iSoftStone's approach to SharePoint implementation allows our customers to begin realizing the the value of SharePoint sooner rather than later.
We drive an outcome-based implementation model that delivers a best-in-class SharePoint platform enabling you to focus on growing and developing your organization instead of focusing on administering a SharePoint platform.
Benefits of SET
Our five-point delivery framework assures your SharePoint platform will:
- Provide users faster access to the information they need.
- Optimize business processes with enhanced content management.
- Employ a governance model that keeps your site relevant.
Solution design and development framework
Step 1: Assess the now
We will work with you to identify the best ways SharePoint can help manage your business.- Meet with client stakeholders to understand their needs, pain points, and how their business should run.
- For rebuilds and migrations, catalog the site and understand features and services being used, and why.
- Review information and security architecture and recommend options that that makes the site easy to maintain.
Step 2: Plan for the future
We will help you think through a long-term approach to optimize the experience for your users.- Look at ways to use metadata and search to service up the right information, in the right place, and to the right person.
- Propose a solution that keeps content fresh and relevant without becoming a full-time job for the site administrator.
Step 3: Prepare to deliver
We will guide you on how to best consider content and design decisions.- For existing content, rebuilds, and migrations identify content that is meaningful, content to archive, and content to be thrown away.
- Determine the look and feel and content layout structure that best promotes the overall goals of the client stakeholders for their users.
Step 4: Execute against the plan
We will transform your ideas into reality.- Build out the site and configure its features based on analysis, requirements, and pre-work.
- Migrate content, objects, and features from the catalog and perform clean-up exercises.
Step 5: Sustain for growth and opportunity
We will deliver a governance model that ensures a sustainable platform that doesn’t get left behind.- Develop a toolbox to govern the site through regular audits, data retention, and customer engagement and feedback.
- Leverage web metrics to identify and track usage trends and make informed decisions for ongoing site improvements.
- Leave maintenance in the hands of the experts and focus on the critical functions of running your business.
