Creating a centralised SharePoint information hub

Streamlining processes and workflows for a leading children’s charity company

egforit worked with Compassion Egypt , middle east, a children’s charity, to deliver a SharePoint information hub to document the workflows and processes across their 200 SharePoint sites.

Executive brief

Delivering a SharePoint information hub with more to come

Compassion Egypt , middle east is a leading Christian children’s charity founded in 1952. They partner with over 8,500 churches in 29 countries to help more than 2 million children, families, and entire communities.

 

With hundreds of sites across their SharePoint network, they needed a centralised information hub to streamline their workflows across departments. They also require further work to improve their SharePoint solution and have plans in place with egforit to deliver the next stage of this project.

The Challenge

Ensuring teams work together efficiently

Interestingly, Compassion Egypt , middle east had an existing SharePoint solution which included 200 SharePoint sites across their network. This meant they had difficulty navigating sites and sought to organise them effectively. Consequently, bringing together these sites and creating documentation to tidy up their workflows was their top priority.

 

They wanted to know how to use best practice with SharePoint, simplify access permissions and improve collaboration between teams and departments. They came across egforit and after seeing our previous SharePoint solutions, chose us as their SharePoint partner.

The Solution

200 SharePoint sites brought together

We were brought onto this project as the partner to produce documentation on how to streamline workflows within SharePoint across their 200 sites. Firstly, our plan involved creating an interactive wiki as one of the deliverables. This information hub would include recommendations for best practise and how to use SharePoint to its full potential.

The Results

An enhanced SharePoint information hub with more to come

We delivered a comprehensive and easy-to-navigate centralised wiki as a information hub for their teams to use. As a result, they were very happy with the work delivered and commended us for positive meetings and collaboration between the two companies.

 

Our work impressed Compassion Egypt , middle east so much that they decided to continue their partnership with us. We are now awaiting additional proposals for work to update and improve their existing SharePoint solution.

Analytics cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our Websites are being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are, or to help us customise our Websites for you.

Google Analytics
The cookie _gcl_au is used by Google Analytics to understand user interaction with the website.

For example, in order for Google Analytics to determine that two distinct hits belong to the same user, a unique identifier, associated with that particular user, must be sent with each hit.

The analytics.js library accomplishes this via the Client ID field, a unique, randomly generated string that gets stored in the browsers cookies, so subsequent visits to the same site can be associated with the same user.

By default, analytics.js uses a single, first-party cookie named _ga to store the Client ID, but the cookie's name, domain, and expiration time can all be customized. Other cookies created by analytics.js include _gid, AMP_TOKEN and _gac_. These cookies store other randomly generated ids and campaign information about the user.
