The Platform / Domains / Communications
Email platforms know mailboxes. UC systems know calls and meetings. Carriers know numbers. Mobile systems know devices. Legal systems know holds and retention. XOPS continuously reconciles those signals into the Communications Position, then coordinates every transition as one governed outcome.

The core primitive
Email platforms know mailboxes and messages. UC platforms know calls, meetings, and channels. Carriers know numbers and routing. Mobile systems know devices. Legal and compliance systems know preservation obligations. Each holds a fragment of the communications reality.
XOPS reconciles those fragments into the Communications Position.
The Communications Position is the continuously reconciled state of mailboxes, addresses, phone numbers, calling plans, channels, memberships, policies, retention obligations, legal holds, archives, and ownership. It gives XOPS the context required to determine and execute the correct outcome.
The lifecycle, end to end
Every mailbox, number, channel, policy, and preservation obligation coordinated across email, voice, collaboration, mobile, carrier, archive, and legal systems, reconciled into one Communications Position.
1
Mailbox provisioning, distribution lists, forwarding, retention, transport security, mailbox conversion.
2
DID assignment, calling plans, voicemail, auto-attendants, queues, SBC, E911, number recycling.
3
Teams/Slack workspaces, federation, guest access, meeting rooms, UC policy, mobile softphone.
4
Litigation hold, eDiscovery, DLP, retention policy, channel governance, threat protection, archive.
5
Mailbox conversion, license recovery, distribution-list cleanup, number recycling, BYOD policy enforcement.
Governed outcome patterns
These are not fixed workflows. Each outcome pattern uses the current Communications Position to determine the right actions, ordering, policy, retention obligations, and exception path across HRIS, identity, email, UC, carriers, mobile management, archives, and eDiscovery systems. Every transition follows a governed, auditable path. Every action is reversible.
Provisioning
P2 · minutes
Mailbox creation, UC platform account, calling-plan assignment, license allocation, policy package, mobile config, coordinated end to end on hire or role change.
Voice
P2 · same-day
DID assignment, port-in coordination, calling-plan + voicemail, E911 location validation, auto-attendant or queue routing, softphone delivery.
Deprovisioning
P1 · same-day
Mailbox conversion to shared, archive policy, UC license reclaim, DL cleanup, phone number reclamation, mobile policy enforcement, with retention preserved where required.
Compliance
P1 · real-time
Hold application across mailbox, Slack/Teams, phone records, mobile messages, federated systems. Retention overrides. Evidence package ready in hours.
When timing matters
Standard offboarding ran cleanly. Then a lawsuit arrived. Outside counsel needs every email, every Slack DM, every phone log from a former senior leader, and standard retention has already started taking pieces.
Without coordination
With XOPS
One legal event. Six communications systems coordinated in real time.
Zero evidence gaps.

Customer outcome · S&P Global
Fortune 250 · Financial
S&P Global’s eDiscovery once spanned twelve separate platforms, each with its own retention policy, admin, and export format. XOPS continuously reconciles every communications artifact, account, channel, number, policy, and preservation obligation into the Communications Position. When legal places a hold, every relevant system preserves automatically. When evidence is requested, production is coordinated from one governed operational record.

“Outside counsel used to ask us how confident we were in the production. Now they ask how we did it. The graph holds the chain of custody, not a vendor.”
