Microsoft pricing update lands June 2026 — here’s how we’ll guide you

Vendor pricing moves are a fact of life, but they don't have to catch your business off-guard. Microsoft has signalled adjustments to the 365 stack effective June 2026, spanning licensing tiers, commitment terms and how add-ons (especially around AI and security) are bundled.

What is likely to change

• Plan mix — the gap between Business and Enterprise SKUs is widening; some clients will save by switching tiers, others by consolidating.
• Commitment terms — annual vs monthly pricing deltas are growing. Locking in too early, or too late, both have a cost.
• AI & Copilot add-ons — pricing and packaging are being reshuffled; we're mapping which roles in your business actually benefit.
• Security & compliance — E5 components are being re-bundled. We'll show you whether standalone add-ons beat a tier upgrade for your footprint.

What MVT is doing for every client

Between now and the change, our Microsoft practice is running a structured review on every tenant we manage:

• Tenant audit — actual usage per user vs licensed entitlements, including dormant and over-licensed accounts.
• Renewal calendar — every commitment plotted against the June 2026 line so nothing renews on the wrong side of it.
• Scenario modelling — side-by-side cost projections across plan mixes, terms and add-on bundles.
• Recommendation pack — a short, signed-off plan with the licensing changes we'll execute on your behalf.

What you can do today

• Hold on signing any long-dated Microsoft commitments without an MVT review.
• Share any headcount or restructure plans for 2026 — they materially change the optimal plan mix.
• Flag any Copilot, security or compliance ambitions so we factor them into your recommendation pack.

We'll be in touch directly with each client to schedule the review. If you'd like to bring it forward, reach out to your account team.
