100% Microsoft 365
A modern workplace is not a collection of isolated Intune profiles. Identity, device compliance, Conditional Access, applications, updates and endpoint security must work as one management chain. PEXOR designs that chain for scale and control.

In short
Not the number of policies, but a consistent architecture: baselines, target groups, compliance criteria, exceptions, deployment rings, monitoring and ownership. This makes the workplace predictable for users and governable for IT and security.
For decision-makers and platform teams
Endpoint architecture
Intune becomes difficult to manage when profiles, scripts, apps and exceptions are added without a coherent architecture.
PEXOR uses a layered model: platform baseline, security baseline, persona or target-group configuration, and explicit exceptions. This makes the purpose and audience of settings traceable.
Naming, assignments, filters, scope tags and change control are part of the design rather than administrative clean-up.
Compliance & access
Intune can evaluate device compliance. Microsoft Entra Conditional Access can then use that status as a signal for access to Microsoft 365 and other resources.
This creates a strong link between endpoint management and identity security, but poor compliance design can also directly affect productivity.
PEXOR therefore treats compliance as a business-critical control with pilots, observability, exception paths and incident procedures.
Provisioning & applications
A modern workplace only scales when onboarding and applications behave predictably without manual repair.
Device registration, enrolment, configuration, applications, dependencies and user context need to be tested as one chain.
PEXOR uses deployment rings and pilot groups to introduce change in a controlled way with explicit promotion criteria.
Day-2 operations
After implementation, Windows releases, security signals, app updates and Microsoft 365 changes continue to alter the environment.
Release management, monitoring, incident analysis, policy drift and periodic review therefore belong in the initial design.
A good endpoint platform reduces dependency on individual administrators because standards, runbooks and decision criteria are transferable.
