SharePoint Remediation for Global Firearms

​A Global manufacturer of firearms and outdoor hunting and fishing equipment needed help managing a faltering Intranet.  SharePoint Deployment Planning Services targeted triage, remediation and best practices for optimal performance.
 

 Business Need

 

A Global manufacturer of firearms and outdoor hunting and fishing equipment needed help managing a faltering Intranet.  A proliferation of unmanaged SharePoint Team sites had sprung up at individual plant locations and in corporate departments without any consistent controls on branding, functionality, or site navigation.​

 

 Solution

 

Vision

Eastridge engaged with the customer for five days of SharePoint Deployment Planning Services targeting the triage, remediation, and best practice guidance for their SharePoint 2007 Intranet.  The engagement was partially paid by the customer's Volume Licensing training vouchers from Microsoft.​

Architecture

Eastridge delivered a focused proof of concept to help guide the customer's IT support group with branding, topology, navigation, and document management.  The last day of the engagement was spent working directly with the customer's portal team to address specific problems with their environment.

 

 Benefits

 

In just a few short days, this customer had a roadmap on how to build, manage, and deploy a true enterprise Intranet based upon Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server 2007.  These services were partially paid through the customer's own Deployment Planning Services vouchers from Microsoft Volume Licensing.
