Altostratus Leads the First Google Workspace Domain Transfer in Spain for Grupo BC
In an increasingly digital and globalized world, companies need flexible technological structures that align with their organizational strategies. Grupo BC, a leader in mortgage management services and banking outsourcing, sought to separate its business areas by regions to optimize internal management and operations.
To achieve this, it was necessary to divide their Google Workspace console through a structured separation process. This procedure allowed the creation of a new independent console without affecting daily operations, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted transition. For its proper execution, Google validation was crucial, along with the support of a specialized partner like Altostratus, part of Telefónica Tech, to ensure the success of each phase of the process.
The Challenge: A Strategic Change with No Margin for Error
Grupo BC operated with a centralized Google Workspace console with 5,000 active users and licenses. After the separation, the original console was left with 3,200 active accounts. To improve the operational structure and optimize regional management, it was decided to separate the LATAM operation into a new independent console, migrating over 1,700 users.
Projects of this nature present unique challenges, as they involve a deep restructuring of the technological infrastructure with no room for errors or disruptions in operations. To carry out this transition efficiently and without interruptions, Grupo BC trusted Altostratus, experts in the implementation and optimization of Google Workspace.
The Solution: A Pioneering Console Separation Process in Spain
The Altostratus team designed and executed a precise strategy to ensure that each phase of the transition was aligned with Grupo BC’s objectives.

- Configuration of the new console for LATAM: The infrastructure was tailored to fit the client’s operational needs.
- Execution of the Domain Transfer: The separation was coordinated with the Google team, ensuring the migration was efficient and seamless for users.
- Validation and final adjustments: The new console was verified to be fully operational and aligned with the client’s strategic goals.
The Impact: A More Agile, Secure, and Efficient Infrastructure
- Zero operational disruptions: Unlike other methods, the Domain Transfer avoided any impact on daily business operations.
- Improved organization and efficiency: The console separation enabled better management control and resource optimization.
- More secure and flexible infrastructure: Grupo BC now benefits from a technology structure aligned with its growth strategy.
- Time and cost savings: Avoiding a service-disruptive migration resulted in a faster and more efficient transition.
Thanks to the Altostratus team, we were able to divide our Google Workspace infrastructure without interruptions or complications. Their expertise and collaboration with Google were key to ensuring a smooth and successful process.
