Wind towers in West Texas Mansfield Dam floodgates Canyon of the Eagles Nature Park LCRA Case Study: From File Shares to SharePoint My Site March 30, 2012 TASSCC – TEC Conference
Business Drivers • Consolidate 5 platforms • eDiscovery & Records Retention Policy • User Document Management & Collaboration
Approach: Basic Strategy • Soft Rollout/Early Adopters • Managed / Gradual Implementation • Over-communicate to Middle Managers (especially Face to Face) • Utilize Super Users & established Communications channels
Approach: Data Governance • My Sites to replace personal drive shares • Available storage: • Site quota = 500 MB • File size < 100MB • Vault items don’t count towards site quota • File types to avoid: • Access databases • Files with dependencies, e.g. linked spreadsheets • Media files • Source control • Files > 100MB
How we “rolled(out)” training • Demos • Company wide meetings • Classroom • Training by request (1-1; dept) • Site visits • Open Houses
VISIBLE Advocates Steering Committee Project / Change Management Managers & Supervisors SMEs
As a Result of Involvement • Trust was reinforced between upper management and workers • Metrics were improving • Users were starting to understand capabilities
Driving Adoption Summary • Active & Visible Sponsorship/Advocacy • Use Metrics • Make it a performance goal • Reward early adoption • Communication Vehicles • Training, Open Houses, Traveling shows, demos • Staff meetings, All Hands Meetings, etc. • Blogs • Lead by Example (Walk the Talk) • Use the tool • Show what’s in it for them
Records Retention • Records management category review: from 100 to 10 • Three primary categories:
Lessons Learned: Communication • Clarity on the Business Drivers • Why we migrated • Benefits to employee • Define a formal feedback process
Lessons Learned: Training • Consider mandatory training • Underestimated the learning curve • More targeted training needed, i.e. save files, search sites
Lessons Learned: Teams • Steering Committee – right level, right people • Select SME and super users who are engaged • Talking points – worked well when delivered and passed down
