What is a Data Estate Assessment?
A Data Estate Assessment is a structured review of your current data landscape, governance, and analytics capabilities with practical recommendations to build a secure, scalable, and insight-ready data foundation on Microsoft cloud. Our team aligns the assessment to Microsoft best practices across governance, integration, storage, and analytics so you can modernize with confidence.
What deliverables will I receive?
You receive a current-state analysis of data sources and flows, a governance and compliance gap review, an architecture recommendation for a modern data platform, and a prioritized roadmap with quick wins and phased initiatives. Where appropriate, we include guidance on data cataloguing and classification with Microsoft Purview, integration patterns with Azure Data Factory, analytics layers that may leverage Azure Synapse or Microsoft Fabric, and reporting strategy with Power BI.
Which Microsoft technologies do you assess and recommend?
We focus on the Microsoft data stack your business can scale on. This commonly includes Microsoft Purview for data governance, Azure Data Factory for ingestion and pipelines, Azure Synapse Analytics and Microsoft Fabric for unified analytics, and Power BI for self-service reporting and enterprise BI. Recommendations are tailored to your current environment and objectives.
How does MSP Corp address data governance and compliance during the assessment?
Governance is built in from the start. We map sensitive data, classify it, and outline policies for access, retention, and data loss prevention using Microsoft Purview capabilities. This helps you improve visibility across your data estate and strengthen compliance posture as you modernize.
Will the assessment disrupt day-to-day operations?
The assessment is collaborative and low impact. We use workshops and targeted interviews, review available documentation, and request read-only access where needed. Any hands-on validation or proof-of-concept work is planned around your operational windows and change controls, and can leverage Azure landing zone and architecture guidance from our Microsoft practice.
What happens after the assessment?
You can execute the roadmap with our specialists or in a co-managed model. We can implement the recommended data platform components, establish governance with Purview, stand up pipelines in Azure Data Factory, configure analytics in Synapse or Fabric, and deliver actionable dashboards and reports with Power BI. Ongoing managed services are available to help you operate and optimize the solution.
