Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (SharePoint) 2007 is an integrated suite of easy-to-use server applications that provides a single platform to manage intranet, extranet and website applications across your organisation. SharePoint is to information what SQL Server is to data.
SharePoint 2007 will improve organisational effectiveness by offering one unified suite of enterprise critical needs such as managing content and business processes, enabling better informed decision making and simplifying how people collaborate.
Cloud2 specialise in delivering complete SharePoint solutions into the NHS and other health sector organisations. We have experience in Information Governance, Policies and Procedures management, intranets and extranets and representing NHS organisational structures and processes within SharePoint. We also work with the Common User Interface team to incorporate their deliverables into NHS projects. We work with partners and technologies to provide managed content access (using IAG), rich metadata (iBox), extended collaboration (OCS) and business intelligence (PerformancePoint).

Document Management
SharePoint 2007 provides a powerful document management solution including check in/out, version history and simple approvals as standard. This standard functionality can be extended by Cloud2 to provide a robust healthcare Information Governance solution, incorpoeate CUI components and rich policy and procedure management.
Collaboration
The collaboration capability of SharePoint 2007 extends to standard templates for team working, managing meetings, document workspaces, wikis and blogs. There are a further set of templates known as the "Fantastic 40" that are available from Microsoft as a free download. In addition, we have worked closely with the KWT (Knowledge Worker Tools) workstream from the Microsoft/CFH CUI project and would be able to assist with the implementation of the outputs from that workstream. These are freely available to the NHS and include guidance on Collaboration Srategy, Information Architecture and Search Quickstart. There are also solution enablers for Scorecards Solutions, Managing Meetings and Collaboration Fundamentals.
