We solve the problems that keep SharePoint users and administrators up at night.
Any SharePoint user knows that a properly architected and managed platform makes a big difference. Our approach is making sure that your SharePoint system performs at the highest level from day one plays a big role in ensuring your success.
Strategy and Planning
Organizations often get the IT department to be the champion of their SharePoint systems, whether or not they have the expertise to do the job.
We work with your existing IT resources in introducing SharePoint into the organization. We build the solution to have it co-exist with your current systems and identify opportunities to utilize it in ways that does not interfere but instead improve upon your existing system.
Information Architecture
An effective information architecture takes many factors into consideration, such as hierarchy, taxonomy of information, security, navigation, user experience, and leveraging SharePoint out-of-the-box features.
We’ll help you create a comprehensive structure for your content, permissions, and features to avoid the nightmare of Ad Hoc implementations.
User Adoption
Getting people to use SharePoint when they are already used to other systems can be a challenge. Implementation strategies, on-boarding practices, and ongoing support and training are a must for a successful transition.
But the process doesn’t end after the deployment. We make sure that that clients and their teams are well educated and equipped to enable them to make the most out of their SharePoint platform.
Our team of SharePoint experts are here to make your transition as seamless as possible. Implementation strategies, on-boarding practices, on-going support and training are a must for a successful SharePoint integration process.
Our Approach for a Successful Deployment
Blueshift believes that a successful collaboration strategy requires consideration of the organization, its people, how the people interact with each other, and how those interactions feed into efficiency, improvements or general knowledge sharing in a way that can be captured and shared with the larger organization.
We take an iterative approach that allows the organization to actively participate in the creation of a strategy or information road map (using technology as a support mechanism to this end) that works. Instead of the traditional delivery method, we try to move to a “show vs tell” model, creation of a lightweight viable product that will reduce the amount of “unknowns”. Our approach allows organizational users to provide insightful feedback in context, and reduce the risk of a solution being overly unique, creating sprawl, or over-customization.
We’re used to working within strict security protocols – so even if your business has a sensitive schedule, or data access regulations, we’ll work with you to make sure those processes are respected. Secure processes, flexible schedules for deployment in off hours, and a focus on maintaining your business ideals are core parts of why our methodology is successful.
