Digital workplace

Search less. Get more done.

Information should be easy to find and sharing easy to understand, and collaboration should work across teams too. We structure the intranet and document spaces, set up permissions and support the migration of existing content into the digital workplace.

Your brief for OTOKO®

What we take care of for you.

We distinguish between binding company information, teamwork and personal drafts. Areas get owners, clear navigation and a procedure for outdated content. SharePoint, Teams or Confluence can take on different roles here. An intranet should provide answers to recurring questions; that is why we test search and navigation with typical tasks. More pages or a complete copy of the file server do not automatically make information easier to find.

The possible scope of services

  • Information architecture with areas, templates and owners
  • Permission model for Teams, SharePoint and Confluence with groups from the directory
  • Classification and encryption of confidential documents with Microsoft Purview or LAN Crypt
  • Migration of file servers and legacy systems with cleanup and retention rules
  • Governance with lifecycle for teams, sites and external sharing

We define the specific scope, your involvement and the acceptance criteria before the start.

Technology explained clearly

How we carry out the task.

01

Considering sharing across its entire lifecycle

An area is created, changes members and is eventually closed. We plan permission groups, external sharing and regular reviews for this. Particularly sensitive content needs suitable classification and protection measures; the specific technology is coordinated with how the content is used. During migration, we check metadata, versioning needs and existing sharing. Links in documents and embedded files are part of the testing, so that a technically successful move does not result in an unusable knowledge repository.

02

Handing over editorial responsibility and operations

Acceptance testing includes sample tasks for employees, access checks and a test of the agreed publishing process. Editors receive templates and clear responsibilities. Technical operations and editorial maintenance remain separate tasks with named owners. Good starting points are your main information areas, existing file stores and your teams’ most common search problems.

The handover brings together implementation and documentation. Together, we review the agreed cases and record any remaining tasks.

Before the first step

Your questions about Digital workplace.

Does the old file store have to be fully migrated?

No. Active collaboration, archives and content that is no longer needed can be handled separately. This reduces clutter and unclear sharing.

Is an intranet just an IT project?

No. Content, responsibilities and publishing must be owned by the business units. We connect these requirements with the technical implementation.

How does OTOKO® support “Organizing information by how it is used”?

We distinguish between binding company information, teamwork and personal drafts. Areas get owners, clear navigation and a procedure for outdated content. SharePoint, Teams or Confluence can take on different roles here. An intranet should provide answers to recurring questions; that is why we test search and navigation with typical tasks. More pages or a complete copy of the file server do not automatically make information easier to find.

What matters when considering “Considering sharing across its entire lifecycle”?
