A New Era in Microsoft 365 with GovCon Accelerator™

```html

Innovative Solution for Microsoft 365

ESW (eSoftware Associates), as an experienced Microsoft partner providing secure collaboration, Intune, and Power Platform services, today announced the introduction of a modular framework called GovCon Accelerator™. This framework enables government contractors to securely and compliantly deploy Microsoft 365 in GCC High environments.

Insights from the Real World

GovCon Accelerator™ encompasses experiences gained from real projects carried out in the defense and government sectors. This framework offers a compliance architecture that conforms to key federal requirements such as FedRAMP High, DFARS 7012, ITAR, and CMMC 2.0, providing contractors with both compliance and agility.

Bridging the Technology Gap

Contractors seeking modernization face certain challenges in Microsoft's GCC High environment. These challenges include data segregation, identity constraints, and data boundary controls. Features common in commercial Microsoft 365 offerings may behave differently or require specialized solutions in the GCC High environment.

Components of GovCon Accelerator™

GovCon Accelerator™ consists of modules targeting core areas of Microsoft 365 in government settings:

Core Tenant Blueprint — identity architecture, Entra ID modeling, basic FedRAMP controls
Endpoint Management — compliance monitoring with Intune, drift detection, device grouping
Collaboration Layer — secure SharePoint site designs, permission models, metadata management
Workflow & Automation — Power Platform patterns developed for restricted government environments
Governance & Security — policy frameworks, change controls, access reviews
Operations & Monitoring — runbooks, dashboards, health checks

Success in Live Projects

ESW has successfully implemented specific components of GovCon Accelerator™ in real government-related projects. By migrating a 5 TB SharePoint environment to GCC High, they preserved data integrity and access permissions, while providing standard device enrollment for over 800 devices using Windows Autopilot and Intune. These implementations have offered opportunities to explore the innovations of the framework and enhance security measures.

Why is it Important?

GovCon Accelerator™ holds a significant position as one of the few offerings that encode GCC High, DFARS, ITAR, and CMMC requirements. With this framework, contractors can express their operational maturity and compliance readiness more robustly in their proposals.
