6. Success Stories – ICA [1/6]
SUMMARY
Behind every dam, highway, and airport that ICA builds are thousands of documents that need to be referenced by dozens of people to
keep projects on track. The company recently used Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 to create an enterprise content management (ECM)
system for better organizing the 500,000 documents used by 3,000 employees daily. ICA employees can now locate the documents and
internal expertise they need to finish projects on time and within budget. Profitability has improved because ICA can now track and charge
for change-orders. Project documentation is far more secure, and ICA has created online communities where it can capture the knowledge
of internal experts. With data stores expected to grow to 15 terabytes in three years, ICA has a scalable ECM system that can keep up with
business growth.
7. Success Stories – City of Poway [2/6]
SUMMARY
The City of Poway, California, is well-planned, easy to navigate, and pleasant to be in, but its intranet wasn't. To address these
deficits, the city built a new intranet based on Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010. That choice gave Poway access to new and
enhanced features, such as color themes for page and site design, rich media support for high-quality video, online and
offline site use and synchronization, and even greater ease of use than previous versions. As a result, Poway has the trusted
resource for employees that it wanted, a one-stop location for timely and relevant information. Content updates now post in
minutes instead of one to two weeks, users find information quickly and easily, often without having to search for
it, collaboration makes it possible for work projects to be delivered faster and with greater accuracy, and IT maintenance
time is reduced by 50 percent.
8. Success Stories – TMF Group [3/6]
SUMMARY
TMF Group, a provider of accounting and corporate secretarial services, wanted to make it easier for account teams in 66 countries to
find and share customer documents. TMF Group chose Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 as the foundation for an enterprise document
management system. With the solution, TMF Group will automatically organize customer files in SharePoint sites to give account teams
immediate access to information. Employees will be able to respond to customers faster because they won't have to wait for documents
to be sent to them across time zones, from other locations. The company will be better able to ensure that each customer has completed
essential compliance steps, and will strengthen relationships with global customers through a single point of contact and broader service
offerings. TMF Group will use the new system to function in a more unified, professional manner.

Your organization probably has experience with systems like PeopleSoft, JDEdwards, Oracle Financials, or SAP—systems that are built for and deployed within vertical business functions. These applications support structured decision making and processes within their business functions and across the enterprise; nevertheless, silos exist between the applications themselves and the decisions and processes they support. This environment can make it difficult for business users to drive collaborative decision making that crosses business units and spans multiple business functions
With the breadth and flexibility of SharePoint 2010, your organization can create, implement, and improve the processes that impact business performance. SharePoint 2010 can connect a broad audience of users to business data that currently resides in siloed systems and is only accessible to specialized users and IT professionals. SharePoint 2010 also empowers every user—from information workers to power users and professional developers—to use and build solutions based on this business data to streamline processes, which can result in better, faster decisions for the organization
