    Companies should not start the SharePoint implementation cycle without a proper understanding of how their business and infrastructure requirements align with the platform’s capabilities. This doesn't bring ROI and a solution intended to streamline work becomes an obstacle. Here is a checklist to avoid failure and make SharePoint implementation successful.


    Pre-planning
    Careful planning is required for successful SharePoint implementation. Because the unplanned extensions result in uncontrolled spreads in data and information which in turn increases management and maintenance complexities.


    Clear Strategy
    Having a clear SharePoint strategy is important and needs to fit with your overarching business strategy. The strategy must also continually evolve as business needs and challenges evolve along.


    SharePoint Branding
    Investing in SharePoint branding and design should be carried out in a very similar way to website UX design for increasing employee engagement and productivity.


    Release Functionality in Phases
    Plan the order features will be released and select the simplest and most effective changes to start to gain buy-in.


    Generate Excitement
    Launch campaigns help drive user adoption and generate excitement by involving sneak peeks, email countdowns, short video clips or ‘Easter egg’ hunts on the site.


    Create a Training Plan
    SharePoint training is one of the most essential stages of a SharePoint implementation to ensure that users are comfortable with using the system.


    Create a Governance Plan
    A SharePoint governance plan is documenting how SharePoint will be managed by outlining policies, processes and responsibilities to ensure continual and consistent success.


    Measure Success
    Once the SharePoint is established, goals and success should be measured and improved upon.


    Support Plan
    Once your system is launched, the next step is to consider how it will be supported. A regular SharePoint maintenance is essential for continued smooth operation of the overall SharePoint environment.
