We focus on pricing based on outcomes, not hours.
Our San Diego Engagement Model
- Week 1-2: On-site or remote discovery with your IT, security, and business stakeholders. We audit your current Microsoft environment, identify gaps, and build a prioritized roadmap.
- Week 3-6: Sprint-based delivery. We implement the highest-value items first — typically Copilot governance, Power BI semantic models, or SharePoint migration waves.
- Week 7-12: Production hardening, user training, and knowledge transfer. Your team owns the solution when we leave.
- Ongoing: Optional managed services at three tiers (Essentials, Advanced, Enterprise) for organizations that want 24/7 support and continuous optimization.

SharePoint Architecture: 2026 Considerations for SharePoint Consulting San Diego
In 2026, SharePoint Online tenant-to-tenant migration primarily involves three methods:
- Native Microsoft 365 migration tools: These are free but limited to in-place tenant scenarios.
- ShareGate: This tool is best-in-class for preserving permissions across hub-spoke architectures.
- AvePoint Migrator: This option is suitable for enterprise scale and includes regulated-industry compliance reporting.
EPC Group selects projects based on three main criteria: user count, permission complexity, and audit-reporting needs.
A typical enterprise migration takes:
- 8 to 16 weeks
- Costs between $150K and $450K
Microsoft Purview information protection on SharePoint Online has seen significant improvements through 2026. Sensitivity labels can now auto-classify using Microsoft 365 Copilot grounding hints.
Additionally, container labels enforce sharing controls at the site level. This enhances security and compliance for organizations.
Moreover, Purview content explorer can identify unauthorized PHI/PII exposure in real time.
For HIPAA-regulated tenants, the following features create an audit-defensible posture:
- Auto-labeling
- Sensitivity-aware DLP
- Audit (Premium) 6-year retention
Decision factors EPC Group evaluates
- Sensitivity label rollout with auto-classification rules
- Microsoft Purview content explorer for unauthorized PHI/PII discovery
- Hub-spoke information architecture redesign vs legacy flat-IA
- Migration tool selection (Microsoft native vs ShareGate vs AvePoint) by complexity tier
- Audit (Premium) configuration for 6-year retention

SharePoint Consulting in San Diego, CA delivered by senior Microsoft architects
EPC Group provides services to enterprise customers in San Diego, CA. Our team consists of regional senior architects who have hands-on production delivery experience.
We follow a local engagement model that mirrors our national practice. This includes:
- Senior-architect-led projects
- Fixed-fee accelerators
- Milestone-billed projects
- Compliance-native delivery for healthcare
- Financial services
- Government
- Manufacturing
Clients in San Diego, CA often start with a 30-minute discovery call. They may also choose a fixed-fee Tenant Health Check or Copilot Readiness Assessment.
On-site visits to San Diego, CA are available if the engagement requires them. However, most discovery and design phases are conducted remotely, with weekly executive updates.
Fixed-fee accelerators with real scope
Our services offer predictable scope, price, and outcome. We provide defined accelerators such as:

How EPC Group engages
Six-phase methodology applied to every engagement, compressed for fixed-fee accelerators and extended for full programs.
- Discovery — two-week assessment of the current estate, gap analysis, risk register, target architecture, costed remediation roadmap.
- Design — senior architect produces the target topology, identity framework, Conditional Access, Purview, governance model, and security posture, reviewed by client leads.
- Pilot — 25 to 100 user pilot in a real business unit. Migrate, apply baselines, test integrations, capture feedback.
- Wave rollout — migrate in waves of 500 to 2,500 users with communications, training, hypercare, and a per-wave retrospective.
- Adoption — role-based training, Champions network, executive sponsor enablement, metrics tracked against a measured baseline.
- Operate — optional managed-services retainer for license optimization, governance reviews, security monitoring, and quarterly business reviews.
