The challenge
A large midstream energy company runs its operations from hundreds of remote field sites with limited bandwidth. Its 10,000 laptops were still managed with on-premises tools, so every update meant thousands of manual steps and visits from technicians. Recovering a laptop after a ransomware attack meant sending someone on site, and the company needed a secure foundation before it could adopt AI.
What we did
Invoke built a cloud-managed foundation on the Microsoft 365 E3 licensing the company already owned:
- Microsoft Intune now manages every laptop from the cloud, replacing the on-premises tools.
- Windows Autopilot sets up new and rebuilt laptops with zero touch.
- Microsoft Entra ID gives every user Zero Trust access.
- OneDrive protects files, and laptops can recover from a clean image over the internet instead of waiting for a technician.
What’s next
With devices, identities and files managed in the cloud, the company has the secure foundation to roll out Microsoft 365 Copilot and AI agents.
