Yet another licensing question

We currently have about 70 odd users with Business Premium, however as most of our users prefer to use the google suite i'd like to try and cut down on license fees a little.

We currently rely on MS for

  • IDP, for sign in to slack
  • intune, to join and manage windows mac and mobile devices using the microsoft accounts.
  • office suite on pcs, like outlook, word, excel, etc.

I would like to give everyone just an "apps for business" license, but my concern is this will break intune management. (and, possibly, IDP, or does only the global admin need an azure AD license?)
Thus, in order for intune to function

Can the global admin have 1 standalone intune license, and all other users just have apps for business? OR must everyone additionally have a standalone intune license for that to work?

is there a version of apps for business that includes intune as an addon?

Was not able to find a clear answer on this elsewhere unfortunately
