Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our SharePoint consulting services

What SharePoint consulting services does EPC Group offer?

EPC Group provides end-to-end SharePoint consulting including SharePoint Online migrations from on-premises (2003, 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019), governance framework implementation, custom development, intranet design, document management, workflow automation, and managed services. We've completed 625+ SharePoint migrations with zero data loss. Founder Errin O'Connor authored three Microsoft Press books on SharePoint, establishing EPC Group as a recognized authority.

How long does a SharePoint migration take?

SharePoint migration timelines depend on data volume and complexity: small migrations (< 500 GB, 10K documents) take 2-4 weeks, mid-sized migrations (500 GB - 5 TB) take 6-12 weeks, and enterprise migrations (> 5 TB, multiple site collections) take 3-6 months. EPC Group uses parallel migration tooling to accelerate timelines while ensuring zero data loss and minimal end-user disruption.

Can you migrate from SharePoint 2010 or older versions?

Yes. EPC Group specializes in legacy SharePoint migrations from 2003, 2007, 2010, 2013, and 2016 to SharePoint Online and Microsoft 365. Our migration methodology handles custom web parts, InfoPath forms, workflows, and third-party add-ins. We modernize sites during migration, converting classic pages to modern experiences and InfoPath to Power Apps. We've migrated 140+ legacy SharePoint environments successfully.

What is SharePoint governance and why is it important?

SharePoint governance defines policies, standards, and processes for managing SharePoint environments including site provisioning, permissions management, content lifecycle, retention policies, and compliance. Without governance, organizations experience permission sprawl, ungoverned site proliferation, compliance violations, and performance degradation. EPC Group implements governance frameworks with automated provisioning workflows, permission auditing, and policy enforcement, reducing administrative overhead by 60%.

Do you provide SharePoint training and ongoing support?

Yes. EPC Group offers SharePoint training for end users, site owners, and administrators. Training covers document libraries, lists, workflows, permissions, search, and modern SharePoint features. We provide managed services including 24/7 support, performance monitoring, security patching, and proactive optimization. Support SLAs include 1-hour response for critical issues and monthly governance reviews.

How much does SharePoint consulting cost?

SharePoint consulting costs vary by scope: governance assessments start at $15K, small migrations (< 500 GB) range from $25K-$50K, mid-sized migrations cost $75K-$200K, and enterprise migrations with governance implementation range from $250K-$750K. EPC Group provides transparent fixed-price quotes after discovery. Managed services start at $5K/month for ongoing support and optimization.

Modern SharePoint information architecture

Modern SharePoint in 2026 follows the hub-spoke architecture pattern:

  • 1 root hub per business unit.
  • 5–15 spoke sites per hub.
  • Mega-menu navigation tied to Viva Connections.
  • Sensitivity-label-driven sharing controls at the container level.

Organizations migrating from flat-IA legacy SharePoint farms to hub-spoke typically see 60% faster content discovery. They also see a 40% reduction in "where do I save this?" helpdesk tickets within 90 days.

Tenant-to-tenant migration tools

SharePoint Online tenant-to-tenant migrations in 2026 use three primary tools:

  • Native Microsoft 365 migration tools: Free — limited to in-place scenarios.
  • ShareGate: Best for permission preservation across hub-spoke architectures.
  • AvePoint Migrator: Enterprise scale with regulated-industry compliance reporting.

Compliance configurations

  • HIPAA: Microsoft HIPAA BAA, PHI sensitivity labels, DLP policies, and Purview Content Explorer audit.
  • SOC 2: SharePoint Online covered by Microsoft's SOC 2 Type II certification. EPC Group produces evidence packages.
  • FedRAMP: SharePoint Online in GCC or GCC High for government agencies.
  • CMMC: SharePoint in GCC High configured for CMMC Level 2/3 controls.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a SharePoint migration take?

Small migrations (under 500 GB, up to 10,000 documents) take 2–4 weeks. Mid-sized migrations (500 GB – 5 TB) take 6–12 weeks. Enterprise migrations (over 5 TB, multiple site collections) take 3–6 months with phased rollout. Compliance configuration adds 2–4 weeks to any regulated-industry migration.

How much does SharePoint consulting cost?

Governance assessments start at $15,000. Small migrations cost $25,000–$50,000. Mid-sized migrations run $75,000–$200,000. Enterprise migrations with full governance implementation cost $250,000–$750,000+. All EPC Group migrations include a zero data loss guarantee.

Which SharePoint versions can you migrate from?

EPC Group migrates from every SharePoint version: 2003, 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, and 2019, as well as SharePoint Foundation and Server editions. We also handle tenant-to-tenant migrations for merger and acquisition scenarios.

What is the hub-spoke SharePoint architecture?

Hub-spoke architecture organizes SharePoint sites into a hierarchical structure: one hub site per business unit, with 5–15 spoke sites connected to each hub. Hub sites share navigation, branding, and search scope. Sensitivity labels at the hub level propagate sharing controls to all connected spoke sites.

Does SharePoint Online support HIPAA?

Yes. Microsoft signs a HIPAA BAA for SharePoint Online. PHI stored in SharePoint requires sensitivity labels, DLP policies blocking external sharing, audit logging via Microsoft Purview, and restricted access to authorized personnel only. EPC Group configures all HIPAA controls during the migration project.
