SMC expands SharePoint offering

In a bid to provide specialist SharePoint skills to clients, SMC Enterprise recently announced the formation of SharePointKonsult. SharePointKonsult is a dedicated business unit that will focus on all things SharePoint.

SMC has, since the release of SharePoint 2007, managed to notch up some significant SharePoint projects in South Africa, USA and the Middle East.

According to Nadir Kamdar, Manager of the unit: “Our background in .Net development coupled with our consulting business provides us with the ideal momentum to create this business unit. SharePoint fits perfectly in our service bouquet; in fact we have been delivering SharePoint projects since 2003. Because of the increasing demand for SharePoint 2007 and soon 2010 services, an initial team of 10 consultants will provide the quality so sorely needed in the industry.”

The main offerings of SharePointKonsult are:

* Enterprise deployments – large-scale deployments for more than 500 users
* Intranet/Internet/extranet integration – consolidation of your Web sites on SharePoint
* Custom development – development of solutions on SharePoint
* Public sector solutions – solutions that help with e-government enablement

Other offerings include document/records management, workflow, forms automation and social computing on the SharePoint platform.

Kamdar concludes that organisations with existing investment in Microsoft Office will derive obvious benefits with the SharePoint platform, as it empowers users to work collaboratively.
