Cloud migration services for UK businesses

Understand what you run today and how it supports the business. Review applications, data and infrastructure, identify dependencies and decide which systems are suitable for a move. Use the findings to set priorities before committing to a migration plan.

For wider technology planning, explore our IT consultancy services.

Turn the assessment into a practical roadmap. Set out the migration stages, responsibilities, timescales and decisions needed from your team. Include service windows and recovery arrangements so everyone understands how the change will be managed.

Plan how files, applications and databases will move, and how the results will be checked. Confirm the transfer method, access requirements and validation steps, with clear arrangements for resolving issues during the change.

For wider security planning, explore our cyber security services.

Keep the systems that need to stay on premises and connect them with suitable cloud services. Review how users will access both environments, how information moves between them and who will manage and support them.

Check how the new environment is performing against your requirements. Review usage, capacity and ongoing costs, then prioritise any improvements. Confirm which optimisation work is included and which would be a separate project.

Decide what your team needs once the move is complete. This may include monitoring, updates, troubleshooting or training. Define the systems covered, responsibilities and support arrangements so the handover is clear.

For skills support, explore our IT training.

Start with the systems, users and business priorities involved. Identify dependencies, constraints and what success needs to look like.

Define the scope, sequence, responsibilities and costs. Set out how the move will be checked and how disruption or recovery will be handled.

Work through the migration stages, validate the result and confirm the support and optimisation needed afterwards.
