The Challenge
Cloud migration programmes often fail to deliver value when every workload is treated as a migration candidate. Some applications should move quickly, some need remediation, some should be modernized, and some should be retired entirely. Without a structured assessment, organizations risk inaccurate budgets, missed dependencies, duplicated infrastructure costs, and delayed business outcomes.
What the assessment helps you do
Discover workloads, dependencies, support risks, and infrastructure relationships across the estate.
Identify workloads to retire, retain, rehost, replatform, refactor, or modernize.
Build a phased migration sequence based on business priority, technical dependency, and readiness.
Estimate cost implications before migration waves begin.
Define governance for workloads that remain outside Azure, including hybrid management through Azure Arc where appropriate.
Confirm applicable Microsoft-aligned programmes, incentives, or funding pathways where workloads qualify.
Offer value proposition
This gated offer is designed for IT, infrastructure, application, and business technology leaders who need a practical migration roadmap before committing budget or execution resources. The outcome is not just a list of servers. It is a decision-ready view of what should move, what should modernize, what should remain hybrid, and what should be retired.
What you will receive
Estate discovery summary covering workload inventory, dependencies, and current-state risks.
Migration and modernization prioritization model aligned to business value and technical readiness.
Costed wave plan showing suggested sequencing, dependencies, and decision points.
Retirement and consolidation recommendations to reduce unnecessary migration scope.
Hybrid governance considerations for workloads that remain on-premises or outside Azure.
Recommended next steps for pilot, landing zone readiness, migration waves, and stakeholder ownership.
How the engagement works
01.
Discovery:
We gather available estate data, stakeholder input, application context, infrastructure details, and known constraints.
02.
Assessment:
We review architecture, workload dependencies, performance considerations, support timelines, and modernization readiness.
03.
Sequencing:
We group workloads into practical migration or modernization waves with owners, rollback considerations, and risk notes.
04.
Optimization:
We identify workloads that can be retired or consolidated and surface cost levers such as licensing, right-sizing, and funding eligibility.
05.
Roadmap:
We deliver a clear migration and modernization plan that can support executive alignment, technical planning, and project execution.
Why Microsoft Azure
Microsoft guidance frames migration as a phased journey that includes planning, preparation, execution, evaluation, and decommissioning, helping organizations assess workloads, build migration plans, prepare Azure environments, and retire source environments with confidence. A structured workload assessment also helps create visibility into architecture, dependencies, performance, security, code, and databases before migration decisions are made.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens after I submit the form?
A migration specialist will contact you to confirm your current estate, assessment goals, stakeholder availability, and preferred next step.
Do I need a complete inventory before starting?
No. The assessment is designed to help create clarity where documentation is incomplete, outdated, or spread across multiple teams.
Will every workload be moved to Azure?
Not necessarily. The assessment separates workloads that should migrate, modernize, remain hybrid, or be retired so the migration scope is based on value and readiness.
Can funding or incentives be included?
Where eligible, applicable Microsoft-aligned programmes, incentives, or funding pathways can be reviewed as part of planning before execution begins.
