Josephine's+Proposal

= Assignment 1 - Spend $1 Million on Technology for your Institution =

//I would like EACH of you to prepare a proposal for spending 1 million dollars on technology in your institution (school or non-school workplace). There should be a three paragraph executive summary including a statement of the problem, the proposed intervention and the way(s) in which you will determine effectiveness. That should be followed by a detailed budget and rationale, including vendors and costs.//


 * __Executive Summary__**

Problem Statement: Our Organization can not find documents and project artifacts easily. Long, slow searches are performed without any results and frequently with the wrong results. There are multiple copies similar in nature because employees are frequently duplicating work. Need a central local for all documents were employes can collaborate and update the documents quickly.

Proposed Intervention: Implement SharePoint Server to increase collaboration and document storage.

Determined Effectiveness [1] :
 * Collaboration - Creating an environment that allows teams to work together by providing an intuitive, flexible, and secure capability for sharing information.
 * Portal - Delivering the capabilities to personalize the user experience of an enterprise website by providing individuality, security, and social networking capabilities.
 * Enterprise Search - Locating relevant data and content distributed across a wide range of sites, document libraries, business application data repositories, and other sources. Enterprise search also supports the location of appropriate resources to address specific questions.
 * Content Management - creation, review, and management of content, regardless of the format of the content. Content management can include document management, records management, and Web content management.
 * Business Forms and Integration – Creation and implementation of forms that drive the enable business operations through the use of business process workflows. The forms are delivered via standard Web browsers and can be extended via the integration with databases and third party applications.
 * Business Intelligence - Delivery of business critical information using a wide range of solutions, including server based Excel spreadsheets, SQL Reporting and KPI tools, to assist in the decision making process.

Building a successful roadmap involves three areas: People, Process, and Technology. Business processes represent the way we capture information, organize and store the information, and, ultimately, use the information in our decision processes. The technology functions include all system components that make up the SharePoint solution. 1
