  • Define and validate the details of organization site and feature needs.
    • Sites and site hierarchies
    • Relationships between sites
    • Features of sites
    • Site customizations
  • Conceptual design document that define:
    • Corporate goals and objectives
    • Work Breakdown structure of the implementation for MOSS
    • Describe the solution deployment
    • Corporate branding
  • Establish Infrastructure requirements

Why a SharePoint Solution Architecture™ is critical for your organization

How to put the expertise of InterDoc at your service

Our solution architects have, during the last few years, guided large organizations in the development of SharePoint Solution Architecture™. Their expertise, along with our Alex methodology, has been instrumental in the success of these projects. Our planning methodology has been structured in various stages. The first step will be planning SharePoint to determine the details of your site and feature needs. These documents will help us to record information such as:

  • Sites and site hierarchies
  • Relationships between sites
  • Features of sites
  • Site customizations

We then will incorporate your site and feature planning decisions into a conceptual design document that:

  • Defines the purpose of the solution you are planning
  • Describes the implementation of the solution
  • Provides data, flowcharts, illustrations, and other information needed to plan the solution deployment

Our consultant will then develop a set of documents that will help determine the implementation of your deployment. These documents will help us to capture the architecture such as:

  • Deployment design
  • Physical topologies
  • Database design
  • Security design
  • Service-level agreements

Along with filling in the documentation, we we will incorporate the deployment planning decisions into a design specification document that:

  • Defines hardware requirements
  • Describes the physical system design
  • Provides data, diagrams, and other information useful to the team implementing the deployment
