What Microsoft Copilot actually does.
Microsoft Copilot uses AI inside tools your staff already use – Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel, SharePoint and more – to summarise information, draft content, analyse data, and automate everyday tasks. When deployed correctly, it saves time and improves consistency.
Why Copilot needs managed deployment.
Copilot works based on the existing permissions, data and policies within your Microsoft tenant. If those foundations aren’t right, Copilot will simply amplify problems and gaps.
Expertly managed deployment ensures Copilot:
- Accesses appropriate files, emails and SharePoint content.
- Respects role-based permissions and security boundaries.
- Aligns with your processes and data governance.
Our Microsoft Copilot approach.
We don’t just “turn Copilot on”. We prepare your environment so that Copilot works safely and effectively from day one.
Our deployment includes:

- Review of SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive and email permissions.
- Security, identity and access alignment.
- Copilot configuration and licensing guidance.
- Controlled rollout across teams or departments.
- Governance and usage recommendations.
Work faster inside Microsoft 365 with expertly deployed AI that understands your business and teams.
Frequently asked questions.
Why does Copilot need managed deployment rather than just licensing?
Copilot relies on your existing permissions and data structure. If SharePoint, Teams or Outlook access isn’t well governed, Copilot will expose those weaknesses faster. Deployment ensures Copilot works safely, and as intended across your organisation.
Does Copilot use our business data to train public AI models?
No. Microsoft Copilot does not use your organisation’s data to train public AI models. Deployment ensures this is clearly understood and supported by correct configuration and policy.
Can Copilot access confidential or sensitive information?
Copilot can only access data a user already has permission to see – but many businesses have overly broad or poorly managed access in Microsoft 365. Podcom reviews these foundations before Copilot is rolled out.
What happens after Copilot is deployed?
Copilot is not a “set and forget” tool. Ongoing governance, usage guidance and permission reviews are essential as your data and teams evolve. Podcom can support Copilot as part of your managed IT and cyber security packages.
Is Copilot suitable for all staff?
Not always. Some roles benefit immediately, while others require tighter controls. We help you decide where Copilot adds value, and where it should be limited or delayed.
Which AI tool should our business choose?
There is no single “best” AI tool. The right approach depends on:
- Where your data lives.
- How your staff work.
- Your security and compliance requirements.
