MICROSOFT SHAREPOINT As a commercial off the shelf COTS product, Microsoft SharePoint is a business collaboration platform for the Enterprise and the Internet. Available as a Cloud or on-premise solution, SharePoint provides a platform enabling businesses to share information, improve processes and enable the development of customised solutions. Key capabilities of SharePoint include: A central system for the storage of information; Content management functionality, including version control and retention management; Powerful search; Integration capability enabling SharePoint to be used as a platform to share information from disparate systems across the business; Business intelligence and tools including interactive dashboards and scorecards; Out of the box tools that simplify the creation of business web sites for Intranet, Extranet or Internet and the development of business specific solutions; Effective collaboration tools enabling people to work together more easily and automate business processes using workflow; Mobile and cross-browser support. The Microsoft SharePoint platform offers powerful tools and a breadth of functionality that requires careful consideration in order to ensure delivery of the intended benefits. STL will work with you to identify and deliver the most appropriate SharePoint solution for your business. STL Technologies Limited Page 6 of 20

STL MICROSOFT SHAREPOINT SERVICES STL s Microsoft SharePoint Services will be conducted against an agreed Statement of Work using a rate card. STL services can be procured for a full project implementation, or for discrete pieces of work. The range includes: Business analysis A clear SharePoint strategy will benefit your business performance. We will work with you to develop and check the validity of the business case for your SharePoint strategy, assessing it s alignment to your business goals, how it will support business performance and the potential return on investment. STL will provide you with an initial scoping exercise free of charge to determine your business readiness for SharePoint and the application suitability for your needs. Implementation and upgrade STL is able to draw on a wide pool of technical staff and experience to deliver successful SharePoint projects. Projects may be new implementations, upgrade of existing SharePoint systems, or extending an existing implementation with new functionality. Typical activities that we would expect to undertake with this service include: Requirements capture and specification working with key project stakeholders and business users to understand the business needs and process flows; Technical architecture design; User interface design; Iterative development cycles aimed at giving early visibility and review of the solution. Each build cycle offers the opportunity for requirements to be more finely tuned to meet the business STL Technologies Limited Page 7 of 20

requirements, and minimises the risk of a solution not meeting business requirements when it is delivered at the end of a single long development phase; End to end project planning and management; STL also makes full use of SharePoint s highly customisable and integrated framework. Through our team of developers we carry out bespoke application development with SharePoint at the core and have developed a number of industry specific solutions that can be delivered off the shelf or customised to suit specific requirements. Upgrade When looking at projects requiring upgrade of an existing SharePoint implementation, we will undertake an initial review exercise to understand the implementation and identify the most appropriate upgrade approach. The review activity will identify areas that may need to be addressed as a pre-requisite to upgrade, or those that may require configuration or customisation as part of the upgrade due to changes in release functionality. Microsoft SharePoint clinics To help obtain best value from your solution, we will review your SharePoint system. The SharePoint platform offers comprehensive out of the box functionality. The configurable nature of the system enables it to be extended in order to build business specific functionality and to enable an implemented solution to continually evolve to meet changing business needs. STL can provide on-site SharePoint expertise to work with you, assessing and recommending future changes to help support your business needs. Data integration STL has built an excellent reputation in integrating disparate systems to ensure that information can be shared electronically. Our experience includes integration with third party systems to enable two-way transfer of data negating any requirement for the double keying of data, and integration to enable the STL Technologies Limited Page 8 of 20

presentation of data from third party systems within the SharePoint application. Our data integration service will provide consultancy to review the integration requirements, identify and design the most appropriate technical solution, and then undertake development, test and implementation as required. Data migration STL has wide experience in the transition activities involved with the implementation of a new solution and the preparation required for effective data migration. This service will provide consultancy using tried and tested procedures to gather data migration requirements, develop scripting as required, and undertaking testing to ensure a smooth data migration at golive. Training STL offers customised and tailored SharePoint training sessions for system administrators, users and trainers. We can monitor how users are utilising SharePoint, including investigating any errors, to identify additional training requirements. STL can also provide targeted SharePoint training, including on-site training clinics, to help develop your team and enhance their skills. Microsoft SharePoint system health check The STL System Health Check is a proactive service designed to ensure optimum performance of your SharePoint application. The health check, recommended at least annually, will review all areas of your SharePoint implementation from system diagnostics to use of the application. We will supply a report that identifies any potential future problem areas that should be addressed along with advice and guidance to maximise use of the system.
