Continental Property

Summary:

  • We created a SharePoint Online Document Management System with a Project Center
  • This enabled Continental Properties to work, collaborate and find files more efficiently
  • We also used HingePoint ProConnector to create a two-way sync between Procore and SharePoint

The Challenge

  • Users were spending copious amount of time searching for project documents ​
  • Working without proper naming conventions
  • Were having to upload/download documents multiple times between Procore and SharePoint
  • No navigation bar within SharePoint and were unable to work within their department
  • Using file servers and SharePoint, creating duplication​

The Solutions

  • Implemented an enterprise-wide hub system that searches on every site within the environment ​
  • Introduced a Project Center, where file structures are standardized so you can always find a file within two clicks
  • Migrated data from File Server to a fresh SharePoint site that enables collaboration
  • Configured HingePoint ProConnector to sync projects to their Procore instance
  • Trained employees on workflow of documents
