Implementation of Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat

First Technology (Pty) Ltd

Securely deploy Microsoft Copilot Chat. We provide readiness assessment, technical configuration, data governance, and user adoption to transform your workforce productivity with enterprise AI.

Unlock the power of Enterprise AI with a secure, managed deployment of Microsoft Copilot Chat.

As organizations race to adopt generative AI, the challenge lies not just in turning it on, but in rolling it out securely. Our implementation service ensures your organization can leverage the conversational capabilities of Microsoft Copilot (formerly Bing Chat Enterprise and Microsoft 365 Chat) while maintaining strict data privacy, compliance, and governance.

We bridge the gap between technical readiness and workforce adoption, ensuring your data remains protected while your employees gain a powerful AI assistant.

Activities to be Carried Out

Our engagement follows a structured, phased approach to ensure a smooth deployment:

  • Phase 1: Readiness & Security Assessment

    • Analyze your Microsoft 365 tenant for technical prerequisites (licensing, update channels, semantic index).

    • Conduct a Data Governance Health Check to identify oversharing risks (permissions, sensitivity labels).

    • Define security policies and conditional access rules for AI interactions.

  • Phase 2: Configuration & Deployment

    • Configure Microsoft Search and Semantic Index for Copilot to ensure accurate, grounded responses.

    • Enable and configure Copilot Chat service plans for targeted user groups.

    • Implement data protection policies (DLP) to prevent sensitive data leakage within chat sessions.

  • Phase 3: User Enablement & Adoption

    • Develop a "Prompt Engineering" guide tailored to your specific industry use cases.

    • Conduct "Art of the Possible" workshops to demonstrate key workflows (e.g., summarizing documents, drafting emails, brainstorming).

    • Establish a "Champions Network" to support peer-to-peer learning and scaling.

End Goal

By the end of this engagement, your organization will have a fully functional, secure, and compliant instance of Microsoft Copilot Chat deployed to your workforce. You will move from "access" to "adoption," with a clear governance framework in place that protects your corporate IP while empowering employees to use AI safely.

Benefits 

  • Data Security First: We ensure your proprietary data never leaks into public models. Copilot Chat uses your data to provide answers but does not train on it.

  • Accelerated Productivity: Employees can instantly summarize long threads, locate internal information, and draft content, saving hours per week.

  • Reduced Risk: Proactive identification and remediation of permission gaps (oversharing) before AI exposes them.

  • Measurable ROI: Faster time-to-value through targeted training that focuses on high-impact daily tasks rather than generic feature lists.
