The Information Challenge

Over and over again, companies face the same challenge: they have all of the information they need somewhere in their organization, but they find it difficult to locate and use that information at the moments that matter most.

Useful Information Is

• Organized
• Available
• Consistent

SharePoint Can Help

The solution is to use a system like SharePoint to make all of that content organized, available and consistent.

Collaboration

• Create Project Web Sites
  Self-service portals let your teams create online workspaces tailored to your organization's needs.
• Manage Document Revisions
  Document libraries with enforced policy prevent the ambiguity of multiple email versions.
• Enforce Branding through Document Templates
  Document libraries also allow for creating documents from templates, to ensure your team always uses the most recent version.

Business Intelligence

• One Dashboard for Multiple Line-of-Business Applications
  SharePoint connects to any major Line-of-Business application to allow key metrics to be displayed together.
• Provide Knowledge to the Entire Organization
  With the proper security, SharePoint web portals can provide knowledge captured in one area of the organization, to other team members.

Enterprise Search

• MSN Live Search for Your Business
  SharePoint's search capabilities give you the features and indexing of major internet search engines, but is focused on returning your company’s internal documents.
• Retrieve Results from Multiple Sources
  Results can be returned to one place from any number of web sites (even your competitors'!), shared file drives and even line-of-business applications.
• Secure
  Search capabilities in SharePoint inherit your Windows security policy, so items are only returned in search results if the viewer has access.

Workflow

• Act On Changing Information
  When items are added or changed in lists throughout SharePoint, an industry-standard rules engine can route them throughout the organization, and even gather feedback or approval.
• Enforce Process
  Making a process automatic and, therefore, easier to follow, makes it more likely the process will be followed.

This Website is SharePoint!

One of the many site types available in SharePoint is a public website. Instead of using a software developer to handle content changes to the site, content is maintained by the business unit that knows the content best. This reduces costs and helps keep the content more up-to-date and relevant.
