Agile Project Organization for SharePoint Implementation

Better networking of complex corporate structures with intranet offerings

The family-owned company WULFF, with its headquarters in Lotte, Westphalia, and nine branches throughout Germany, has been a "friend of the trades" for more than 130 years and is a leader in supplying companies in four trades: the painting trade, the decorating trade, the carpentry trade and the installation trade. WULFF GmbH employs over 200 people to market its own products and a wide range of other tools and materials. The company supplies its customers directly and even to construction sites. More than 80 delivery vehicles are on the road every day. Time and operational planning are decisive factors for success. This raises questions of logistics and communication. In the future, an intranet based on Microsoft SharePoint technology is to improve and facilitate work and the exchange among each other.

The requirements for a first stage of expansion of the intranet were:

• News can be posted regularly (e.g. by the company management)
• Information about the company can be shared (from departments)
• everyone can read about what departments and locations are involved with and which employees are responsible for them
• Important documents are centrally accessible
• Praise point where employees can praise their colleagues for all to see
