Business Drivers
• Consolidate 5 platforms• eDiscovery & Records Retention Policy• User Document Management &
Collaboration
www.lcra.org
Approach: Basic Strategy
• Soft Rollout/Early Adopters• Managed / Gradual Implementation• Over-communicate to Middle Managers
(especially Face to Face)• Utilize Super Users & established
Communications channels
www.lcra.org
Approach: Data Governance
• My Sites to replace personal drive shares• Available storage:
– Site quota = 500 MB– File size < 100MB– Vault items don’t count towards site quota
• File types to avoid:– Access databases– Files with dependencies, e.g. linked spreadsheets– Media files– Source control– Files > 100MB
