Identity Lifecycle Automation

Joiner, mover, leaver: automated, audited, accountable.

A defined-scope implementation that automates joiner, mover, and leaver workflows across your primary identity provider and a named set of downstream systems, with full audit trail and rollback.

8-12 weeks

The problem

When the 14-day deprovisioning window is no longer acceptable

A VP of Security has been told the 14-day average deprovisioning window is no longer defensible. Manual ticket-based provisioning. Terminated employees retaining access for over 30 days. The IAM team has promised to automate this for two years but has not been able to get it prioritized.

You need joiner, mover, and leaver running on rails, with an audit trail that holds up in front of a committee, and you need it shipped on a schedule you can commit to.

What is included

What we build

Joiner workflow

HR-triggered account creation, birthright access provisioning, day-one access package per role and location.

Mover workflow

Role-change detection, additive and removable access calculation, manager approval routing for sensitive entitlements.

Leaver workflow

Same-day deprovisioning across the named system list, license reclaim, evidence artifact generation for audit.

Operational support

Runbook, dashboards, exception handling procedures, 30-day post-go-live support.

Deliverables

What you receive

  1. Automated joiner, mover, and leaver workflows for one IdP and the named system set
  2. Audit trail and reporting on every lifecycle event
  3. Runbook documentation and exception handling procedures
  4. Dashboards for time-to-provision and time-to-deprovision
  5. Knowledge transfer and operational handover
  6. 30-day post-engagement support
Timeline

8 to 12 weeks, scoped to system count

Weeks 1-2

Discovery and design

HR source mapping, system inventory, lifecycle event design, exception case catalog.

Weeks 3-6

Build

Workflow construction, connector configuration, audit logging, dashboard wiring.

Weeks 7-9

Test and pilot

UAT, pilot population rollout, exception case validation, runbook refinement.

Weeks 10-12

Cutover and handover

Production cutover, knowledge transfer, 30-day post-go-live support window.

Engagement sizing

Three tiers, sized to system count

Tier 11 IdP plus up to 5 downstream systems, 8 weeks
Tier 21 IdP plus up to 10 downstream systems, 10 weeks
Tier 31 IdP plus up to 15 downstream systems, 12 weeks

Investment is confirmed on your scoping call after we walk through your system inventory and complexity.

Fit

Who this is for

Directors of IAM, VPs of Security, and CISOs at organizations of 500 to 5,000 employees, particularly in regulated or high-turnover industries where manual deprovisioning has become a recurring audit finding.

Out of scope

What this is not

This is not a platform implementation from scratch. The engagement assumes an identity provider is already in place. It is also not every access scenario in your environment: scope is joiner, mover, and leaver against the named system list. Privileged access workflows, customer identity, and access certifications are separate engagements.

Need something more comprehensive?

Not every identity program fits a package.

If your situation is larger, spans multiple platforms, or needs a custom roadmap, our advisory practice takes on bespoke engagements.
