The Challenge
A fast-growing analytics company that had operated informally with 50 employees using personal tools needed to professionalize their IT infrastructure as they scaled to 300 employees across 12 countries. They had no corporate email, no device management, no security controls, and every employee used personal laptops with personal Google accounts. Enterprise customers were rejecting them due to lack of SOC 2 compliance and basic security controls.
Our Solution
CloudTechForce built the company's entire IT infrastructure from scratch in 60 days. We deployed Microsoft 365 E5 with centralized identity management across all 12 countries, implemented Intune with zero-touch device enrollment (new hires receive a preconfigured laptop shipped to their home), established Azure Virtual Desktop for contractors and BYOD scenarios, deployed comprehensive security stack (Defender, Conditional Access, DLP, email encryption), created automated onboarding and offboarding workflows (IT provisioning completes in under 1 hour), implemented 24/7 help desk with follow-the-sun coverage across time zones, and initiated SOC 2 Type II certification process.
Results
300 employees across 12 countries fully operational in 60 days
New employee IT setup reduced from 3 days to 45 minutes
SOC 2 Type II certification achieved within 9 months
Won $6M enterprise contract previously blocked by security concerns
Employee IT satisfaction: 4.8/5.0 (from 2.1/5.0 pre-engagement)
"We went from 'everyone uses their personal Gmail' to a Fortune 500-grade IT infrastructure in 60 days. CloudTechForce understood remote-first — they did not try to force an office-centric model on a company with no offices."
