Follow on Google News | Squander SharePoint search, or save tens of thousandsThe risks and rewards of SharePoint Search functionality. How productivity and ROI acan be achieved with SharePoint search.
Your people need to be able to quickly find what they are looking for. They should not have to go to ten different places to find it, if they find it at all. It should not matter whether it is in PeopleSoft, Siebel, SAP, their inboxes, a project site, or what-have-you. They need to find the right information. Their results should be in the first page the search engine returns. And when they click something it should teach the search engine that “hey, this result fits these words in the search box.” We want all this, and we want it to be secured. Secured so that people, even internal to your company, can only see what they have access to. What they do not have access to should not even show up in the results page. This is not too much to ask. This technology does exist. Shouldn’ The right effort and expertise pays off in real and demonstrable ROI. An average employee spends over 9 hours each week searching for information. They go through files, through sites, their inbox, their computer, they ping other employees, and on and on. About 40% of the time they do not find the information they are looking for and have to redo the work. They spend about six hours each week recreating work that they cannot find. This is a waste. Quick math shows this as about 750 wasted hours per employee per year. This lost productivity adds up fast and your business finds itself out hundreds of thousands of dollars with just a moderately sized staff. Ask yourself; is it worthwhile to invest in a custom-tailored enterprise search experience? We think it is. # # # SharePoint consulting and development firm.
