PRMA Case Study

PRMA Matrix is the name given to the new SharePoint based Intranet for PRMA Consulting based in the UK.   Sei-IS Business Consultancy have managed the design, build and implementation of the project as well as the efforts required to change the business to adopt the new installation which of course is still happening.

Shortly we will be adding a link to SharePoint Boutique who partnered to complete the project.  They will produce a case study for the technical details of the build.  This is just an overview of the project and functionality delivered.  More information available from SteveDalby@sei-is.be .

The neutralised report is attached which I will hope might assist you in fleshing out your Information Management plans.  Open here  Short White Paper on Information Management
