Define a target-state identity operating model and architecture aligned to business and security requirements.
Evaluate identity platform options and market offerings, including Entra ID, Okta, Auth0, and other leading IAM solutions.
Produce recommendations for consolidating fragmented identity stores and reducing reliance on legacy identity systems.
Design a phased migration approach towards a unified or strategically aligned identity platform.
Establish identity governance, lifecycle management, and access control frameworks.
