Hello there, I will plan and execute your Google Workspace to Microsoft 365 migration — email, Drive to OneDrive/SharePoint, calendars, contacts, and permissions mapping — with a phased rollout and coexistence strategy to keep disruption near zero. For identity sync, I will configure Entra ID with staged directory synchronization so user access is validated before each wave cuts over — preventing Day 1 permission gaps. Questions: 1) How many users and approximate data volume are we migrating? 2) Are you using any third-party apps integrated with Google Workspace that need consideration? Looking forward to discussing further. Best regards, Kamran
