Objective

Establish tenant-wide readiness and governance controls before assigning platform policies at scale.

Baseline setup steps

1. Confirm tenant roles, role-based access control, and operational ownership.
2. Define group structure for users, devices, and environment segmentation.
3. Configure naming standards and policy documentation format.
4. Build baseline policy rings for pilot, pre-production, and production.
5. Set compliance policy settings to align with Conditional Access intent.

Governance controls

Control area	Baseline recommendation
RBAC (role-based access control)	Least privilege with scoped admin boundaries
Scope tags	Distributed administration model where needed
Group strategy	Clear separation of user and device assignment groups
Change management	Versioned policy change logs and approval flow

Readiness checklist

• Group and assignment design approved.
• Pilot rings and success criteria documented.
• Support and escalation paths agreed.
• Reporting baseline dashboards identified.
