Document Management

The programme will provide solutions for collaborating and managing documents which meet the needs of individuals, groups and units across the University.

The Document Management programme will engage with stakeholders to determine current document management practices across the University. The programme will gather requirements and will use these as a basis to establish a Document Management Service based on SharePoint ensuring that the service is compliant with security and governance.

The programme will analyse requirements and develop templated solutions within SharePoint to meet the needs of the most common Document Management use-cases.

A suite of processes and tools will be created to enable groups and units to implement effective document management solutions and establish an effective and sustainable business-as-usual service.
