3. Metadata mgmt. is inconsistent
4. All content is retained forever
5. How are Records managed?

SharePoint Roadmap:
34. HOW WE GET STARTED WITH SHAREPOINT
• Define SharePoint RM Roadmap, including SharePoint 2010
• Define your SharePoint ECM and RM partner / product ecosystem
• Define your Content Type and Site Provisioning Templates and Inheritance
• Provide a Foundation for Consistent Team Sites and MySites
• Define an Enterprise Information Lifecycle
• Separate from business process
• Enforced across multiple repositories
• Achievable with a practical minimum of user involvement
• Enable SharePoint & RM Governance and Policy with a Framework
• Not just Infrastructure Governance Content and Records Governance
• With Support and Refresh of a Records Management Program(s)
• With Support and Refresh of a Legal and eDiscovery Program(s)
• Prioritize the Projects for Enterprise Deployment of SharePoint RM
• The best time is with a new version of SharePoint (e.g. 2010!)

Software
Cost/Savings
Hardware
Cost/Savings
People:
App Dev
People:
Admin/Maint
SharePoint SharePoint licensing is
expensive, but it
provides the
foundation for many
additional applications
and capabilities
More hardware and
infrastructure is
required, but it is
standardized.
More application
development, but
lower cost of
SharePoint skills
(eventually they are a
commodity)
More administration
and maintenance,
because more work is
done in SharePoint, but
skills become a
commodity
