Business Challenge

In light of Harper Macleod’s evolving business needs, they considered a transition from their current Intranet platform, which is based on Umbraco, to a more robust solution. SharePoint has emerged as a promising candidate to facilitate this shift, offering enhanced features and scalability.

The Solution

Umbraco to SharePoint Migration

PowerAutomate / Webpart

Flyte’s solution to Harper Macleod’s request was a comprehensive and strategic migration from Umbraco to SharePoint, addressing both technical and operational needs. The migration process involved seamlessly transitioning all content, data, and systems from Umbraco to SharePoint, ensuring minimal disruption to daily operations. In addition to the migration, Flyte planned to develop and embed a series of custom web parts into the SharePoint environment. These web parts were specifically designed to enhance workflow efficiency and streamline internal processes.

Flyte successfully completed a migration project, transitioning from Umbraco to SharePoint.

Flyte successfully completed a migration project, transitioning from Umbraco to SharePoint. This process involved not only the technical shift of content and systems but also the development of custom web parts tailored to the client’s specific needs. One key feature of the migration was the creation of a custom Staff Hierarchy Webpart, designed to display the organisational structure in a clear, interactive format. This webpart allows users to easily navigate and view/contact staff members and their roles within the company, ensuring better visibility and accessibility of internal resources. The overall migration to SharePoint provided enhanced functionality, scalability, and a more seamless user experience for the organisation.
