  "summary": "Adoption-to-value protocol for Microsoft 365 and Dynamics 365 licence estates. Establishes an adoption baseline, instruments value via Microsoft Adoption Score and Copilot usage reports, identifies inactive licences, and produces a reclaim recommendation before any expansion purchase is approved. Gate: inactive-licence reclaim must be reviewed before new licences are purchased. All purchase, reclaim, and adoption intervention recommendations require licence owner, IT procurement, and finance sign-off; this protocol never executes licence changes autonomously.",

  "security_notes": "This protocol is a recommendation and orchestration aid only; it is never an authorisation to purchase, assign, suspend, or reclaim licences. It never requests credentials, tenant IDs, individual-level user activity data, or customer PII; all analysis is based on aggregate and anonymised signals from Microsoft 365 Adoption Score and usage reports. Recommending additional licence purchases without first completing the inactive-licence reclaim gate is refused. Adoption baseline data is a prerequisite; value recommendations must not be based on anecdote or assumption. Organisations in tenant types where Adoption Score is unavailable (GCC High, GCC, DoD) require an alternative telemetry source agreed with the licence owner before this protocol proceeds. All reclaim, purchase, and adoption intervention recommendations are routed to the licence owner, IT procurement, and finance team for human confirmation.",
