AZURE — CLOUD FOUNDATION / LANDING ZONE
A landing zone designed with the Cloud Adoption Framework, not guessed at.
Subscription hierarchy, management groups, and governance structured before workloads pile on — or retrofitted cleanly if they already have.

Signals
This is likely relevant if…
!Subscriptions and management groups were created ad hoc, with no hierarchy
!No one can explain how workloads map to management groups or policy scope
!You're not following Microsoft's Cloud Adoption Framework, or aren't sure if you are
!Every new subscription means re-deciding structure from scratch
!Governance exists on paper but isn't enforced through the actual subscription design
!You're planning a large migration and have nowhere solid to land it
How we work
New solution, or fix what you have
Tell us which situation you're in — the consultation is scoped differently depending on the answer.
Path A — Solution design
Nothing's in place yet
You're standing up Azure for the first time, or planning a large migration and need a landing zone to land it in.
- Management group and subscription hierarchy designed against CAF
- Landing zone architecture matched to your organization's scale
- Policy and governance scope defined from the start
Path B — Fix / enhance
Something exists but isn't working
A landing zone sort of exists, but it grew organically and doesn't match CAF guidance anymore.
- Audit of current subscription and management group structure
- Gap analysis against Cloud Adoption Framework guidance
- Retrofit plan that doesn't require tearing everything down
