Case Study: International law firm BCLP consolidates AD domains, boosts user productivity and cuts IT workload with Quest

Improving user productivity and slashing IT workload through Active Directory migration

A newly formed international law firm (1,200 employees) faced fragmented IT after merging two practices that left them operating two complex Active Directory domains and separate Exchange environments. This created security and administration headaches—multiple admin accounts and trusts, frequent access problems, increased support overhead and rising costs—so the firm prioritized consolidating into a single domain to simplify management and improve user access.

Working with Quest Professional Services and partner Kraft Kennedy, the firm used On Demand Migration and Migrator Pro for Active Directory and Exchange to consolidate 4,000 AD users and 13,000 mailboxes into a greenfield domain in six months. The migration was seamless for users, reduced IT workload, lowered security risk and costs, simplified workflows, and even boosted internal staff skills and confidence for future projects.
