“We evaluated five vendors before choosing PapaSiddhi. Their Business Central expertise was unmatched — went live across three countries simultaneously with zero downtime.”

PapaSiddhi Technologies is a team of experienced Microsoft SharePoint development experts with 10+ years of experience building intranets, document management systems, team portals, and automated workflows for companies across the USA, UK, Netherlands, and UAE. Our SharePoint developers cover the full spectrum — from SharePoint Online modern sites to classic SharePoint on-premises, from Power Automate workflow automation to custom SPFx web parts and Power Apps integration.
Custom SharePoint intranets, document portals, team sites, and workflow automation built on SharePoint Online and SharePoint on-premises for organisations of all sizes. Serving UK businesses with India-based expertise.
UK organisations use SharePoint for a narrower and more regulated set of jobs than most markets: NHS trusts and their suppliers are assessed against the Data Security and Protection Toolkit, and public sector bodies carry statutory records retention duties that a default document library does not satisfy. That gap between what SharePoint does out of the box and what a UK compliance officer needs is where most of our work sits — retention labels, sensitivity classification, auditable approval workflows and controlled external sharing. Our team's working day covers the UK morning, which is when most governance questions actually surface. We build UK SharePoint with data residency in the UK South and UK West Azure regions confirmed in advance where residency matters to your assurance process.
Microsoft 365 offers the United Kingdom as a data residency location, with SharePoint and OneDrive content stored in the UK South and UK West Azure regions for tenants provisioned there — a common requirement in NHS and public sector assurance questionnaires.
UK GDPR, NHS Data Security and Protection Toolkit for health sector suppliers, and Public Records Act retention duties for public bodies. Cyber Essentials is frequently a contractual requirement in UK public procurement.
Market Landscape
SharePoint in the UK is rarely a fresh start. Almost every British organisation we work with already has a tenant, several years of accumulated sites, and a shared drive migration that was half completed at some point and then abandoned. The request is usually remedial: consolidate what exists, make search return something useful, and impose enough structure that people stop emailing documents to each other. Construction firms, housing associations, legal practices and professional services businesses across Britain all arrive at the same place by different routes.
Key Challenges
The difficulty is that SharePoint problems in UK organisations are organisational as much as technical. Permissions have usually been granted ad hoc for years until nobody can say with confidence who can see what — an uncomfortable position for a British business handling client confidential material or personal data. Site sprawl means the same document exists in four places with no authoritative version. And because the out-of-the-box experience does not match how a specific UK firm actually works, staff quietly revert to Teams chat and local folders, which undoes the point of the platform entirely.
Why India Works
Our approach with British clients is to treat information architecture and permissions as the project rather than as preliminaries, then build only the custom components that genuinely earn their place. We have delivered SharePoint intranet and document platforms for enterprise clients and can apply the same patterns to a UK estate. The 9am to 1:30pm UK overlap is well suited to this work because it depends on frequent short conversations with the people who own the content, and at a fraction of £80 to £120 UK consultancy rates a British organisation can afford to do the governance properly instead of just moving files.
Years of ad hoc sharing leave UK organisations unable to state confidently who has access to sensitive material. For British firms handling client confidential information or personal data, that uncertainty becomes a real problem the moment anyone asks.
Most British organisations have moved some content to SharePoint and left the rest on a network drive, so staff have to check both. The split undermines trust in the platform and guarantees that the old drive never actually gets retired.
When SharePoint does not fit how a UK team actually works, people revert to emailing attachments and saving locally. Adoption failure is usually mistaken for a training problem when it is really an information architecture problem.
We treat structure, search and permissions as the substance of a UK SharePoint engagement rather than as groundwork, and build custom components only where the out-of-the-box experience genuinely fails the business. The 9am to 1:30pm UK overlap suits the frequent short conversations this work needs, and our rates against UK consultancy equivalents mean governance gets done properly rather than deferred.
Ask us to audit your UK SharePoint estate and tell you plainly which sites to keep, merge or retire.

Years Experience
SharePoint is the backbone of Microsoft 365 collaboration — but an out-of-the-box SharePoint rarely meets all your needs. Organisations need custom intranet portals, tailored document libraries, branded team sites, and automated approval workflows that fit their exact processes.
PapaSiddhi's SharePoint developers build custom solutions that transform SharePoint from a generic file store into a powerful, branded digital workplace. From a simple department intranet to a complex multi-hub SharePoint architecture, we design and build SharePoint solutions that your employees actually want to use.
Branded, modern SharePoint intranet that serves as your digital headquarters — news, announcements, quick links, team sites, and personalised content.
Structured document libraries with metadata, version control, approval workflows, and records retention policies for compliance and efficiency.

“PapaSiddhi felt less like an agency and more like a senior team that happened to sit eight time-zones away. Business Central live in three months, and our finance team actually likes using it.”

“Our store-level reporting was always a week behind and never quite trusted. Their Power BI work gave us daily numbers the whole exec team now relies on, and the dedicated analyst took the time to learn our business instead of just building charts.”
