Business Situation:
This insurance company required consolidation and migration of their content from two legacy portals to SharePoint Online.
Solution Story:
Imaginet led this client through a complex task of consolidating and migrating content to SharePoint Online. Imaginet executed a Portal Transition Planning Quickstart that included a Strategy Briefing Session, an Architecture Briefing session, and a current state analysis of both environments.
Imaginet then developed a 3-phase migration strategy including a standardized security approach, operational governance, and site ownerships of the environment. A Developer Plan was assembled to build an integrated site taxonomy with a consistent look and feel throughout the entire solution. Imaginet also built the Policy Acknowledgement system with notifications and dashboards for Managers, HR, and Legal departments.
