Are you new to SharePoint and don’t know where to start? Perhaps you’re using SharePoint, but only for storing documents and making announcements?
Have you connected to your back-end systems? Is it time to deploy workflow and electronic forms? When’s the right time?
A well-planned SharePoint roadmap defines the business goals, timeline, strategy and vision for your collaboration initiative. It makes sure your project gets funded. It will ensure you’re investing in the right areas with a framework for success.

With the beta of Microsoft SharePoint freshly released in July, and the final version expected towards the end of year, now is the time to be looking at the new version of SharePoint: Microsoft SharePoint 2013.
Robert Stewart, Intergen’s a Solution Specialist for the Innovation, Strategy and Solutions Team spoke to attendees about Microsoft SharePoint 2013 - taking a look at where we’ve come from and what SharePoint is like today.
SharePoint 2013 is more than a refresh – it contains numerous features that will help improve collaboration and productivity for organisations of all sizes, embracing social media, mobility and search in new ways, while building on the solid platform established by earlier versions.
SharePoint and Business Intelligence: Understanding the Microsoft BI Portal C...Perficient, Inc.
Businesses of all sizes are quickly recognizing the value of Business Intelligence and the value of leveraging SharePoint as a BI portal platform.

5 Steps for Constructing a Successful SharePoint Migration PlanChristian Buckley
Pesentaton given by SharePoint MVPs Ben Curry (Summit 7 Systems) and Christian Buckley (Axceler) on the essential components of a SharePoint migration plan.
Starting in May 2010, with SQL Server 2008 R2, Microsoft began talking more and more about "Personal BI". The focus of this discussion was a paradigm shift moving business intelligence from being something a few BI professionals do with a data warehouse to a practice done by Information Workers every day in familiar tools like Microsoft Excel and SharePoint. Over the course of this session we will show you the improvements that Microsoft has made in the 2013 stack to take this new focus from being a “nice idea” to a truly powerful reality. We will explore the improvements made to Excel, PowerPivot & Power View, & Reporting Services. We will explain the underlying technology that makes the new features possible and walk through demos of some of the shinier toys. At the end of the session you will walk away with a better understanding of what is new in 2013 for business intelligence and an extreme desire to build reusable data model that will undoubtedly bring real value to your business.

Guiding a Successful SharePoint ImplementationRandy Williams
August 25 session
SharePoint is transforming the way organizations are connecting their people, business processes, and enterprise-wide information. In this exclusive two-part series on 23 & 25 August, led by SharePoint MVP Randy Williams, IT managers and SharePoint users will walk away with the blueprint they need to ensure they can successfully deploy SharePoint to meet their specific business needs.
In this session, learn the best practices and common pitfalls innate in implementing SharePoint in order to ensure your SharePoint service offering is right on the mark, the first time.
I walk through what I feel are the top 10 features in SharePoint 2013. I presented this to the Triad SharePoint User Group and was focused on features that I felt the audience would be most interested in and would be adopting immediately with the roll out of SharePoint 2013.
With the arrival of SharePoint 2013 on the market and the push for Office 365, many are planning to make the move on to this new version of SharePoint. I consider myself lucky to have already participated to a few of these so far. Often, I come across some challenges in the organization surrounding this upgrade. I thought I would put up this post and hopefully some of you will continue the reasons a migration can fail through the comments.
Many of our SharePoint clients are asking this question, "How do I develop an executive dashboard to surface meaningful business data?"

SharePoint 2063: The Future of SharePoint GovernanceChristian Buckley
My Lightning Talk from the SharePoint Technology Conference (#SPTechCon) held in San Francisco, presented March 4th, 2013. Not a lot of actual content....I'm invited to present purely for comedic relief, and always have fun doing it. But I'm keeping the Ford Fiesta.
Most organizations fail to adequately plan for their SharePoint deployments -- they do not understand their business requirements, nor do they assess the risks (or full benefits) of what is being deployed. This session outlines some risk management best practices as it applies to SharePoint governance planning.
In principle, you could have a hub site as your intranet home page, pull in corporate news from a communication site, and also give each department a team site for additional news items.
Does this mean we can use Hub Sites as our Intranet or is it still some building blocks missing?
Slides to describe the functionality of Hubsites in SharePoint and how hubsites helps you to build your Modern Intranet. Also the different webparts that we can use in a hubsite are described in the slides.
You got Microsoft Teams! Now let's build modern intranet on SharePoint - Team...Chirag Patel
Many organisations are adopting Microsoft Teams rapidly for collaboration and document management part of SharePoint. With your existing investments of SharePoint licenses you can take advantage of building modern intranet to keep your digital workplace connected. This session will walkthrough all the out-of-the-box features and solutions to get your modern intranet up and running
SharePoint out of the box is a powerful platform. Unfortunately, many organizations seem to think that governance is also out of the box. It isn't. The result? Site sprawl, unfettered content, and general process lawlessness. This is a fairly common problem, and there are definitely steps you can tackle to quickly get back on track. In this session, we'll discuss several real-world strategies for gaining control over your SharePoint environments, better aligning your SharePoint efforts with organizational goals, and dramatically improving your chances of meeting end user expectations.
