Defining the key elements for SharePoint Migration, such as:
Overall Approach
The overall approach to your SharePoint upgrade or migration initiative depends on the current user base, content, configurations, and customizations of your existing SharePoint environment.
Solutions
Developing digital solutions for organizations using multiple SharePoint versions, non-SharePoint systems, or multiple Information Architecture and System Architecture editions and ensure these applications are compatible and supportive (example-organizations having both SharePoint 2007 and SharePoint 2016 environments).
Upgrade & Migration Options
Provide upgrade and migration options that align with any possible budgetary constraints to implement the project, either with a phased approach or a “big bang” approach.
(IA) Re-Design, Site Consolidation & Content Clean-Ups
Provide information architecture (IA) re-design, site consolidation, content clean-up, and content migration to the existing SharePoint environment before the migration.
Interoperability
Ensure a secure collaboration so that existing custom features or business workflows are “interoperable” between the existing SharePoint 2010 platform and the newer SharePoint 2016 or 2019 environment.
SharePoint Governance Strategy

Besides, we also create a customized strategy for other technologies used for integrating SharePoint, such as Microsoft Exchange, Skype for Business 2019, and Project Server.
Our governance strategies also cover custom software development, code promotional, and application lifecycle management (ALM). Governance is a cardinal component to ensure long-term success and is unique for every organization. With our governance strategies, it becomes easy for organizations to define who will manage the overall platform and related granular roles and responsibilities within the organization to establish rules for its appropriate usage.
Our development team designs a detailed governance strategy considering how you want the business and the technical team to leverage the environment. It comes with well-defined procedures to incorporate growth, and future change focuses on maintaining a balance between restrictions and enterprise compliance policies. EPC Group has been developing governance strategies for the past 25 years, and our plan covers almost all the scenarios you might experience throughout the platform lifecycle.
FOUR MAJOR PILLARS OF EPC GROUP’S GOVERNANCE STRATEGIES:
People
Roles and responsibilities
Process
How to accomplish common tasks as well as new business and technology requests
Technology
Leveraging features and tools to enforce policies
Policy
Collection of principles and clear definitions on how the platform is utilized
One of the substantial elements setting EPC Group apart from the competition is our approach to implement a successful SharePoint 2019 governance strategy.
