Planning

- How the planning service works

Content and Code’s approach to implementing robust Microsoft 365 Implementation and SharePoint solutions for our clients is based on the staged, incremental delivery approach. We typically divide our projects into three discrete stages: Scoping & Planning, Build and Transition.
Scoping can be described as the ‘what and the why’ of the project. Activities conducted in this initial stage identify milestones and any task dependencies for the entire project. This effort is also used to highlight potential project risks and ensure all project stakeholders and resources are fully aligned and our clients’ expectations are fully agreed and prioritised. This stage typically includes (but not limited to) the following activities:
-Project definition session
-Requirements gathering
-Strategy workshop
-User research
-Technology assessment
-Solution overview
-Microsoft 365 roadmap
-Cloud readiness assessment
-Platform and solution assessment
-Migration readiness assessment
-Business change planning
The planning effort includes a number activities that follow on directly from the scoping and can be thought of as the ‘how’. This phase typically includes, but not limited to, the following activities:
-Wireframes and mock-ups
-Governance plan
-Adoption plan (training, communications)
-Information Architecture design
-Product specifications

This approach involves:
Plan – Discovery and health checks, design and transition workshops, low level design and solution write-up
Prepare – Implementation of pre-requisites, identity and supporting software to support the transition or migration of data, with full testing included and migration planning, communications, and training.
Migration – Beginning with pilot migrations, we move into velocity migrations and move users to the service based on the migration plan, which aims to remove disruption or downtime for end users, including reducing or removing any impact due to sharing restrictions. - Setup or migration service is for specific cloud services

Quality assurance and performance testing

- How the quality assurance and performance testing works

As we provide cloud solutions to our clients, quality assurance is critical in achieving our goal of delivering “right first time”. Testing against all client's requirements and driving the delivery of high quality code helps us to reduce User Acceptance Testing (UAT) effort and rework. Through the scoping and planning phases, we ascertain the level and depth of quality assurance necessary and tailor our QA efforts accordingly. During the project build phase, we focus solely on functional system testing of the solutions developed.
We utilise a Risk Based Testing, prioritising tests on functionality with highest potential impacts and propensity to failure. We continuously review test plans ensuring we identify and rectify all critical defects. On system test completion, we provide a QA Test Report summarising the test activities and any resulting recommendations. Where required, we also support client UAT needs by providing consultants able to perform UAT management and test analysis in order to guide client teams in the most effective ways to UAT the solution.
