**Stack:** CMMC · HIPAA · SOC 2 · GCC High · Purview

## The situation

A customer just sent you a 110-control questionnaire with a deadline. Your tenant is in commercial. The clock is real.

## The problem

Defense work now means CMMC, and CMMC means proving controls you may not have — in a tenant that may be the wrong cloud entirely. Healthcare and finance carry their own versions of the same clock.

Most Microsoft partners can't credibly play here: GCC High migrations, Purview configuration, and audit-ready evidence are specialist work.

## Solved looks like

- The right cloud for the obligation — commercial, GCC, or GCC High — with a migration path that doesn't torch productivity on the way.
- Purview doing the actual work: retention, DLP, sensitivity labels, eDiscovery — configured against your controls, not the defaults.
- Evidence collected once, organized to be reused for the next audit, the next customer questionnaire, the next renewal.
