From first call to handover

Every engagement follows the same four steps, so you know what happens next before you ever sign anything.

  1. 01

    Start with a free 30-minute call

    We talk through your environment, what is driving the project, and whether we are the right fit. No pitch deck, no obligation.

  2. 02

    Get a fixed-scope proposal

    A written statement of work with the deliverables, the timeline, and the price. You approve it before any work starts, and the price does not move.

  3. 03

    Senior-led delivery

    The architect who scoped the engagement does the work, with regular check-ins so you always know where things stand.

  4. 04

    Handover, not lock-in

    Every engagement ends with documentation, runbooks, and a walkthrough. Your team can run what we built, with or without us.

Enterprise expertise.
Right-sized for you.

10+ years working inside complex Microsoft environments, now applied directly to businesses that need senior-level cloud architecture but cannot justify a full-time hire.

4

Active Microsoft expert-level certifications

AZ-305, AZ-500, SC-100, AZ-104, all current. Deep Microsoft specialization, not generalist IT consulting.

10+

Years in enterprise Microsoft cloud environments

Real-world experience across migrations, security architecture, identity, SIEM, and hybrid networking at enterprise scale.

Fixed

Scoped projects, clear deliverables

No surprises, no scope creep, no open-ended billing. You know exactly what you are getting before we start.

100%

Senior-delivered, end to end

The architect who scopes your engagement is the one who delivers it. No account layers, no handoff to a junior bench.

Who we work with

We focus on Microsoft-heavy businesses where security and compliance pressure is real. Typically 10 to a few hundred staff, with an IT generalist or an MSP but no in-house cloud architect.

Professional services

Consultancies and agencies where the whole business runs on Microsoft 365 and client data is the product. Identity hardening, DLP, and a defensible security posture for client due-diligence questionnaires.

Legal

Firms with confidentiality obligations and matter-level access needs. Conditional Access, sensitivity labels, and audit logging that stands up to a client security review or bar requirement.

Financial services

RIAs, accounting firms, and lenders under SEC, FINRA, GLBA, or state pressure. Compliance-mapped remediation, MFA and privileged access, and evidence an examiner or auditor will accept.

Light manufacturing & operations

Businesses moving off aging on-premises servers with a lean IT team. Azure migration, landing-zone structure, and identity that covers shop-floor and office staff alike.

Denver, Colorado, and remote across the US

KLM Cloud Services is based in Denver and serves the Colorado Front Range on-site, including Boulder, Fort Collins, Colorado Springs, and the north metro. Everything we do, from assessments to Entra ID and Microsoft 365 work to Azure builds, is delivered remotely for clients anywhere in the United States.

Frequently asked questions

What is a cloud security assessment?

A fixed-scope, two-week review of your Microsoft cloud security posture across Entra ID, Microsoft 365 Defender, Conditional Access, and Azure workloads. It produces a scored report and a prioritized remediation roadmap you can act on with any provider.

What do you actually do?

Three things. Microsoft cloud security and architecture (assessments, Defender and Purview, Entra ID and Zero Trust, Sentinel, Azure landing zones, migration). AI engineering on cloud-hosted frontier models (retrieval, copilots, document automation, agents). And the on-premises office network it all runs on: switching, wireless, and firewalls.

Do you only work with businesses in Denver?

No. We are based in Denver, Colorado and work on-site across the Front Range, and remotely with clients across the United States.

What size of business do you work with?

Small and growing businesses on Microsoft that need senior Azure, Microsoft 365, and Entra ID expertise but do not have, or need, a full-time cloud architect.
