13. SharePoint is the fastest selling product in Microsoft history.
Microsoft has been adding 20,000 SharePoint users per day, every day
for the last five years.
There are over 65,000 SharePoint customers who have purchased
SharePoint
14. Research firm AIIM discovered:
Half of SharePoint implementations proceed without a clear
business case (which shows lack of direction from the start)
Only 22% of organizations provide users with any guidance
on corporate classification and use of content types and
columns
1/3 of organizations have no plans as to how to use
SharePoint, while 1/4 of organizations say IT is driving it
with no input from information management professionals.
End Result: A fancier, much more expensive set of
shared drives rather than a usable ECM system with
findable information assets.

Strategy Governance
17. IT Strategy in general
A plan to achieve goals and results
A journey redefined quarterly
Communicated across organization
What it is not
A single meeting with a series of PowerPoint slides
Lot’s a technical documentation
Why is this a challenge with SharePoint
Business impact is difficult to define
It’s about adoption, not under budget delivery
Should know the capabilities of the product
18. A strategy could even be considered
pro- activity watching , and perhaps
making a half-hearted connection
with what other departments, the
larger corporation, market place or
even the competition is doing and
when you have enough information
a decision is made.
19. Why you need an IT SharePoint
governance?
“we need to be more Governance with our IT spending
