Meet face-to-face in your London office for workshops, planning sessions, and ongoing advisory — not just remote support.
Cloudswitched provides expert Azure consultancy for UK mining & resources. Our certified Azure architects assess your current infrastructure, design target-state environments for mine planning software, safety monitoring, and asset tracking, and create actionable migration and optimisation roadmaps. Every recommendation considers your HSE, environmental permits, and mining regulations obligations and budget constraints.
A clear, structured process from consultation to ongoing support.
Our consultants do not just advise — they build. Every recommendation comes from hands-on experience designing, deploying, and managing real Azure environments for UK businesses.
While we specialise in Azure, we provide honest assessments of when Azure is the right fit and when hybrid or alternative approaches would serve you better.
We document everything and train your team throughout the engagement. Our goal is to leave you capable, not dependent on ongoing consultancy.
Thorough review of your current infrastructure and mine planning software, safety monitoring, and asset tracking landscape, identifying opportunities to improve performance, reduce costs, and strengthen HSE, environmental permits, and mining regulations compliance.
A phased adoption plan tailored to your mining operation, prioritising quick wins whilst building towards a fully optimised Azure environment for extraction data, safety records, and equipment logs.
Detailed Azure cost projections based on your mining operation's specific workloads, ensuring accurate budgeting and avoiding the surprise bills that derail cloud projects.
Honest, independent advice on which Azure services genuinely benefit your mining operation and which are unnecessary, saving you from costly over-provisioning.
Certified Azure Solutions Architects with hands-on mining operation experience across the UK
Independent, vendor-neutral advice focused on what genuinely benefits your mining operation
Deep understanding of HSE, environmental permits, and mining regulations compliance and how Azure services map to regulatory requirements
Proven track record of reducing Azure costs by 20-40% through architecture optimisation
Workshop-based discovery sessions that engage your mining operation stakeholders from day one
Actionable roadmaps with clear milestones, not theoretical documents that gather dust

We begin with a discovery workshop to understand your mining operation operations, mine planning software, safety monitoring, and asset tracking requirements, and HSE, environmental permits, and mining regulations obligations. This is followed by an architecture assessment, cloud readiness evaluation, and a detailed roadmap with prioritised recommendations and cost projections.
A typical engagement for mining & resources runs between two and six weeks depending on complexity. Initial assessments can be completed within a fortnight, with detailed roadmaps and architecture designs following in subsequent weeks.
We specialise in Azure but provide honest guidance. If specific mining operation workloads are better suited elsewhere, we will tell you. Our goal is the right architecture for your mining operation, not selling Azure services you do not need.
Yes. HSE, environmental permits, and mining regulations compliance is central to our consultancy for mining & resources. We map regulatory requirements to Azure controls, identify gaps in your current posture, and recommend specific services and configurations to achieve and maintain compliance.
Our consultants hold Microsoft Azure Solutions Architect Expert and Azure Security Engineer certifications, combined with practical experience working with UK mining & resources. This blend of credentials and sector knowledge ensures actionable, realistic advice.
