Intune, Autopilot & Endpoint Management

Microsoft Intune Consulting

Replace desk-side imaging and aging Group Policy with cloud device management: Windows Autopilot provisioning, compliance tied to Conditional Access, app delivery, and update control from Microsoft Intune.

ProvisionWindows Autopilot so new devices ship straight to users.
ComplyCompliance policies linked to Entra ID Conditional Access.
DeliverWin32, Store, and line-of-business apps packaged and assigned.
UpdateWindows update rings with pilot groups and rollback paths.

Endpoint workstreams

Device management that holds up

Intune works best when identity, policy, apps, and support processes are designed together. We build all four.

Assess

Current-state review

Existing ConfigMgr or Group Policy, device join state, hardware age, app catalog, and how devices are bought, imaged, and retired today.

Provision

Windows Autopilot

Autopilot profiles, enrollment status pages, naming, and hardware-hash or partner registration so devices arrive ready to use.

Policy

Settings & security

Group Policy translated to the Intune settings catalog, security baselines, BitLocker, Windows LAPS, Defender, and local admin controls.

Access

Compliance & Conditional Access

Device compliance policies that feed Entra ID Conditional Access so only healthy, managed devices reach company data.

Apps

Application delivery

Win32 packaging, Microsoft 365 Apps, Store apps, required versus available assignments, and dependency and supersedence rules.

Platforms

Apple & Android

Apple Business Manager enrollment for Macs and iPhones, Android Enterprise, and app protection policies for personal devices.

MDM

From imaging to zero-touch

We roll Intune out in rings: IT first, then a pilot department, then everyone. Each ring has success criteria so problems surface while the blast radius is small.

Plan the Intune Rollout
  • ✓ConfigMgr co-management or direct move to Intune, chosen from your environment
  • ✓Hybrid join versus Entra join decision with the trade-offs documented
  • ✓Group Policy analytics review before rebuilding settings in Intune
  • ✓Windows Autopilot and Autopilot device preparation design
  • ✓Update rings, feature update targeting, and driver update policy
  • ✓Help-desk runbooks for enrollment failures, resets, and device replacement

Where projects go wrong

Common Intune rollout mistakes

These are the issues we most often fix in Intune tenants that were set up quickly.

Lockout

Compliance before readiness

Turning on Conditional Access that requires compliant devices before every device is enrolled and compliant locks people out on day one.

Policy

GPO copied one-to-one

Recreating every legacy Group Policy setting carries old problems forward. Many settings are obsolete or already covered by security baselines.

Conflicts

Overlapping profiles

Multiple configuration profiles and baselines that set the same value create conflicts that are hard to troubleshoot.

Autopilot

Enrollment status page

Blocking apps that fail or install slowly during Autopilot leave users staring at a setup screen. Only truly required apps should block.

Join type

Hybrid join by default

Choosing hybrid join for new devices when Entra join would work adds on-premises dependencies that slow provisioning.

BYOD

Personal devices

Fully enrolling personal phones creates privacy pushback. App protection policies usually protect company data with less friction.

FAQ

Intune consulting questions

No. Co-management lets ConfigMgr and Intune run side by side while workloads move over gradually. Some organizations later retire ConfigMgr entirely; others keep it for specific needs.
For most organizations, Entra join is simpler and faster for new Windows devices. Hybrid join still makes sense where on-premises apps or policies depend on domain membership. We document which applies to you.
Yes. Company-owned Apple devices enroll through Apple Business Manager, Android devices through Android Enterprise, and personal devices can be protected with app protection policies instead of full enrollment.
It depends on device count, app catalog, and how much existing policy must be reviewed. We roll out in rings so the first managed devices arrive early while the rest of the fleet follows on a schedule.
For Entra-joined devices, Intune configuration profiles and the settings catalog take over most of what Group Policy did. We review existing policies first so only the settings you still need are rebuilt.
