SharePoint Assessment & Roadmap: The Key to a Successful Collaboration Platform

By: Jim Eagleton

Senior Director SharePoint/ Collaboration

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server is a robust collaboration platform that offers a wide variety of features to help organizations drive efficiencies and effectiveness across the enterprise, with employees, partners and customers. A well-planned and integrated implementation promises excellent results. However, to leverage the true potential of the platform requires up-front analysis of the business objectives and IT infrastructure to ensure the best fit solution that is aligned with organizational priorities.

In our experience, we’ve seen customers fall into a few broad groups that outline the opportunity matrix for SharePoint:

1. A business that implemented an older version of SharePoint and wishes to upgrade to the latest to avail the new features and capabilities
2. A business that implemented SharePoint as a point solution for a given project or team and wishes to expand its reach across the enterprise, ensuring standard usage and integrated governance policies
3. A business that uses a few of the features of SharePoint, but now wishes to leverage the full capabilities of the product
4. A business that has no collaboration platform as yet and wants to ensure an implementation that follows industry best practices and aligns with their business priorities
