Microsoft Teams without the sprawl.
340 channels. Nobody knows which ones are active. Sensitive content in workspaces nobody owns. That's what ungoverned Teams looks like at scale. iWorkplace Teams fixes it before it becomes a problem.

Change & Adoption
Teams sprawl isn't an IT problem. It's a governance problem.
Microsoft Teams makes it easy to create a workspace. Too easy. Projects end, people leave, workspaces accumulate. Sensitive content sits in channels nobody monitors. Permissions nobody remembers setting. Retention policies applied nowhere. Copilot doesn't filter by what's current, it surfaces everything it can see.
What our clients say.

“Information Leadership helped us transform information management by empowering our people and building capability across the organisation.”
How it works.
Governed creation from day one
Every new Team provisioned from a template with the right structure, metadata and access controls applied automatically. No ad hoc creation. No governance added later.
Existing Teams brought under control
Current channels assessed, classified and rationalised. Active workspaces governed. Inactive ones retired. The environment cleaned up without losing what matters.
Lifecycle management
Teams aligned to business purposes with clear lifecycle rules. Content doesn't accumulate indefinitely. workspaces are created, maintained and retired on a defined schedule.
Discoverability without overwhelm
Staff find the right workspace without wading through hundreds of channels. Smart search and navigation built in. Collaboration happens in the right place.
What changes
IT stops firefighting
Governed creation means fewer tickets, fewer exceptions, fewer requests to clean up workspaces nobody owns. IT gets time back.
Sensitive content stays protected
Controlled access and separation built in from creation. Sensitive content doesn't end up in workspaces it was never meant for.
Copilot stays within bounds
When Teams is governed properly AI accesses structured, classified not content.
Compliance is automatic
Naming conventions, metadata and retention policies enforced from day one. The audit trail exists without anyone having to create it.
What it looks like
