Microsoft Copilot Adoption Accelerator

Are you looking for a way to accelerate the adoption of Microsoft Copilot, the AI-powered assistant that helps you write documents and reports and generate code faster and smarter?

Do you want to leverage the power of Copilot to transform your development processes and workflows, while ensuring compliance and security of your data and code?

If so, the Copilot Adoption Accelerator is the perfect solution for you.

The Copilot Adoption Accelerator is a pilot engagement that helps you design, implement, and evaluate the use of Copilot in your organisation.

The engagement is tailored for large to very large enterprises, including government and private organisations, that have complex and diverse development needs and challenges.

The engagement consists of the following components:

• Use case development and refinement: A dedicated change management team will work with you to identify and prioritize the most suitable and impactful use cases for Copilot in your organization. The team will also help you define the success criteria and metrics for each use case and provide guidance and best practices on how to integrate Copilot into your existing development tools and platforms.

• Centre of Excellence development: A Centre of Excellence (CoE) is a group of experts and champions within your organization that will act as the focal point for Copilot adoption and support. The CoE will be responsible for promoting and evangelizing Copilot, providing training and mentoring to other developers, collecting feedback and insights, and resolving issues and challenges. The engagement will help you set up and empower the CoE and provide them with the necessary resources and skills to drive Copilot adoption.

• Rollout of an adoption champions program: An adoption champions program is a network of early adopters and influencers that will help spread the word and demonstrate the value of Copilot across your organization. The adoption champions will be selected from different teams and departments and will receive special training and recognition for their role. The engagement will help you launch and manage the adoption champions program and provide them with the necessary tools and incentives to foster further adoption and assist Copilot rollout.

• Microsoft Purview content search and information protection: Microsoft Purview is a unified data governance service that helps you discover, catalogue, and protect your data across your organization. Purview can help you ensure that your data and code are compliant and secure, especially when using Copilot, which leverages public and private data sources to generate writing and code suggestions. The engagement will help you use Purview to search and classify your data and code, apply sensitivity labels and policies, and monitor and audit Copilot activity.

• SharePoint restrictions and site allow list: SharePoint is a cloud-based collaboration platform that enables you to store, share, and manage your files and documents. SharePoint can help you control and restrict the access and sharing of your data and code, especially when using Copilot, which can access and modify your files and documents based on your permissions and preferences. The engagement will help you use SharePoint to set up restrictions and site allow lists and ensure that only authorised users can return sensitive data from SharePoint through Copilot.

The outcomes of the engagement are: • A Centre of Excellence: A group of experts and champions that will lead and support Copilot adoption in your organization. • An adoption champions program: A network of early adopters and influencers that will help spread the word and demonstrate the value of Copilot across your organization. • A Microsoft Purview sensitivity labelling system: A data governance system that will help you discover, catalogue, and protect your data and code when using Copilot. • A SharePoint restrictions and site allow list: A collaboration platform that will help you control and restrict the access and sharing of your data and code when using Copilot. • A roadmap for continued rollout and adoption: A plan and timeline that will help you scale and sustain Copilot adoption in your organization.

The duration of the engagement is 4-to-6 weeks. This engagement is eligible to relevant organisations under Microsoft FastTrack criteria. The engagement requires the participation and commitment of key stakeholders, sponsors, and leaders from your organisation, as well as a minimum of 10 developers who will act as pilot users of Copilot. The engagement will be delivered remotely, using online tools and platforms, and will follow an agile and iterative approach.
