Specialist support for complex IT environments

Enterprise technology rarely starts with a clean slate. Established systems, business-critical applications and hybrid infrastructure all need careful consideration when making changes.

LSK Solutions combines deep messaging expertise with hands-on infrastructure experience. We help you understand dependencies, choose a practical approach and deliver changes with clear documentation and meaningful validation.

Whether you are modernising Exchange, moving workloads into Microsoft 365 or finding a future for legacy Notes and Domino applications, we bring technical depth and straightforward advice.

Services

How we can help

01

Microsoft 365 and Exchange

Plan, modernise and support enterprise messaging across on-premises, hybrid and cloud environments.

Our work includes:

  • Exchange Server upgrades, including Subscription Edition.
  • Exchange Online migrations and hybrid connectivity.
  • Outlook configuration and messaging troubleshooting.
  • Mail flow, connectors and application email integration.
  • Calendar sharing and cross-tenant collaboration.
  • Reviewing application dependencies and preparing for Microsoft 365 service changes.
02

HCL Notes and Domino modernisation

Make informed decisions about the future of your Notes and Domino environment.

We help organisations assess existing platforms, understand application dependencies and plan suitable migration or modernisation paths. Where Domino remains part of the environment, we also support integration and messaging troubleshooting.

Our work includes:

  • Notes and Domino environment assessment.
  • Legacy application discovery and migration planning.
  • Messaging coexistence and integration with Exchange and Microsoft 365.
  • SMTP routing and mail delivery troubleshooting.
  • Technical planning for phased transitions.
03

Active Directory and supporting infrastructure

Build and validate the identity infrastructure that enterprise services depend on.

We support domain controller deployment and operational troubleshooting, with particular attention to distributed environments where DNS, replication and network connectivity must work together reliably.

Our work includes:

  • Read-only and writable domain controller deployment.
  • DNS and Active Directory replication troubleshooting.
  • Firewall dependency investigation.
  • Deployment validation and health assessment.
  • Inventory reconciliation and build documentation.
04

PowerShell automation and reporting

Replace repetitive administration with practical, maintainable tools.

We develop PowerShell automation that helps technical teams collect evidence, check configuration and understand the current state of their environments.

Our work includes:

  • Configuration and inventory collection.
  • Automated deployment and health validation.
  • Consolidated HTML reporting.
  • Filtering and drill-down views for technical findings.
  • Clear separation of current issues from historical events.
  • Documentation and handover for ongoing use.
05

Cloud migration and collaboration

Plan transitions around your organisation’s existing systems and business requirements.

We help clients assess migration dependencies, define a workable delivery approach and support the move between legacy, on-premises and cloud platforms.

Our work includes:

  • Migration readiness and dependency assessment.
  • On-premises-to-cloud and cloud-to-cloud migration planning.
  • Microsoft 365 messaging and collaboration guidance.
  • Outlook, Teams and Copilot readiness considerations.
  • Technical workstream coordination and operational handover.
06

AI-assisted development & automation

Explore practical ways to use AI to develop tools, prototype ideas and simplify repetitive technical work.

AI-assisted coding, sometimes called “vibe coding”, can help turn an initial idea into a working prototype. Clear requirements, human review and relevant testing help establish whether the result is suitable for its intended use.

Potential applications include:

  • Rapid prototypes and proof-of-concept applications.
  • Internal tools and workflow automation.
  • AI-assisted scripting, reporting and documentation.
  • Reviewing generated code and validating behaviour.
  • Assessing data handling, access controls and maintainability.
  • Documenting limitations and planning operational handover.

01

Understand the environment

We start with your current systems, business requirements and technical dependencies. This gives the work a clear scope and helps identify constraints early.

02

Plan a practical route

We explain the available options, highlight material risks and agree a delivery approach suited to your environment.

03

Implement and validate

We carry out the technical work and use relevant checks to establish whether the resulting configuration is operating as intended.

04

Document and hand over

We provide clear findings, configuration records and practical guidance so your team can support the environment after the engagement.
