Consolidate directories without hiding identity dependencies.
Inventory the source, validate target mappings, dry-run assumptions, and execute a bounded cohort with explicit reconciliation and rollback decisions.
Resolve the hard questions before execution.
BridgeAD supports the planning loop and provides controlled-pilot execution for agreed directory operations. Complex SID and rollback behavior remains topology-specific.
- Which source OUs and object classes are authoritative?
- Which target objects already exist or collide?
- How will UPNs, names, and parent OUs map?
- Which dependencies require ordered execution?
- Which SID history and ACL cases need lab validation?
- What constitutes a failed wave or rollback trigger?
- How will results be reconciled and approved?
- Which planned capabilities must remain out of scope?
What enters the first engagement.
Status is based on the current client-supported feature matrix and is confirmed against the release used for delivery.
Assess and prepare
Connections, discovery, mapping, CSV workflows, duplicate validation, and dry run.
Execute and recover
Migration orchestration, rollback, delta sync, SID history, ACL restamping, and password sync require scoped controls.
Exclude from promise
Automated workstation rejoin, print queues, WMI filters, GPO security-filter translation, SMB/RoboCopy, and USMT.
Start with one representative cohort.
Choose objects that expose real mapping and permission risk without making the first execution irreversible.
