A Avanade Case Study
Navy Federal Credit Union (NFCU), the largest credit union serving military members and their families, found its legacy SharePoint document-sharing system could no longer meet growing content-management needs. The aging platform suffered performance and reliability problems, was out of mainstream support, and threatened business continuity and employee productivity.
Avanade re‑architected and migrated NFCU to SharePoint 2016 with a scalable design, improved disaster recovery using SQL Server 2016, workflow automation, and relaunched enterprise search — all with a migration approach that avoided downtime during cutover. The upgrade delivered faster access, better process automation, and enterprise-scale capacity, while redesigned DR ensures critical services can resume within minutes, providing a modern, resilient platform to support NFCU’s growth.
