How long does a Dallas deployment take?

Can EPC Group work onsite in Dallas?

Yes — senior architects travel to Dallas for kickoff workshops, executive readouts, and architecture reviews when on-site presence accelerates outcomes. Day-to-day delivery is hybrid (remote-first with selective on-site).

Microsoft Copilot Deployment: 2026 Considerations for Copilot Enterprise Consulting Dallas

Microsoft 365 Copilot pricing at $30/user/month in 2026 makes deployment economics simple at the unit level: 1,000 users equals $360K/year. The harder math is governance: enterprises spending $360K on Copilot licenses but skipping the $50K-$150K Copilot Readiness Assessment lose 60-80% of the productivity ROI to oversharing exposure, sensitivity-label gaps, and prompt-injection-driven data leakage. EPC Group standard 30-day rollout includes oversharing remediation as the gate before license assignment.

Copilot Studio custom agents in 2026 cost $0.01 per message at the consumption-based pricing tier, with prepaid capacity packs starting at $200/month for 25,000 messages. The build-vs-buy decision typically hinges on knowledge source quality: enterprises with well-governed SharePoint sites and clean Dataverse tables see 8-12 week time-to-production for departmental agents (HR policy, IT helpdesk); enterprises with un-remediated content sources see 16-26 weeks because grounding cleanup dominates the timeline.

Decision factors EPC Group evaluates

  • Oversharing audit before any production license assignment
  • Microsoft Sentinel detections for prompt injection and abnormal use
  • Sensitivity label coverage on high-risk content types
  • Copilot Studio agent governance + cost-management framework
  • Conditional Access policy targeted at Copilot-licensed users
