Intune/MEM missing from G3 licenses

Question

We are migrating to O365 and have G3 licenses. I was hoping to use Intune/MEM to replace the functionality of our PDC and push policy/do authentication. Per this page https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/fundamentals/licenses my G3 licenses should come with Intune, however there is no Intune option.

Intune appears in our Enterprise Applications in Azure as three applications: Intune CMDeviceService, Intune DeviceActionService and Intune DiagnosticService and then 9 applications named Microsoft Intune (Advanced threat, Web portal, API etc.). When I click on any of these Microsoft one it indicates that I need to provision users by adding them to AD and to my application. All of my users are already in AD. I am thinking that this SSO aspect is to federate third party application integration behind Azure AD, which is not what I need.

No Intune is available as a feature to be assigned to a user in "Update License Assignments." As the Global Admin I can see the the MEM Admin center but all options except User/Groups give me "No permission 403." We do not have an Azure Premium account if this is relevant. We are buying our licenses through a re-seller but they used my previously created tenant so I am Global Admin and I have elevated my privileges in Azure as well as added various Intune permissions manually.

Thanks in advance.

The page you linked to has Microsoft 365 G3 listed, not O365 G3. They are different and Office licensing does not include MEM.

You need to discuss this with your account team.
