What Microsoft 365 consulting services does EPC Group provide?

EPC Group provides M365 deployment, migration, governance, security configuration, Copilot readiness, compliance setup, and managed services. We specialize in enterprise M365 environments with 1,000+ users requiring HIPAA, SOC 2, or FedRAMP compliance.

How much does Microsoft 365 consulting cost?

M365 consulting is scoped to the engagement: a focused migration, an enterprise governance and security implementation, or full platform optimization with Copilot. EPC Group offers fixed-price engagements.

Can EPC Group help with Microsoft 365 compliance?

Yes. EPC Group configures Microsoft 365 compliance features including retention policies, DLP, sensitivity labels, eDiscovery, communication compliance, and information barriers. We map these controls to specific frameworks: HIPAA, SOC 2, FedRAMP, GDPR, and CCPA.

How does EPC Group handle M365 tenant-to-tenant migrations?

EPC Group manages complex tenant-to-tenant migrations for M&A scenarios including mailbox migration, SharePoint content, Teams channels, OneDrive data, security groups, and conditional access policies. We use BitTitan, ShareGate, and custom PowerShell for seamless coexistence during transition.

Microsoft 365 Strategy: 2026 Considerations for Microsoft Viva Consulting Microsoft 365 Viva Consulting Employee Engagement

Microsoft 365 GCC High vs Commercial tenant in 2026 governs whether a contractor can hold Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) for federal work under CMMC Level 2 (110 NIST 800-171 controls) or Level 3 (134 controls). GCC High costs roughly 2x the commercial equivalent (Microsoft list price $23-$57/user/mo) but is non-negotiable for any DoD prime or sub-prime handling CUI. Migration from Commercial to GCC High is a 14-22 week project.

Microsoft 365 E5 vs E3 in 2026 is fundamentally a security and compliance decision. E5 ($57/user/mo) bundles Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Plan 2, Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps, Insider Risk Management, Communication Compliance, Microsoft Sentinel-fed audit logs, Customer Lockbox, and Audit (Premium) 6-year retention; the full set is roughly $35/user/mo of additional value if purchased as E3 plus add-ons. For regulated industries, the E5 bundle is typically less expensive than the equivalent E3 stack.
