To obtain all electronic information located on the Client's share drive. All information was then catalogued, processed and uploaded for use for the Client and their FM provider.


The Client

The client is one of the world's largest banking organisations.

The Project

To obtain all electronic information located on the Client's share drive. All information was then catalogued, processed and uploaded for use for the Client and their FM provider.

Outcome

The Client now has an externally hosted RIedms platform within SharePoint 2013. The search facility built into this platform sources information very precisely and instantly with the added benefit of having a document preview built into the side panel of the search. This feature allows the end user to quickly browse documents prior to opening.

As well as the FM provider saving time hunting for information from the hard copy archive, the projects team saves time and survey resource as they send pertinent information directly to the Contractor or provide them external access to the areas of the system they require.

Building Type

Quality of Information

n/a

Hosting

Client's SharePoint System (2007 SharePoint)

Obstacles

We had to redevelop some key aspects of our RIedms platform so it could be integrated effectively into an older SharePoint site. We had to work very closely with the Client's SharePoint administrator/s to achieve this seamlessly.
