CASE STUDY
Formed in 2020, Inigo specialises in a select range of high-risk, high-capacity insurance and reinsurance lines, exclusively through the broker intermediary market. Discover how we helped Inigo achieve a cloud-first architecture based on the Microsoft platform.
Following a key acquisition in 2021, Inigo needed to migrate users and IT assets from its Enstar Office 365 platform into a new tenant. This required a bespoke Microsoft 365 package, build from the group up to include Microsoft 365, Azure cloud and managed service architecture. Inigo was determined to achieve a best-practice, cloud-first architecture based on the Microsoft platform.

To support Inigo’s growth and business strategy, a fast and effective build was required – one causing minimal disruption to business operations within a nine-month timeframe. Inigo also needed to get from A to B as efficiently as possible, with clear end-user communication, adoption support and engagement.
Migrating and transitioning to a fully managed operational model within this deadline required careful and considered planning, design and configuration. Traditional hardware was not the answer. With the pandemic putting supply chains under considerable pressure, the project would have been impossible to complete on schedule.
At the inception of the company, Inigo also lacked the internal resource, so opted to source a partner capable of delivering change on this scale.
Inigo needed a business change partner that could lead its evolution, acting as a one-stop shop to ensure a seamless transition to a fully managed cloud environment. Advania’s experience in managing clients through divestiture projects and working with organisations within the financial services and insurance sector made it the partner of choice. Our extensive knowledge of Microsoft services and cloud technologies, as well as an understanding of the timelines and roadmaps to deploying services were essential.
Our approach aimed to reduce or eradicate risks, give the most efficient migration route and guide the IT strategy. Inigo’s people were at the heart of our planning – our business change experts worked with internal teams to ensure the reasons for change, as well as the benefits, were clear. Our flexibility meant we could easily correct our course where necessary and work in collaboration with Inigo.
We delivered an end-to-end solution with Microsoft 365 and Azure, aligning with the requirements of the build schedule and ongoing operating model. This included the following technologies and steps:

Following the completion of our GRC consultancy, The AA launched AA-X on both the Google Play and Apple App Store.
Should The AA require additional support for a major release of the app or for any other consultancy, Advania’s GRC Consultancy Team will be on hand again to act as an extension to its internal information security function.
