Microsoft Webcast: Creating a Global Human Resources System Foundation with SharePoint Server 2007 (Level 100)
Event Overview
In this webcast, we describe how migration of the Microsoft Human Resources Web content platform to Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 enables:
- Faster future development.
- Reduction of 50% custom code, resulting in business and IT agility.
- Lower sustenance costs.
- Essential capabilities for future state architecture.
- Alignment with the Microsoft IT global vision for simplification.
In the past, each application or content site developed its own functionality and process, leading to more than 20 highly customized applications and/or sites today. Continuing down this path breeds redundant work and convoluted technical architecture. Join this webcast to learn how migrating the HR Web content platform to SharePoint Server 2007 is expected to provide a return on investment (ROI) of more than $10 million over three years and a reduction of 15 custom global HR Web sites.
