Governed agents. Enterprise impact.
Microsoft Frontier E7, Fabric, Copilot Studio and Agent 365. Governed AI agents for regulated enterprises.
Design your AI programWhere Microsoft estate meets regulated business
Identity, data protection and governance determine whether AI can be enabled safely. We connect architecture, engineering, adoption and audit evidence in one accountable program.
Six layers. One governed data path.

We design
Business-led architecture. Shared grounding, builder choice, hosting and model decisions tied to measurable outcomes.
We build
Tenant-level engineering. Purview labels, Fabric ontology, Copilot Studio environments, Foundry agents and GitHub pipelines.
We govern
Evidence at every gate. Define, Build, Deploy, Manage. A named owner, versioned evaluations and replayable logs for every agent.
E5 vs. E7 Frontier Suite
E7 combines E5, Microsoft 365 Copilot, Entra Suite and Agent 365. Fabric capacity and Foundry/Copilot Studio agent compute are billed separately. Validate current licensing and availability with Microsoft.

Copilot Studio: from environment to operation
- 01
Environment
Dev, test and production. Connector boundaries and tenant MCP policy.
- 02
Knowledge
Shared Foundry IQ grounding. Purview-labeled SharePoint and Dataverse sources.
- 03
Build
Instructions, tools, triggers and workflows with maker review.
- 04
Gate
Named owner, purpose, approved tools, evaluations and oversharing checks.
- 05
Publish
Teams and Microsoft 365 Copilot. Agent 365 onboarding with Entra Agent ID.
- 06
Operate
Monitor usage and risk in Agent 365, Purview DLP and Defender.
The engineering behind the agents
Fabric & OneLake
OneLake domains, shortcuts and mirroring, medallion layers and Direct Lake. Fabric IQ builds business context from Power BI semantic models. OneLake security and Purview protect the gold layer used by agents.
Microsoft Foundry
Agent Service, Model Router and Evaluations. GitHub Actions release gates, permission-aware IQ retrieval and APIM AI Gateway quotas. Pin models for regulated flows and report token costs by team.
Agent 365
Inventory, ownership, usage and posture across the agent fleet. Entra Agent ID provides identity; Purview protects reads and writes; Defender detects threats. Runtime findings feed back into versioned evaluations.
Applied AI, across regulated sectors
Aviation & simulation leader
Fabric, Foundry and Copilot Studio pipelines with API security and MCP servers give agents one governed data path.
Real estate REIT
A Fabric AI data mesh brings 50 consolidated applications into a governed estate for agents and real-time Power BI reporting.
Consumer products group
Agentic HR onboarding and offboarding replaces manual tickets with governed identity, device and application workflows.
Asset management group
A People and Culture agent serves staff across seven companies in Canada and the US, grounded in SharePoint and HR policy with per-user permissions.
National airline
An MCP-based agentic call center resolves live-system requests within tool and data security boundaries.
Retail property REIT
An E5 security program rebuilds Purview as the data protection layer for Copilot and agents, aligned to NIST.
Industrial distribution business
Finance labels, DLP and retention precede a governed Microsoft 365 Copilot rollout and operational AI proof of concept.
Canadian real estate portfolio
Classification, retention and data governance create the foundation for reporting, AI strategy and execution.
An engineering bench, not just a roadmap
CIO and CISO advisory, PMO and fixed-fee milestones. Purview, Entra, Defender, Sentinel and Intune engineers; Fabric, OneLake, Power BI and SharePoint architects; Copilot Studio, Foundry and GitHub agent builders. Readiness in 3 weeks, a focused pilot in 8 to 12 weeks, then phased delivery with training, change management and NIST 800-53 / ISO 42001 evidence.
