OBS is recognised by many as the Australian leader in providing services and solutions using Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server. With over six years experience in architecting, implementing and developing solutions using SharePoint technology, OBS has provided SharePoint expertise to over 100 customers across Australia and the USA.
Our success with SharePoint lies in understanding that a truly successful SharePoint project requires the combination of three completely different IT disciplines- SharePoint Infrastructure and Architect specialists, SharePoint Development specialists And SharePoint Business Consultants.
SharePoint Infrastructure & Architecture specialists
Our infrastructure and Architecture specialists have an enterprise infrastructure background in products such as Active Directory, Exchange and SharePoint. Our team is able to provide architecture, installation, configuration and integration services to ensure each SharePoint implementation is secure, high performing, reliable and well integrated into the existing Microsoft environment.
Our specialists are credited with providing the architecture of three of the largest SharePoint implementations in Australia, as well as architecting the Microsoft Learning Gateway Solution, which Microsoft has since sold into education institutions across Europe and the USA.
SharePoint Development specialists
OBS’s SharePoint Development specialists are senior developers that have a background in .NET Development and have completed our internal training program on advanced SharePoint development. By leveraging our existing code library of SharePoint web parts and utilities, our team is able to provide high quality customisation and application development in a fraction of the time of our competitors.
Our development team has shown leadership in SharePoint across the world with the innovative workflow tool SmartLibrary, and through our white papers and speaker engagements at Microsoft events in Australia, France, Singapore and the USA.
SharePoint Business Consultants
A critical issue faced in every SharePoint implementation is in aligning the technology to meet business requirements, whilst at the same time understanding and considering both the people, organisational and cultural impact issues associated with the implementation of a new technology. OBS SharePoint Business Consultants have a background in IT Business and Knowledge Management and are trained in the discovery and development of business requirements for SharePoint.
