New SharePoint 2013 Intranet
Agilistix has been commissioned to deliver the new corporate Intranet for The Crown Estate. As part of a major SharePoint 2013 upgrade project and corporate rebranding exercise, Agilistix will design, build and deliver a new corporate Intranet, in SharePoint 2013, replacing the current intranet, called i-site, which is running on Microsoft Office SharePoint Services 2007 (MOSS 2007).
The new intranet will be the primary tool for delivering corporate news and announcements to the entire business, across multiple geographical locations. Taking advantage of the latest social features of SharePoint 2013, the focus will be on engaging users to interact with the business and each other, rather than the stereotypical, static brochureware intranets that are quickly becoming a thing of the past.
“..I am confident that by engaging in a transparent Agile approach from the outset, that we will deliver a robust, quality product, on time and on budget”
Carl Adamson, CEO, Agilistix Ltd
Agilistix CEO, Carl Adamson, said, “We are delighted to have won this business but with Christmas upon us and a delivery date of early February 2015, it will be a challenge. However, we have the best in-house SharePoint intranet expertise to hand and I am confident that by engaging in a transparent, iterative Agile approach from the outset, that we will deliver a robust, quality product, on time and on budget”.
