Belfast City Council migrates to SharePoint Online with Proventeq, cutting downtime to zero

Belfast City Council, a major UK local authority, faced the challenge of modernizing its content management by migrating a large volume of business content from its legacy OpenText DOCS Open platform to SharePoint Online. The complexities included replicating library-wide and item-level security, matching the existing information architecture, and organizing user profiles for the new system. To accomplish this, they partnered with vendor Proventeq and utilized its Migration Accelerator software.

Proventeq provided an end-to-end migration solution that included discovery, design, and implementation. Their approach used tailored functionalities to automate the content transfer and conduct item-level audits to ensure data integrity and completeness. The results for Belfast City Council included vastly improved content availability and deliverability, optimal platform functionality for all assets, and a completion of the project with minimal organizational downtime and staff training required.
