benchmarking sharepoint: the sharepoint maturity model
DESCRIPTION
Torben Ellert will discuss how to address key SharePoint challenges in a manner that will increase the overall level of SharePoint maturity. The webcast features Sadie VanBuren's SharePoint Maturity Model, as well as real-world examples of public-facing SharePoint sites, and intranets.TRANSCRIPT

SharePoint Maturity Model (SPMM)
• Based on the Capability Maturity Model (CMM)
• Developed by Sadalit Van Buren (@Sadalit #spmaturity )
• Holistic model that sets up benchmarks for SharePoint
• Not developed for use on public-facing sites!
• Data basis is spread of three SP generations over 9 years
• The model is free to use, if you share your data (anonymously)

SharePoint Maturity Benchmarks
• PublishingHow is content delivered to various usergroups?
• CollaborationHow do groups collaborate internally & externally with SP?
• Business ProcessesAre related workprocesses interlinked, across organisational divides?
• SearchCan relevant content rapidly be located?

Core Maturity Areas in SP
No taxonomies in place, only standard sites, workflows and search. No or onlypoorly defined processes
Standard properties used, some custom templates, document version, and user-reactive elements in workflows
Managed (custom) metadata in place, discussions take place within sharepoint. Workflows are fully reactive, and cross department lines. Best-bets are utilised.
Document management w. revision. Universal use of collaboration tools. Emailcapture. Search is adaptive, with custom metadata and may be actionable.
Content is user-specific without duplication. Workflows cross firewalls, deprovisioning in place. Search is fully scalable, with possible autotagging.

SharePoint Maturity is Asynchronous
• Certain areas are better developed than others
• Organisational needs vary, this impacts maturity
• Uptake can vary by group
• Legacy issues can delay maturity
![Page 9: Benchmarking SharePoint: The SharePoint Maturity Model](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55946c141a28ab9e2b8b4726/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Multiple Tiers of Maturity
• Maturity is a function of time
• Each generation improves on the last
• Later generations display less spread in extremes
![Page 10: Benchmarking SharePoint: The SharePoint Maturity Model](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050802/55946c141a28ab9e2b8b4726/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Practical example: search
100Out of box functionality for query, results, and scopes; some additional content sources may be indexed.
200 Custom scopes and iFilters employed to aid the search experience
300Search results are analyzed. Best bets and metadata properties are leveraged to aid the search experience.
400Content types and custom properties are leveraged in Advanced Search. Results customized to specific needs, may be actionable.
500Users understand relationship of tagging to search results. Automated tagging may be used. High volumes can be handled.

Practical example: search
• Search: Level 400”Content types and custom properties are leveraged (in Advanced Search). Results customized to specific needs, may be actionable.”
• Areas of focus:Content types & Properties (XML)
Results customised to specific needs (XSLT)
May be actionable (XSLT / JS /.NET)

Real-world examples
• Customising Search & Result PagesAdapt XSLTs to match branding needs and presence
Use XSLT to drive content-specific logic in results

Summarizing
• ”If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it”
• Maturity takes time, but can be planned
• And it can most definitely be executed
• Choose your fights carefully
• Explore standard functionality, and its costs
• Find appropriate third party solutions
