The organisation is focused on developing solutions to simplify the vast amounts of complex data and processes within the utilities and energy industry. It provides innovative software and delivers ongoing support services, helping customers navigate these challenges and facilitating a rapid transition to a more sustainable future.

Correla plans to streamline the energy market, promote digital connectivity, and accelerate the UK's decarbonisation efforts.

To achieve this goal, Nasstar conducted a project to migrate Correla's legacy infrastructure from private cloud to Azure public cloud giving it the flexibility and agility to grow and operate with greater efficiency as the company dynamically builds its new business model.

The challenges

InMarch2021,CorrelawasformedfromXoserveasanindependentlyownedbusinesstoallowprivateinvestmenttodrivechangethroughinnovationwithinthegasandwiderenergymarket.

Nasstar's engagement with the original Xoserve company dates back 5+ years as its provider of choice for Desktop Managed Services, supporting employee experience across the organisation.

This separation into two companies is the next step in Correla's formation as an independent entity within the technology and data services sector, supporting innovation in the gas market and beyond. Simultaneously, Xoserve restructured into a specialised contract management and assurance company.

Our goal

CompletetheITInfrastructureSeparationProject.

Before the separation project undertaken by Nasstar, both entities shared the same IT infrastructure and M365 tenant. Nasstar's migration project successfully enabled each business to function autonomously, operating with distinct business processes.

The IT infrastructure separation

This has allowed Correla to operate independently enabling the organisation to focus on specific goals without shared infrastructure limitations.

Increased security

The migration of SIEM services to the newly created tenant included additional layers of managed, maintained, and audited security hardening by Nasstar to further enhance the security.

Support and consultation

Nasstar’s expertise and project management provided Correla with what it needed when it was needed, ensuring the smooth and efficient delivery of the project. 

Data management and migration process

Nasstar’s expertise in this domain resulted in limited disruptions to day-to-day business.

Tailored services

Nasstar created and delivered a bespoke project plan that offered flexibility and a responsive team. This approach ensured that the migration was carried out efficiently and that Correla had access to the relevant expertise when needed.

To ensure all requirements were clearly understood and data protection procedures were in place, Nasstar engaged in a thorough consultation process before the project began. This allowed Nasstar to gain a deep understanding of the organisation’s goals while providing clear expectations for the project’s scope and delivery.
