DeltaPoint helps you achieve efficient SharePoint control

As a versatile platform, Microsoft SharePoint has been adopted by many pharmaceutical companies as the backbone for Electronic Document and Quality Management systems (EDMS & QMS) as well as Clinical and Investigator Portals, housing controlled and regulated content that requires to be hosted within a controlled environment.

However, if critical configuration parameters and shared services are not properly managed in SharePoint, its numerous functions and cross-functional settings can easily spin out of control. It becomes even more difficult to keep track of the interdependencies between critical parameters when validated and non-validated business applications co-exist within the same SharePoint infrastructure.

DeltaPoint is a governance approach that enables efficient SharePoint control during all phases of a SharePoint platform implementation, from design to maintenance. It starts with detailed installations guides followed by a thorough identification and documentation of all critical configuration parameters. To facilitate change control and configuration management, epista IT has developed a governance tool which extracts and compares configuration baselines automatically, generating baseline reports that cover the whole SharePoint infrastructure.

The DeltaPoint governance solution also includes policies and procedures that ensure consistency during operation and maintenance of the SharePoint farm and its applications.
