Google Workspace: Workspace Setup & Configuration

Getting Google Workspace set up correctly the first time saves a lot of cleanup later.

About This Service

Getting Google Workspace set up correctly the first time saves a lot of cleanup later. System Strats handles domain verification, DNS and email authentication records (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), organizational units, group structures, and the admin console configuration that most businesses never touch but absolutely should.

How We Help

Properly configured DNS, MX, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records

Organizational units structured for role-based access

Group and alias setup for clean email routing

Admin console policies that match how your team actually works

Our Process

1

Assessment

We audit the current Workspace setup, security posture, email health, and Shared Drive sprawl, and identify the highest-impact issues.

2

Architecture & Policy Design

We design the OU structure, Shared Drive model, and security policies that match how your teams work and where your sensitive data lives.

3

Implementation & Migration

We configure the admin console, clean up existing structures, migrate data where needed, and verify everything end to end before handing off.

4

Training & Ongoing Admin

We train your team on what changed, document the new setup, and stay involved for ongoing admin, policy updates, and the migrations nobody internal has time to run.

Why Choose System Strats

We have run Workspace admin across businesses of every shape, from 5-person teams to multi-entity organizations with sensitive data. We know the quirks of the admin console, and we know which defaults are fine and which are quietly hurting you. We focus on the changes that make a real difference, not long compliance reports nobody reads.
