Teams
Business as usual (BAU), remote working and collaboration

iWorkplace Teams Framework
Our structured way of delivering collaboration and ECM no matter where your staff and customers are.
Deployed for over a dozen organisations within two weeks during the lockdown!
Avoid these common problems
Too many teams
By default anyone can create a team (and its associated SharePoint site). This leads to multiple teams and confusion about where to work
Hard to find what I need
Why can't I access all the information I need? Teams lock down access and search to members of the team and information becomes dangerously compartmentalised
Too many admins
By default Team owners and members can change key settings on the SharePoint sites - this can make it hard for users to use and even access this info
Sensitive information risks
Personal or sensitive information held in Teams can become a ticking time bomb. Is content being held in Teams that should have been disposed of or secured?
Compliance & information accidents
All of the above raises risk and potential liability for indefensible disposal, not to mention making it even harder to gather the info needed for OIA, LGOIMA or Ministerial requests
Why is Teams not making work better?
You and others getting disillusioned and returning to email, meetings, and fileshare use
Meet today’s pressing needs and kickstart your ECM future
Future-proof
Avoid ad-hoc messes that need to be sorted out later
User driven ECM
Users request Teams via a simple form, ensuring they are reviewed, meet needs, and you avoid duplication
Affordable
Achievable on a minimal budget with only a 2-3 week set up time
ECM design baked in
Standardised document libraries and permissions, giving you great search, retention & disposal, and meeting your government mandated requirements
Clean up the Teams you have
We have methods you can use to quickly review and cleanup and/or consolidate Teams - so you go from thousands to tens
