| Project |
| SharePoint Portal |
| Technology |
| MS SharePoint 2007, MS InfoPath 2007, MS .NET, SQL 2005, Active Directory |
| Problem |
| The client
had multiple critical business processes that were being performed
using Microsoft® Word™
and Excel™ Templates. All of this
information was being shared and discussed using internal emails and documents
were stored on the employees local machine. There was no way to
track progress, completion or approval. |

Solution |
|
Care Converge was entrusted with the task of
creating a SharePoint
Portal solution that formed the foundation to facilitating business
collaboration between employees across the client's different
locations.
The Care Converge team started with a business
analysis of key businesses processes that needed to be
streamlined using the SharePoint Portal . Meeting with key business
stakeholders, the team was able to determine the business value of
each of the existing processes as well as all proposed modifications
that were preferred. Once the team had understood the needs of
the business, the next step was to create a project plan for the
re-engineering of these processes into collaborative workflow
enabled SharePoint sites that would enable employees to create,
share and approve information. A phased approach was planned with a
mix of business applications deployed in each phase based on
business need.
The Care Converge team was then able to develop
a master portal site with sub-sites for each specific department and
related business processes. Document Libraries, Lists, Discussion
boards and other SharePoint features were used to create business
applications around the SharePoint platform. Custom web parts using
.NET were also created to resolve specific business requirements.
As the team completed the development and testing
of each phase of the project, business users were invited to test
the applications for accuracy and functionality. On approval, the sites were deployed and are
currently in use.
