Building a well planned structure

When SharePoint has proved its merits though, your IT department may be unable to successfully scale up your SharePoint Server to deal with its adoption by the entire organization. With a lot of valuable information already tied into your existing SharePoint Server, this can be a challenging dilemma. The Milton Security Group has extensive experience in helping companies rapidly transition seamlessly from trial stages to full-on deployment of SharePoint that's fully able to deal with all the demands placed on it.

We can help.

A strategic vision;
An infrastructure framework;
An application framework;
An administration framework.

Strategic vision

Within these frameworks, we'll work with your staff to identify and address the key areas that require particular focus in the transition. No matter your specific utilization of SharePoint's features, we can ensure data-integrity, limited downtime and the necessary salability for an effective large scale deployment. As part of the Plan, we'll keep our vision firmly fixed on the future to make sure your installation is architected in a way that allows effortless expansion as your organization grows.

Infrastructure framework

Infrastructure planning is concerned with the hardware and software requirements, where we'll consider the most effective and cost-efficient ways to provide your organization's scalable performance with industry leading uptime encased in a plan to protect your data, both digitally and physically, against malicious attack or accidental damage. Your infrastructure will be designed to grow alongside your business, so it's always there exactly where and when you need it.

Application framework

To allow for the most powerful use of SharePoint within your organization on a day-to-day basis, we'll directly focus on the following areas:

Defining an intuitive navigation layout;
Identifying key areas within your portal, such as departments and lines of business, and plan associated content location and type appropriately around them;
Determining who needs to access what and entrench careful security permissions protecting your data against internal and external damage;
Seeking the most useful ways in which SharePoint can integrate into your organization's broader software eco system.

This broad approach will ensure you maximize every dollar spent on your SharePoint Server.

Administration framework

Your administration framework concerns the governance of your portal, including the codification of the rules, methods and processes covering all aspects of the administration of your SharePoint including the setup and maintenance of your sites.

The Deployment Plan

The strategic vision, infrastructure, application and administration frameworks will all be merged into an effective, long-term "SharePoint Portal Deployment Plan" to help your organization meet its goals.
