Case Study: Harris Pye Engineering Group achieves seamless global collaboration with Microsoft Azure and Office 365

Global engineering firm unifies operations with a single cloud office

Harris Pye Engineering Group, a global engineering firm specializing in the marine and oil and gas sectors, faced operational inefficiencies and workflow bottlenecks due to its outdated computing systems. To enable global collaboration and streamline management, the company turned to Microsoft Corporation, implementing solutions including Azure and Office 365 to unify its operations in the cloud.

The solution from Microsoft, deployed with partner Cloud9ers, involved a full migration to Azure virtual desktops. This provided the company with seamless global collaboration, high-performance computing for CAD and 3D rendering, and a vastly simplified IT infrastructure. The results included significant productivity and efficiency gains, the ability for employees to work from anywhere, and the capacity to open new global offices in days instead of months.
