Information Architecture
6
Information architecture is intertwined throughout all of these areas and each must be addressed during
a migration engagement to be successful.
User Experience: Intuitive navigation, search, and
logical access to relevant and current content. Look
and feel / branding and governance to promote
consistency.
Content: Content types, metadata models, and
controlled vocabularies across the enterprise to
power search results and “findability”
Process: Workflows, content ownership and creation
processes, as well as lifecycle management play
into the overall information architecture
Configuration: Site templates, site structures,
document library and list settings, search tuning
and other standardization to support the long-
term implementation.
Security: Site structures and navigation models
are driven by security and ownership as well as
physical architecture impacts. Discussion of
sites vs. site collections vs. site container
(document library, list, etc.) impact the IA.

technical architecture as the basis for a successful
implementation.

Business challenges to implementing OCM
10/17/2016 14
Transformational challenges Project challenges
Executive commitment and attention
Agreement on standards
Loss and gain of control
Mismatch of organizational capabilities to
transformational needs
Time to absorb changes
Available information to commit to change
Communication fatigue
Stakeholder engagement and voice
You should provide:
Organizational change management partner to assist with cultural and people transformation
Organizational change management methodology to support your technology implementation
Challenges exist no matter how positive the organization perceives the change or how well the project is managed.

Organizational change management approach
Conduct a top-down, bottom-up approach to organizational change management; there is just as much effort placed on end
users as there is on middle management, leadership, and executives within the organization in order to truly transform.
10/17/2016 15
We purposefully manage and track individual transitions – pushing
impacted stakeholder groups along the change curve by:
Building awareness and common understanding early on
Highlighting ‘big changes’ and end-to-end processes prior to training
Continuing with communications and measurement after
implementation
We place a heavy emphasis on leadership involvement – aimed at senior
and middle management with goals of:
Supplying leaders with relevant and timely information during the
entire project lifecycle
Predicting employee reactions and proactively arming leaders with
successful mitigation strategies
Leadership Stakeholders

Core principles of our approach
10/17/2016 16
Align to business strategy Consider the cultureDemonstrate need for change Develop stakeholder buy-in
Business strategy drives the
scope of the business
transformation; the success of
organizational change
management process is
directly related to employee’s
ability to commit to the
business’ objectives
Ability to deliver an effective
change program is impacted
by the organization’s culture;
it is essential to design a
program that takes into
consideration cultural norms
and understand where culture
influences resistance
Developing a clear and
compelling rationale for
change that is rooted in
current pain points and
painting a vision for the future
instills confidence and support
in the solution
Stakeholder buy-in and
comprehensive
communication planning are
critical for an organization to
withstand, accept, and
embrace changes in the
process and system rollout
