Baseline is a partnership of two practices under one roof. Each engagement gets the partner whose work it is, and you work with them directly. Based in Frederick, Maryland. Working nationwide.
We keep the list short on purpose. Everything below is work we have done many times, for organizations that have real stakes in getting it right.
Tenant moves and consolidations. Exchange, SharePoint, and OneDrive cutovers. Skype for Business to Teams without the users giving up on IT halfway through. Plans that account for the hundred things nobody thought to mention in the kickoff.
Landing zones, identity integration, networking and policy that will still make sense in eighteen months. Review and remediation of what you already have running in production.
Conditional access, Intune, Defender, Purview. Configurations that pass an audit without bringing the business to a halt. Documentation that somebody will actually read.
Ongoing operations for smaller teams that need senior engineers instead of a ticket queue. Strategic IT leadership for owners who need a technical partner but not a full time hire. Month to month. Paired with a managed service provider where that fits.
Fixed scope, fixed price, known end date. For migrations, assessments, and deployments where everyone wants to know what it costs before it starts.
A named engineer, a set number of hours each month, available when you need them. For teams that want a senior technical partner on speed dial.
Hourly, no commitment. For second opinions, architecture reviews, and the calls that start with, "before we buy this, can you look at it."
