Services for BlackBerry UEM and Intune

Each service has a defined scope, a written outcome and a completion date. You know in advance what you will receive, and your team can continue working with it even if someone else later handles implementation.

A second opinion without a product interest

I do not sell licences, operations or hosting. My recommendation therefore does not depend on which product, licence agreement or operations contract follows. This also makes my services useful to IT service providers and partners: a concept I review or write remains your concept.

If the best answer is “do not migrate yet” or “use the existing licence differently”, that is exactly what I write, with the reasoning.

01 / Architecture

BlackBerry UEM architecture check

An upgrade or expansion is coming up, or something is not working and nobody can pinpoint where.

You learn which assumptions underpin your environment, where dependencies are unclear and where users, administration or security lose out unnecessarily. This is the right starting point when an upgrade, expansion or change of direction is coming up, or when “something is not working” and nobody can pinpoint where.

Who it is for
Architects and IT leaders with an existing BlackBerry UEM environment
What you receive
  • an annotated overview of the architecture and its dependencies
  • prioritised findings with reasoning and consequences
  • specific next steps in a practical order
Scope
2 days, fixed price following a short intro call. One defined environment, up to three agreed use cases, an intro call and a results discussion.
What I need
Architecture documents or exports of the relevant settings, and a contact for follow-up questions
Not included
Changes to your environment and ongoing operations. A check is an assessment, not a certification.

02 / Security

Security & policy review

Internal audit, data protection or an auditor is asking whether your policies really provide protection.

You see whether policies, profiles and data paths actually meet the agreed protection requirements. I compare requirements, settings and actual effects, and explain trade-offs between protection and usability openly.

Who it is for
Security leads, UEM administrators, data protection and internal audit teams
What you receive
  • a matrix mapping protection requirements to settings
  • findings with risk implications and recommendations
  • a test plan your team can use to verify the effects independently
Scope
3 days, fixed price following a short intro call. One predefined policy or access scenario, for example email access, internal web apps or data transfers on iOS.
What I need
Your protection requirements or policy requirements, and exports of the affected policies and profiles
Not included
formal audit, penetration testing, certification

03 / Decision

BlackBerry, Intune or both?

The platform decision is on the table: keep it running, switch or combine.

You receive a reasoned decision between continued operation, switching and combining platforms, based on your applications, data paths, identities and operational requirements. I assess every option against the same criteria and state the condition under which the recommendation would change.

Who it is for
IT leaders, enterprise architects and project leads facing a platform decision
What you receive
  • a prepared remote workshop on goals and criteria
  • an options matrix with counterarguments
  • a recommendation with conditions and a list of evidence still missing before the decision
Scope
1–3 days, fixed price following a short intro call
What I need
Details from you on business-critical applications and user groups, existing licences and their terms
Not included
licence sales, vendor proposals, implementation

04 / Installation & migration

Installation and migration strategy

A platform needs to be set up, or a switch is coming up and needs a plan.

I carry out the initial installation of your UEM platform together with your team, documenting it so you can operate it yourselves afterwards. If the new platform replaces an existing one, I first develop the migration strategy where needed: which functions are missing at the destination, which dependencies constrain the switch and how you recognise a successful pilot.

Who it is for
Teams introducing BlackBerry UEM or Microsoft Intune or switching between UEM platforms, and implementation partners
What you receive
  • an installed base environment with documentation
  • a handover to your operations team
  • where needed, a migration strategy covering functional gaps, dependencies, pilot and wave criteria and a Go/No-Go decision
Scope
Installation takes 2–4 days, depending on the environment and functionality, such as Single Sign-on. Fixed price following a short intro call. The migration strategy covers 3 days for a defined migration path.
What I need
Access to the target environment and its prerequisites, contacts for networking and identity, and, for a switch, an inventory of the existing platform
Not included
ongoing operations, operation of a migration tool, automated device migration

05 / Concepts

Device management concept & ghostwriting

A device management concept needs to be completed for your organisation, a tender or your client.

I structure and write comprehensive device management concepts. I draw on experience from large client projects with up to 65,000 devices using BlackBerry UEM and MS Intune. I have developed these concepts both for projects I managed myself and on several occasions as a ghostwriter for other consultants.

On request, I also review an existing draft, for example an AI-generated concept, for incorrect assumptions, mixed versions and unsupported security promises.

Who it is for
Consultants and IT service providers, architecture teams and those responsible for tenders
What you receive
  • an agreed outline
  • completed chapters with a list of assumptions and sources
  • one feedback round per section
Scope
In sections of 5 days, with a fixed price per section following a short intro call. A complete concept is developed over several agreed sections.
What I need
Requirements, constraints, existing documents and a contact for subject-matter decisions
Responsibility
The concept is issued under your name and your responsibility. Confidentiality is standard.

06 / Training

Technical training in your environment

Your team needs to understand the environment as well as operate it.

Your team understands how the components work together and can explain decisions and failure patterns themselves. I teach using your architecture rather than a textbook scenario.

Who it is for
UEM administrators, new architects, security and operations teams
What you receive
  • agreed learning goals
  • a system map of your environment
  • exercises in a suitable test environment and a short list for applying the learning
Scope
1–4 days remotely, no more than 6 participants, two modules per day. Preparation is listed separately in the proposal.
What I need
Participants’ prior knowledge and access to a test or lab environment

How we start working together

You briefly describe your environment and your goal. In a free intro call of around 10 minutes, we establish which service fits and which documents I need. You then receive a fixed price proposal with scope, outcome and timing.

What happens if the review reveals more than agreed?

I tell you before continuing. Any additional scope is agreed only with your consent.

Do you also work on site?

The services are designed for remote delivery. On-site appointments are possible by agreement.

Let us discuss your plans.

Whether you need architecture advice, further development of your UEM environment, training or a comprehensive technical concept: briefly describe your environment and your goal.
