The gap between adoption and control always sends a bill.
Move a few hundred users off a file share and into SharePoint without a governance model, and you rebuild the same unmanaged drive in the cloud, just faster and with sharing wide open. Copilot rollouts hit the same wall from another angle: licenses get bought, the rollout stalls, and the reason is rarely the AI. It’s that nobody measured what Copilot can already see.
Both trace back to the same cause, an environment that outgrew anyone’s ability to govern it. That costs real time: a few hours here from an admin, an afternoon there from whoever inherited SharePoint, and none of it ever shows up as a cost because none of it ever registered as a decision.
Software doesn’t produce governance. A slide deck doesn’t either.
A platform without a model just gives you a better view of a mess you still don’t have time to clean up. A policy written in a document decays the moment the consultants leave.
This partnership closes that gap: Compass365 designs what gets provisioned, reviewed, archived and by whom. Orchestry encodes those decisions and keeps them running after the project ends.
A straightforward path from assessment to handoff.
One place to see, provision, police and retire every workspace you own.
Orchestry is a Microsoft 365 governance and workspace lifecycle platform for Teams, SharePoint and OneDrive running as a consented enterprise application inside your tenant. Here’s what we actually implement:
Where this fits next to Microsoft’s own tools:
- Visibility that today means PowerShell scripts and switching between admin portals.
- Recurring review and archival discipline native tooling doesn’t automate on its own.
- A lifecycle bridge for organizations whose licensing doesn’t reach full Purview records management.
Real environments, real fixes.
100+ sites cleaned up in hours.
Site creation had outrun governance. Orchestry gave it a policy-driven model instead, and we cleaned up more than 100 sites in hours, not weeks.
Guest access, brought into view.
Surfaced governance risk in guest access and simplified policy management, giving IT a clearer view across the M365 admin centers.
A legacy intranet replaced and governed.
Replaced a legacy intranet with a governed SharePoint intranet built for findability, ownership and long-term maintainability.
Consistent sites, lower dev costs.
Modernized a legacy intranet with governed templates and consistent structure, cutting custom development costs along the way.
Sharing risk, sharply reduced.
Standardized workspace creation and sharply reduced anyone-links and open M365 sharing across the tenant.
