant classification: (1) Public / CUI Basic (commercial tenant) — US persons preferred, no formal clearance required. (2) GCC (CUI Basic + CJIS) — US persons only for administrative access. (3) GCC High (CUI Specified + ITAR) — US-citizen delivery team commitment; interim security screening may be required by agency. (4) DoD IL5 — US citizens + interim TS clearance eligible for some workloads. (5) TS / SCI — cleared personnel available through partner teaming arrangements for IC-adjacent workloads. Cleared-personnel capacity is discussed at Phase 1 fit-call. Contract structure ensures cleared personnel are named in delivery team from day one — no bait-and-switch where cleared personnel appear only in the proposal.
