Plan first.
Build second.
Fix less.
Design clean, scalable SharePoint architectures and prepare for Copilot — without touching your Microsoft tenant.
The SharePoint Mess is Real
Most organizations jump straight into building sites without a plan. The result? A digital sprawl that's impossible to manage.
The "Build First" Approach
Files scattered across hundreds of disconnected sites
Broken search and impossible-to-find documents
Permissions nightmares and security risks
"We'll fix it later" (spoiler: you won't)
The "Plan First" Approach
Visual architecture designed before a single site is created
Metadata and content types defined for powerful search
Governance rules baked into the design
Clear documentation for stakeholders and developers
