Frequently Asked Questions

What types of cloud migration consulting and M&A IT services does Concurrency provide?

Concurrency supports a wide range of enterprise transitions, including facility‑to‑cloud migrations, cloud‑to‑cloud migrations, mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, and post‑merger consolidation. Our approach ensures secure, low‑disruption transitions while aligning technology with long‑term business and cloud strategy.

How do you minimize disruption during cloud migrations or M&A transitions?

We prioritize business continuity by combining careful planning, identity‑first security, and staged execution. By assessing dependencies, applying strong governance, and using secure migration patterns, we help organizations reduce downtime, protect data, and maintain productivity throughout complex transitions.

How are mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures different from standard migrations?

M&A and divestiture transitions involve shared systems, identities, and data that must be integrated or separated securely under tight timelines. Unlike standard migrations, these engagements require coordinated identity management, tenant strategy, and governance to ensure both organizations can operate independently or together without added risk.

When should organizations plan for post‑merger consolidation?

Post‑merger consolidation should begin as soon as initial integration or separation is complete. Consolidating cloud environments, identities, and productivity platforms helps reduce duplication, lower costs, simplify operations, and create a unified foundation that supports scalability, innovation, and AI initiatives.

What is data center migration and how does it work?

Data center migration is the process of moving IT systems, applications, and data from on-premises facilities into a cloud environment like Microsoft Azure. The process typically begins with a discovery and assessment phase to map dependencies, evaluate workload readiness, and identify risks. From there, a phased migration plan prioritizes workloads based on complexity and business criticality — starting with lower-risk moves and progressing to more complex application modernization. Concurrency’s data center migration approach combines secure execution with Azure landing zone best practices so organizations reduce tech debt, improve scalability, and establish a foundation for AI and modern applications.

What are the biggest data center migration risks and challenges?

The most common data center migration risks include unplanned downtime, data loss during transfer, security gaps introduced during transition, and application compatibility issues in the new environment. Organizations also face challenges around incomplete dependency mapping — where moving one workload unexpectedly impacts others — and underestimating the complexity of hybrid environments. Concurrency mitigates these risks through structured assessments, staged execution with rollback plans, and identity-first security controls that maintain governance throughout the migration process.

What is involved in an Office 365 tenant to tenant migration?

An Office 365 tenant to tenant migration moves email, OneDrive files, SharePoint sites, Teams data, and user identities from one Microsoft 365 tenant to another. This is common during mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures where organizations need to consolidate or separate environments. The process requires careful planning around identity mapping, domain transfers, permissions, and data integrity. Concurrency manages tenant to tenant migrations with minimal user disruption — coordinating cutover timing, preserving data, and ensuring security policies carry forward into the new environment.

Should you hire a cloud migration consultant?

Organizations should consider hiring a cloud migration consultant when they lack internal expertise in Azure architecture, need to minimize business disruption during migration, or face complex scenarios like hybrid environments, multi-tenant configurations, or regulatory compliance requirements. A consultant brings proven migration methodologies, tooling experience, and lessons learned from similar engagements — reducing the risk of costly mistakes and accelerating time to value. Concurrency’s cloud migration consultants combine deep Microsoft expertise with structured governance to help enterprises move confidently.

Medical Service Organization Replaces MSP with In-House IT Infrastructure

Concurrency built a custom, Azure-based in-house IT infrastructure to replace the organization’s paid third-party IT provider, a Managed Service Provider (MSP), which couldn’t scale with the organization’s rapid growth-based business model. The new infrastructure is malleable enough to evolve alongside the company’s needs, increasing efficiency and adding significant, long-term ROI.

Malissa Salzinger, an Account Executive at Concurrency, was able to complete Phase 2.1 of a large-scale merger between two Consumer Product Goods (CPG) advisors in half as much time as anticipated at the request of the clients. She did so by betting on her team’s ability to adapt to the new M&A deal timeline and tirelessly coordinating talent across companies, time zones, and even continents. The secret to her success? Malissa kept her eye on one critical metric throughout: Customer satisfaction. That meant reducing strain on existing employees, maintaining technical support, and otherwise ensuring the process was as painless as possible.
