9. End User Adoption Plan
You need one. With no vision, there is no victory!
A documented plan will help increase the odds of a successful
SharePoint rollout.
When a document is required that means someone really has
to think! And then get it reviewed! And that means
collaboration happens which leads to more ideas..
Your end users should be a part of this process

10. Does your SharePoint Intranet Plan Suffer From:
•
•
•
•
•
Boring user interface?
No branding?
No dynamic content?
Poor Information Architecture?
Unidentified Governance Plan?
No Communication Plan?
www.ginamontgomery.com
12. Why do SharePoint Intranets Fail?
Gartner surveys
say that more
than 50% of
SharePoint
implementations
fail due to poor
user adoption!
www.ginamontgomery.com
13. If you build it, will they come?
If your users don’t know how and when to use SharePoint, they won’t!
WIIFM?!
Will I be more productive if I use this? Or is this just another demand from
management that won’t help me? I have too much work to do already!
A well thought out End User Adoption plan that includes a good governance plan,
good information architecture, and some adoption incentives can help your users
understand this.

What is SharePoint Governance?
Governance identifies lines of ownership for the business and technical teams
and identifies who is responsible for which areas of the system. The governance
plan also establishes rules for appropriate use of the SharePoint environments.
People
Process
Technology
Policy
18. Governance
www.ginamontgomery.com
Governance is a set of roles, responsibilities, and processes that are
put in place in an enterprise to guide the development and the use
of a SharePoint solution. These techniques should also align with
the enterprise’s culture and goals while enabling teams and
individuals to effectively collaborate and share information.
Key Words:
Enable
Collaborate
Share
19. Governance for Adoption
Step 1
Establish a governing body for the usage and management of SharePoint
environments by:
– Identifying appropriate business owners willing to provide strategic insight and
direction
– Identifying appropriate IT infrastructure to provide operational support
– Creating effective support system through proper channels of escalation for
end users
– Establishing governing usage and maintenance policies and procedures along
the way
www.ginamontgomery.com
20. Getting Started with Governance in 2013
What to Consider
Unused Sites
Social Policy
Site Management
Site Templates
Site Request
Change Request/Feedback Model – Support?
Naming Conventions
SharePoint Designer
Etc!!!
www.ginamontgomery.com
Description
What happens to unused sites?
Appropriate vs Inappropriate, Liking, Tagging,
Following, etc..
Site Owners need to know how sites will be managed.
Are they controlled? Are they managed by the IA?
Which templates are available and how will they be
used?
How will users go about asking for a new site? What
will be included in the new site (type of template,
customizations?)
How is support defined? To whom does the End User
address to get answers?
How will DBs, Servers, etc... be named? It should be
consistent.
Governing the usage of SPD for editing/designing pages
for a common look and feel

22. www.ginamontgomery.com
What is Information Architecture?
IA is your company’s way of describing, organizing and discovering your content
The Information Architecture Institute describes IA as "the art
and science of organizing and labeling websites, intranets,
online communities and software to support usability."
24. IA
www.ginamontgomery.com
Your information architecture helps users find information in
any of three scenarios:
– I know it does exist and I actually know where it is.
– I know it does exists, but I really don’t know where it is.
– I have no idea if it exists.
25. www.ginamontgomery.com
Why should I care about IA?
• Because End User Adoption relies upon this!
• Usability - Sites that lack a well-thought out IA tend to
become desolate. It is difficult to find information because
the site navigation is substandard
• Site Management/Administration - A good, thought out IA
will help address storage requirements and goals.
